I'm still trying to figure to what the words Merckx and Bianchi refer.

Is this what some used to call a cheap shot?

I'm sure that an opening $1. bid is designed to show early interest, but what's with doing that with the steep Buy Now and what probably is a proportianally steep reserve?

Just curious and critical.

I purchased a nice assortment of goodies and frames from a PDG guy several years ago after one of Schwinn's earlier crashes (95?) . Nice stuff- it included some experimantal Paramounts and a recumbent three wheeler they played with in an HPV competition in the 80's.

While these things were not profit makers for the firm, I doubt those were what caused their subsequent spills and their eventual withdrawal from the races.
