I understand that concept when it comes to new stuff from a shop, but my point is that anyone with half a brain knows that a private sale second hand bike would still be bought for lesser money, even after the 'price is put back up'. It's one of those pointless things people add to their listings, along similar lines to 'not in a hurry to sell'. Just shouts out that the item or bike is overpriced/not priced to sell.

He is counting on somebody with less than half a brain to come along and part with their cash. No harm in trying.

Thankx but that's still way above my budget.

I don't want a new one. I'll just damage it and it will be "well used" within weeks, if not days...
