Can you confirm if this is one of yours?
I can grab it for my last bid, final bidder crapped out on the guy and now I am curious as to why.
Did this one slip through the cracks?
or is it too good to be true
I really want it to be good
any info is greatly appreciated

Thanks

Ron, let me suggest you get the Serial ## on the underside of Bottom Bracket and then call Richard with it. Without that it would be very difficult without seeing the bike in person for anyone to determine make/year/etc.

Sounds like a grest deal if it is a Sachs.

I think that would be considered an off ebay transaction, and if it is you are asking to get scammed.

You also might consider emailing the winning bidder and asking him what happened.

Does that fork have "safety tabs" on it? Looks like there are little hooks behind the fork dropout.

This cat claims to have talked to the builder to id the frame, however he claims a Sach's frame start at $1400.00.

I would think if he talked to atmo he would know what current frames are priced. Buyer beware.

It is a scam. I got one of those a few days ago. Make sure to not e-mail through your personal e-mail address. If you go to E-bay scam page there is a lot of second offer scams.

yeah - bikes seem to be heavily targeted. i've received two of these "second offer" emails after losing auctions for frames.

they come to your email (but not your 'my ebay' page), reference the auction by name, your bid amount, and tell you to get in touch with the seller at an email address.

totally a scam.

Beware of all 'second chance' offers, most are scams. I bid on a Calfee last month and got 5 'second chance' offers from different sources, all with the same story...all scams.
If you are a registered eBay user and have a 'My eBay' page, click on the My Messages section. All valid eBay messages and second chance offers to you are posted there. If the second chance offer isn't posted there, then you are being scammed. Report it to eBay.

They're eyelets. This frame predates safety tabs. No idea if it's a scam though.

I meant those safety tabs where there is a little hook/washer outside the hub axle that you would flip over and snap into the tab on the fork... those things.

I wasn't aware Richard used eyelets though if thats what those things are.

Thank You,

Oh those things. No I don't think that's what they are. I'm pretty sure they're eyelets. Richard will put them on if you ask him really nice. It might cost you some Twizzlers too.

THE BEATLES lyrics - "Revolution 9"

(Lennon/McCartney)

[Bottle of Claret for you if I had realised…

Well, do it next time.

I forgot about it, George, I'm sorry.
Will you forgive me?

Yes.]

Number 9, number 9, number 9, number 9, number 9, number 9, number 9, number 9, number 9, number 9, number 9, number 9, number 9, number 9, number

Then there's this Welsh Rarebit wearing some brown underpants
About the shortage of grain in Hertfordshire
Everyone of them knew that as time went by
They'd get a little bit older and a litter slower but
It's all the same thing, in this case manufactured by someone who's always
Umpteen your father's giving it diddly-i-dee
District was leaving, intended to pay for

Number 9, number 9

Who's to know?
Who was to know?

Number 9, number 9, number 9, number 9, number 9, number 9, number 9, number 9, number 9, number 9, number 9, number 9

I sustained nothing worse than
Also for example
Whatever you're doing
A business deal falls through
I informed him on the third night
When fortune gives

Number 9, number 9, number 9

People ride, people ride
Ride, ride, ride, ride, ride
Ride! Ride!

9, number 9, number 9, number 9

I've missed all of that
It makes me a few days late
Compared with, like, wow!
And weird stuff like that
Taking our sides sometimes
Floral bark
Rouge doctors have brought this specimen

I have nobody's short-cuts, aha…

9, number 9

With the situation

They are standing still

The plan, the telegram

Ooh ooh

Number 9, number

Ooh

A man without terrors from beard to false
As the headmaster reported to me
My son he really can try as they do to find function
Tell what he was saying, and his voice was low and his hive high
And his eyes were low

Alright!

Number 9, number 9, number 9, number 9, number 9, number 9, number 9, number 9, number 9, number 9, number 9

So the wife called me and we'd better go to see a surgeon
Or whatever to price it… yellow underclothes
So, any road, we went to see the dentist instead
Who gave her a pair of teeth which wasn't any good at all
So I said I'd marry, join the ****ing navy and went to sea

In my broken chair, my wings are broken and so is my hair
I'm not in the mood for whirling

Um da
Aaah

How?
Dogs for dogging, hands for clapping
Birds for birding and fish for fishing
Them for themming and when for whimming

Only to find the night-watchman
Unaware of his presence in the building

Onion soup

Number 9, number 9, number 9, number 9, number 9, number 9

Industrial output
Financial imbalance

Thrusting it between his shoulder blades

The Watusi
The twist

Eldorado

Take this brother, may it serve you well

Maybe it's nothing
Aaah
Maybe it's nothing
What? What? Oh

Maybe even then
Impervious in London
Could be difficult thing
It's quick like rush for peace is
Because it's so much
It was like being naked

If you became naked
