Hoarders and Hemorrhoids

I was asked the other day why would someone want to buy someones old junk..

and quickly my friend replied....ya know you rotten old fuck...the saying.........

"one mans junk is another mans treasure"

well i guess he's right because i myself have been known to hoard a small collection of to some worthless crap...

i also pride myself but tell few how i once loved the world of Ebay.....

over the years ive scene quite a change in the once was a super bargain house for the
unwanted,
old and hard to find items...

anymore its now just become the Amazon for worthless overpriced junk....

but that in all im still drawn to it like a car crash..and find simple amusement in what still pops up there from time to time ..the little treasures folks seem to be hiding away but now are ready to cash in big...

Just like that there is sucker born every minute waiting to scoop the next soon to be valuable turd........or the one coveted thing a ma-jig they never had as a lesser person but now have the grip or use the easy to pay for 48 months payment plan....

dont like it???
who gives a shit cuz you as the buyer have all the rights and can send that hunk of junk back  no questions asked

So tonight i thought what the hell lets take quick look into the world of vintage mountain bike crap...its a place were the old unwanted 26inch wheeled bikes go pasture..but some still seem to find a huge value in them,
along few other completely dumb over priced shit..

selling for...8K...

what in gawds awfull hell is this seller sniffing

Ive been watching the value of these Klein for the last few years..and im still picking at mole wondering what in the hell is the infatuation for these sure they were cool looking and all the big tubes great paint and smooth lines.  great tight ass geometry..but too often they rode like a broken covered wagon..

get a flat on one and get ready to finish dead last with greasy mits and  ruined shorts trying to pull the wheel out of those dumb horizontal dropouts...

oh and you thought modern day internal cable routing was a pain the dick.


id be throwing tools at the first sight of this job

I suppose when you look into the craftsmanship of this GT FS..i can kinda see the asking price..

But you gotta ask yourself    you gonna really ride this poor handling turd..?

seems like alot of grip to hang on the wall and stand back and shamy talk over

That Kore stem and that first edition  SDG saddle are worth rant all by themselves 

Id give $650.00

Current buy it now $89

seems pretty steep to me...

The Cinelli stuff has this weird following but i dont see almost hundred buck for a plastic sticker of soft core porn..hell you still gotta buy the solid chunk of aluminium to put it on 

god i hope the Evil Dude didnt pay full price for his chix..

whats it worth to me 7$

yours for $499

Im not not completely convinced i dont need this..

the elevated chain-stays..

that long ass top tube..and the 90s paint scream on your left KOMers  Rock and Roll is coming through..

the only thing that scares me is the effect of how shitty the brakes probably would feel..

My paying price 75$

CERAMICSPEED Oversized Pulley Wheel System – 

Just how many watts do you think you will save?  

• Is it worth $250 per watt?
