New member, spent this week reading much of this forum. I'm very interested in buying a 650. Bidding on one now, don't expect to win. I live in San Francisco bay area, CA. Anyone know of a dealer with a good deal on 03,04, may even look at 05. Looked at one today in this area a dealer had. 03 with 9000 mile list 7500. I think he missed the boat.
Thanks for any help. Thanks for a great forum.
Fairfield Cycle Center? Hehe. Was just chatting with a guy over the weekend about their pricing.
Marin Cycleworks is advertising OTD for an '04 at $7499 on CycleTrader. The ad doesn't seem to go away, so I don't know if they can keep churning 'em out or not. However, that's what I did not quite two weeks ago.
They're
still listing it at that price, so maybe they could find one or have another hidden away at that price. (They suggested to me that's all they had.)
This guy on craigslist seems nice and honest enough. I chatted with him for a long time on the phone. I looked at the ride when he had it for $5950, and I just decided it was too much. Then I noticed his ad went to $5650 firm. Now it's down to $5350.
After seeing the photos and stuff, I wasn't getting warm fuzzies about the possible damage that was not visible. However, it may be worth checking out or having checked out. (I never saw it in person because he missed my confirmation call for our meeting, and during that time, I found the CycleTrader ad and decided to expand my budget and buy new...)
