"I think someone probably got a screaming deal on that Peugeot- 238.09 shipping included. If you look closely at the pictures, a lot of what appears at first perusal to be rust also is showing up on the alloy bits as well. I think the bike is splattered in dried mud or the like and most of that would probably quickly clean up. I wonder what it'd have fetched if it'd been cleaned up for an hour or so?

That seller is a maniac! Read his "ME" page on eaby. I always check his auctions out for a laugh. I can't get enough of bold font and no paragraph breaks. I don't think there's a guy out there that knows less about bikes, and he's a UBI graduate no less. Most of the time it seems like the bike he is describing, he's only seen a picture of? Wacky stuff!
Hope the buyer got a screaming deal, but I'm guessing he'll just be screaming about bad packing and some un-mentioned damage.
