    Due to overwhelming response to my previous post of apparel for sale, I've decided it's best to accept PayPal payments for those who want to "buy it now" otherwise things will be sold on an in-person, first come, first served basis. Either way, PM me to get my PayPal email address or for viewing times.

    Thanks!

    Oh, that's funny. I post PM sent but you have already contacted the seller without posting and you have first go at it. :flip

    Apparently this place runs like Craigslist. :csm

    He posted on my main flea market ad and I contacted him because it's a trade deal that interests me more than cash... So not sure how that's like Craigslist. Also, I stated PM me in the ad since I don't catch all the posts in the flea market thread.

    Nothing to get excited about. Blake reached out first, and I let Gordy know that, so I'm not sure what the issue is about.

    Assfault, any chance you have info on what other bikes those forks will fit? I went to the Ohlins site and it was less than worthless. I have an 01 Honda CR250.

    Olas and I communicated on a deal, met as planned, did business, easy peasy deal.

    Last week I made two CL deals, waited at the meeting spot and neither showed up or called to cancel.

    Big difference between here and CL.

    The issue is if you have it posted in Rockies and there is a deal going on, you should edit your post to say so that morning, (not at 3:31 PM) We have no idea what is going on in other threads and certainly not in the "Main" flea market or in PMs. I said PM sent and that should lock it in if I spoke up first to THAT ad. I agree, when I contacted you today, you let me know that Blake was interested in trading.
    I suppose that it would help if things posted in the Rockies FM that are posted elsewhere only had a link in The Rockies FM to the "Main FM" ad that it is actually being sold in. That might help keep the ad confined to what the seller can keep track of. :dunno

    No sweat, it's your bike to sell, I just hate it when you never know if something is still for sale or not and anyways, Blake will be selling it again in <6 months with even more mods.

    The deal was not done yet, so why should I update my ad when nothing is set in stone? Now that I know it is, the ad is updated. I communicated with you what was going on, I didn't lead you on in any way. If you're upset about the time you wasted writing a 2 sentence PM because Blake and I were in the midst of a negotiation, then apologies to you, Sir.

    It's no big deal.
    I just didn't appreciate Blake posting the :ksteve at my post that said PM Sent with the ad still running and he had not responded before me.
    I'm just overly sensitive or not sure how this is supposed to work, I guess.
    Cheers!

    Exactly. Nothing beats cash in hand.

    No idea to tell you the truth.I originally bought then to install on the ADVStrom I built a few years ago.
    I ended up going with XR400 forks because they bolted right up.
    Other than that, they are old stock Cannondale forks from when they went belly up.
    They are pretty nice, but have been sitting in my shop now for 5 years or so, time for them to go.
    I dont know if they will plug and play onto another bike. I know these are both basically left forks with the brake lugs., but that really wouldn't matter only using the one side.
    Maybe someone on Thumpertalk might know something.

    Up for sale is a cool vintage modular desk. It is actually 3 peices and works really well for getting into tight spots. Old homes, tight staircases etc... It is in good shape, not perfect but functional and clean. It has tons of drawer space, cool leather top, looks like something Nucky Thompson would use.

    Email for phone number!
