Cannot find one I like...and if I did find one...private seller demand cash up front...well, sometimes no everyone have few G cash available...therefore I purchase my bike using credit card thru eBay...though I over pay in interest on the debt & extra shipping cost...towards the end, the bike turns out great & very reliable...2nd owner, never down, low mileage for 18 years old....then what I did is that I sold all my other toy back out on eBay, with those money, I'm trying to payoff the bike debt...in a way, eBay is like a swap meet or garage sale...works both way...you trade on toy for another..

-PCIIIr - $70 shipped (300ish new) that's probably my best deal as far as ebay goes.

but
-954 top triple with risers, and low rise handle bar - $90 shipped (the risers go for that alone, handle bar is 100 new, and top triple that was drilled correctly for risers)

-vrod headlight - $120 shipped

-yana shinki wavy disk rear rotor (not a china one)- $30 shipped

-shorty levers - $50 shipped


those are just a few of the good deals, but i've bought so much and sold so much on ebay(completely parted out bikes).


as far as advice for buying - if you see what you think a great deal is, just remember that it's not the last good deal and there will be other even better deals out there, so don't get carried away with paying to much for something no matter how bad you want it.

There is two distinctive case I always remember.

1. I bid and won a used air compressor. Seller ships me a wrong model, then I ask for exchange, seller refund my money in full & say just keep the air comp. Just keep it because shipping back and forth will cost more....so I got a free air compressor.

2. Bid on a Thermos bottle for keeping my coffee hot at work. won thermos for $4 free ship...seller listed as USPS priority shipping, when I got the item, seller pays $9.85 shipping....I bought for $4

LOL...
