me and this kid planned on meeting at a AAA so i could buy his 04 cbr 600rr for 4800. we were going to meet in a hour or 2 and i was on my way home from bank with the cash when he calls me. he says some guy called him and offered him 5000 and he would be there wensday becuase he live 1.5 hours away. so he is not taking my 4800, i was like your going to risk not selling it for 200 bucks. i know the guy is not going to give him 5000 becuase is the picture you cant see the peg broken and the sifter messed up. i did not think it was worth 4800 but becuase i wanted 1 now and they seem to be hard to find around here i did not care. but i am not giving him 5000 for it. i hope when i call him thursday he did not sell it so i can offer him 4600 for it lol. now i go back to looking for a bike

 

have u checked craigslist.com?
when i was lookin for my bike i checked every section within driving distance everyday about 10 times lol.
i endedup finding mine on ebay, but my friend just got one saturday that he found on CL.

i know how you feel there is not much of a selection around my area either, but i wouldnt buy a bike for more than i was willing to pay bc "i want one now"
ur spending alot of money and as many people on here will tell you "the perfect deal could be a day away" so maybe, although this was irritating, you may find a nicer bike for less.

 

Been there done that, called about an fzr600 last year, made my offer and the dude was like cool, come and get it at 5 pm, so I went to the bank, and he called me and said somebody offered him like 100 more, so I was like, I thought we had a deal, and he was like yeah, but somebody wants to give me more, I was like fine I offered $200 more and it was cool, then half hour later he calls me back and tells me somebody offered him more, right there and then I was like, go ahead and take it then and hung up the phone

 

Its a double edge sword for those people. On one hand, the extra money is nice. On the other, you gave someone hope and your word. I would like to think that Id stick with the first person interested in the product. Unfortunately though, nothing was in writing so they can do whatever their heart desires.

Definate bummer for you though, I understand where your coming from. Just tell yourself it happened for a reason, everything does. Youll end up with a better bike.

 

well i have looked up on u haul that they have motorcycle trailers you can rent and i have 2 people in my family with cars that can tow. there is 2 good deals in akron ohio about 110 miles from me. i am thinking maybe i should do this.

 

Its a sign for you, a better deal will come your way. Best of luck to you!!

Let us know what happens

 

see, maybe i was right?
lol good luck man hopefully one of these work out.

 

He's scaming you dude, there isn't anyone offering him ****.

 

that is what i am thinking. so thrusday when i call him and he still has i am going to tell him to meet me at the AAA probley expecting 4800. but i am not giving gim more than 4600 maybe 4500.

 

I remember one time i told a guy at E-bay i could pay him cash at hand, and pic it up my self at his home, he did not want that at all.[8D]wt?
