A Little Rant on Selling Stuff.

I've noticed over the years that folks will put up stuff for sale asking X amount of dollars for them and then state, either right away or if they don't sell, that they will be scrapped/junked/tossed if they don't get what the are asking. Seems odd they wouldn't just send them to someone who was willing to pay shipping/handling.
I gave Marty a trunk full of parts one time since I was in the neighborhood, he kindly gave me a tire for a FA50 I had at the time. Everyone's happy.
Just saying.

I was quite happy with them too. I still have some of them. Thanks again Kirk.

I'm the type that normally doesnt throw anything away but this d*** Elite's Frame & fork are getting close. I'm sick of looking at it & taking up garage space. The frame has never been titled but can be, so it is a clean titled frame. I'm only asking $50 for the d*** thing. I have gotten 1 reply on it from eliteguy50 but it was like $90 just to ship it to him, other than that nothing.
