A day later, he told me he worked in Raleigh, about 20 miles from my house, and asked if I ever came to Raleigh. I said I come in sometimes to shop at Costco.
The next day he offered me $280. I am leaving town for several weeks, so I told him he could have it for $300.
He asked if I would bring it to his workplace, so I did today.
Thanks for all your help in regard to pricing and being flexible. Before I asked for your help, I planned to put it on CL for $250.
I was looking through traveler info and came across this. I got your dad's bike from a guy named Steve selling it on ebay for $300 (I think he is myrtle beach). I assume it was the guy you sold it to and he was just trying to get out of the bike what he paid for it. I have quite a few travelers so it is in good company over here. Thanks.
