Montesa VR in a box
« on: October 11, 2013, 02:49:52 pm »
Well I put the VR project up on eBay.  Not sure if anyone down under would be interested, but just thought I would let you know.

Ooops.  Just noticed people have started bidding already.

The VR sold, but I think the buyers wife found out about it.   ::)

He said he bid not knowing it was "local pick-up preferred."  He lives 6 hours away and I offered to meet him half way.  So, who buys a VR and then will not drive 3 hours to pick it up?  I let him off the hook and re-listed it with a $1099 USD Buy It Now.

Hate to do it, but I'm selling the VR project piece by piece.  Was I the only person that thought these bikes were cool?  ???
