With four days to go the bike has received 6 bids with the high bidder being Ken Denny at $661, $214 from the Buy It Now price.
Now, the question is, why wouldn't Ken Denny (FLM [Former List Member] and generally acknowledged to be The World's Foremost Expert On All Things Vintage Lightweight Bike) _not_ be spending an additional $214 to insure the bike would be his and his alone???
Is his opinion, like mine, that this bike is overpriced at the the Buy It Now price of $875?
Based on the above I think you'll all have to agree that the answer is in the affirmative. I rest my case ;)

Chuck-
You have proven that you have a penchant for "getting in the last word", even
when that last word makes no sense. Its also well known that you have a
personal beef with this Ken Denny person as well. If any body can agree on
anything, I think that it is just you just "Balkin Sour Grapes". Isn't it about time
you changed the topic? You sure made me regret outing the bike in the first
place. But since you have finally rested your case, I must say "thank you". Much
appreciated.
