Dale has informed me that offering items for sale to the list without including prices is a no-no. I completely understand his position on this. It most certainly was never my intention to upset the applecart! Therefore I will be putting the parts up for auction on eBay and WILL NOT BE ACCEPTING private offers. My apologies to everyone for the faux pas.

However I still would like to see the parts cabinet go to a good home. In keeping with list rules I will put a price on it: $0.01 (a penny), plus one good classic bike story, plus lunch (nothing fancy) if the delivery distance is more than 1 hour's drive.

Parts assortments will be probably be listed sometime after the July 4 holiday. My ebay ID is wbaseley. By way of apology to the list I will take 10% off the winning bid for anyone who mentions the CR list.

I trust the above is sufficient to correct my blunder; if not I do hope Dale will let me know.

Mea culpa, Dave Baseley in Berks County PA
