Sweet deals on TradeMe

[jeremysprite]

Everyone just missed out on a ZXR250a for $2,090!
Was watching it, but didn't have the $$$. Only had 23,000kms (are zxr speedo's 5 or 6 digits? could it be 123,000kms?) cletis read the 100m reading as well lol

Then there's a nice '98 RG150 in Aucks, $1400 no reserve. 12,000kms.

A TZR250 ('86) for $950 Buy Now (read:give him $750 cash for it) just freshly restored, pretty good nick, for those in the Nelson area.

A GSF250 Bandit for $2800 Buy Now in Dunedin, silly man can't be bothered paying another $20 for another auction, so listed it under his old DR250 in Dirt Bikes section auction, instead of in Sports Bikes where the bandits go for around $600 moreGSF 250 (http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=77805923)

A ZZR400 in ChCh, Highest Bid Wins apparently. 60k though, would have to look at it personally. No ones bid on it yet, it's at $1200.

And here's a winner - A YZF750R for $3500 n.r.! Don't know what these normally go for, but I do know that ZXR750 of similar age/k's would go for around $4500?
Apparently they're one of the most underrated bikes, the YZF 600,750, 1000's (Thunderace, Thunder...thing, and Thunder...bike.) Dereg'd.

That's my watchlist for the week. I've got no money, so I thought I'd share the deals (or what I think are deals, they're probably not) with everyone.
:whocares:

We've got 2 bikes
We've got no money

Have to watch that RG auction. I plan to sell my 2 next year, would be good to see the market value of them (which looks like it's going up with other auctions going past 2000 bucks)

[Coyote]

Jeremy, you asked for a buy now. I suppose he did have one untill the first bid. Did you see how much it was?

[jeremysprite]

ah so said 23,000kms was more likely a poor 123,000kms. (there was an oil leak in it as well)

Yeah 1 Bike, No Money.
Adequate Verbal Communication Relayed.

[jeremysprite]

nah there twas none. I think he probably has an idea that his bike's worth more than $1400, hence why he won't accept offers of $1500 (gag) or a buy now.

That's good of him. I hate the people who try snap it up cheaply before the auction heats up. I was offered 4500 for my old CBR an hour into the auction appearing. Think it was a dealer asking for it too

[jeremysprite]

damn! You not take it I guess? The rg's better are they?

[jeremysprite]

The RG150 had a buy now on for $2300, til a bid was placed, if that helps Coyote.

Oh and she is also a westie as well.
So not far to have her check it out etc.

Already spoke to Julie this arvo, she is getting an fxr.

Hey Crashe do you live off Flanshawe out west? Thought I saw you the other day on my way home

No, not down there, but I go down there alot to see me brat and granbaby.
You live down that way?

[Fub@r]

I'm on Royal View Road which comes off Flanshawe

Ahhhhhhh I go that way sometimes after getting off from the motorway to get their place.

[Coyote]

Didn't take it, it eventually sold for $5350. And the RG is cheaper :p Gave back the CBR money to Dad (which he got the montesa with) and was loaned the cash for my RG (which I've now paid back). And I'm currently paying off Jamezo for his wrecked RG, which I plan to tidy up these school holidays :D

And that is a help. If I tidy up both my RGs nicely I'd like to get 2000+. I don't mind if the amount of money I put in is what I get back, it's the learning experience of doing up the bike that'll make it worth it

[jeremysprite]

too right. I'm 'doing up' an old rs125, probably won't make a dime out of it, but it's fun. (when I get time, and I'm not studying).

Did you grab a deep sea dredge from the north sea to dig this thread up??

[Tazz]

Pretty much. Caught some gumboots while I was at it but can never seem to get a pair.

Thought it would be better than starting a new one :cool:

That link was $1R sitting at about 2k, looks like the seller got cold feet though :o

Makes a mockery of the $1 reserve option eh... What a joke. Tard me should ban pricks like that.... Assuming he only did it as the $$ were too low for his liking

[Tazz]

*drool*

This looks like a good buy for someone. Wish if was for sale a few months ago.

Yeah it does. People don't get serious until the end of auctions like that as well so you can't really have any idea what is going to happen until the last 10 seconds XD

Willing to negotiate on price and at $7000 it's already pretty cheap for a busa.

$2g for a molested, 27 year old 250? I guess I don't see the value.

[Tazz]

Fair call. Don't buy it :p
I paid 2.5k for a 23 year old molested 250 and have loved every minute of it.

[GSW]

This sounds like an Orsum bike
