This is a tad bit embarrassing, but a few years ago when I still only collecting schwinn bicycles (krates and ballon tire bikes, I was at a swap meet always looking for another 50 pound monstrousity to roll home when I came across a big wooden box with a name engraved on top that I recognized, "compagnala" or something like that. What did I know? I was 200 pounds and rode bikes with 20 inch wheels meant for 10 year olds. I opened the box and what was inside, a bunch of bike tools. I asked the gentleman in the lawn chair how much he was asking for it and he said,"100.00" I thought about it and having to carry this big heavy box all the way back to my car and said, "have a nice day," and kept on walking.
Looking back now, that's probably one of the worst best thing I ever passed on. If only I knew what I know now. Anyone else want to confess what jewels that walked away from?
