Tired of your new iPhone 3G. Can't stand that Macbook Air you got for birthday? How about that crappy Sony laptop? Well, you can trade any one of those for a 2007 Dahon Mu SL... LOL

Hey... I'm all for capitalism. If you can get $400 for it, more power to you. I do not think it's unethical at all. I just thought it was funny.

Cool... I really wasn't intending to do anything wrong; I'm just kinda strapped for cash and really want an '09 Mini peace

[I reduced the price to $350... is that an acceptable compromise?]

The first one you asked about is a complete unknown. The other two look to be typical low end folders.

Would you like a free Bike Friday? No problem... just get the job as their SysAdmin / Programmer! One of the benefits is a free Bike Friday.

Ok ok... forget the whole "try to make a profit" thing I am going to just give in and try to sell the bike for what I paid for it ($300) plus shipping (from zip code 84720); I really just want to sell it so that I can order the '09 Mini before I leave for my tour. Thanks, guys!

You may get more bites on ebay. When I do my typical craigslist search, your entry doesn't come up at all.

hmmm... do you know how I could change that? Or does it have to be coming from a major city to be in those searches? :-/ Maybe I should advertise it as coming from Vegas (170 miles away, but the closest big city) Thanks!

Hi oboeterry,
I may be interested in buying your 8HN at that price. What would shipping to 10019 be?
thanx,
Barry

I don't know what could be done. It's weird. I can get other stuff in St. George, but nothing in the bikes section comes up at all. It's like google completely skips that portion of craigslist during searches. I tried searching via live.com and the index page for the st. george bike section came up with your listing, but not the individual listing.

Very odd...
