I got 5k and an NOS bango, take it or leave it...

Well,well. All the legends in one thread. Good too see yall. There are alot of jokes being offered, and thats cool. If your seriusly considering these bikes. send me a pm, or e-mail. There is no bidding and this not an auction. These are being offered too vintage members before going to e-bay.

I haven't really paid much attention to Race Inc sales. Do they bring crazy money like $1K for a frame/fork or a more reasonable $300-$500, if that? Nice looking bikes but nothing too special IMHO.

race inc. To answer your question. Yes, and no. He dont have a comp. at home, I do. We have nextel, so if you have a question I can get it answered.

alan, your right nothing special , but......

can you please take off the tires and tell me what kind of tubes are on the bike. also, please check inside of bottom bracket for any rust. thanks in advance.........

tone BANGO

The blue one is betty nice!

I remember hearing the words "a baby's arm holding an apple" at the end of a song by the not so famous "The Tubes Group" band

TONE...he so funny!

Who is huntcart? six e-mails. I've looked through the directory but can't find them. Please help with info.

Nevermind. I made the connection. Just remembered another thread I read earlier today.

That is the only buyer I know that would probably give 4k for those bikes. Heck, Huntcart might even throw in a bango!

Stop the madness.. In all seriousness Dave, your friend's best bet would be to skip this thread and go straight to e-bay.

Also, please try to convince him to sell them separately, he will make so much more money.

Nothing but jokesters in this thread.
If he lists them at .99c each, no reserve, he will get the results he is looking for.

Better yet, he should just keep them. he'll regret selling them later..

astro, I have no controle over what he does. Ii told him too seperate them. His bikes his deal.

Retrodave, Your freind realizes that all the $4000 offers were a joke, right? I'm no self proclaimed expert but from what I see those bikes are worth about $300 each. I'm not trying to upset him, but I hope he understands that or he will be sorely disappointed for sure. The chance of selling them together is pretty slim. Just my worthless 2 cents worth.

Mr. Hays I know this too. But telling other people this is somtimes hard. Idont think he will take it toooo hard. I am going to put them on e-bay for him. He will not seperate them though.

I'll give him $500 cash, I have to go to the VA to vistit a friend next week and can pick up then.

i don't get the resistance to separate the bikes for sale. obviously he can do whatever the hell he feels like doing, but frankly, it's dumb. the result will be him selling at a pretty deep discount out of some misguided thinking about "keeping them together", then the buyer will most certainly turn right around, combine the best of the two bikes into one really nice bike, and sell/part out the leftovers for a nice profit.

they ain't orphans, they're bikes. the blue one's pretty sweet, the red one has a cool MCS stem. they're going to get chopped and parted out.

ok fellas i've had enough of all the "play the joke on the newbie" stuff i will settle for what is truly fair for them and before i do i will dig up a shop manual that has some info on the bikes and the company who made them. i understand that 4k was i joke so i played along for a while to test you guys that would be honest about the value of them. at a later time when i've done more homework on them i will split them up; and yes i know whoever buys them will probably chop it for frame/parts to make a nicer one. i kinda thought that they would make a nice addition to someones collection if one already had a red one or a black chro moly one. i don't seriously collect bmx like all of you i stick to the 1920's to 1960's schwinn stuff and do restorations on them. this was a learning experience as well as fun no ill will towards anybody here and thanks for all the suggestions. if ya still want them or one of them pm me or e-mail me.

Byrons $500.00 sounds like a pretty good deal, they stay together, in a VBMX members hands and in FLA....

Ummm,is a posting a binding contract? GULP...

sentimental value mate !

"I am going to put them on e-bay for him. He will not seperate them though. "

Coming soon to a TGIF near you...

My offer is real & fair. And I may not be interested next week. Make the call.

Byron, I like the way you do business.

A quick e-Bay search of completed (and Not Sold )shows my offer is a fair one. If anyone really thinks these are worth $5K, they have been smoking way too much Gainseville Green from Miconopy
