worked out great
he offered 3500 cash by email
i was gonna wait it out since i had a lot of emails on the bike, but no one was really coming through, so i said fuck it, get the money and get out, most of the other people were offering 3500 as well so...
so then he starts talking about maybe 3400 cause it needs a tire and the pics look rough etc
so when i met up with him i told him i had other people offering 3500 so if he didn't want it, no big deal, i had others lined up... so he said he would do 3500 without even seeing the bike
when he did finally see it, he said 3500?? no problem at all
i guess the close up shots of the damage i took makes the bike look a lot worse in pictures than it really does in person, he said the pics did the bike no justice
listed monday, he wrote me tuesday, looked at it friday and gave me 1k deposit, and then came got a ride saturday, gave me 2500 cash and drove it home
i think i'm gonna look around for a 250 or 500, just a little commuter for good gas mileage and to have fun on the turns. i don't need anything more than that. i'll wait till i find a motivated seller and get a deal.
i intentionally shot the pics close up to show every detail of the damage, and i knew they looked bad, but i'd rather have someone show up and be happy, instead of showing up and being like wtf is this
