When selling, choose your main photo carefully. This seller choose the slightly rusted wheel.....

I always wonder with these ads:
Is there criminal intent to scam or just a complete incomprehension of what constitutes garbage?

Shimoto!
This isn't Craigslist, but it's the local equivalent. People don't really use Craigslist much in Utah. In any case, I present a 21 speed with Shimoto gears. This is the one and only photo provided, no details except it's "good" and "not road alot". Seems a bargain at only $600.

The dude picks up dog poo for income. I understand his high hopes for selling that bike for $500

Truth in advertising.

It always amazes me when folks don’t bother to clean up a bike before taking pictures, but this guy didn’t even finish excavating it.
It’s only $30, but bring a shovel.
