this was entertaining. We have a number of used-bike broker types here in southern california..it's interesting, the few I've dealt with seem not to care at all about bikes, it's just a way to make some extra money.. they might as well be selling used men's-wear. probably inevitable given the high prices for some items in the last few years, that some guys would take advantage of the situation.
