No...it's gotta be true! The bike is stored in Germany though, and I have to send a check for 10k and he'll send me the difference back in cash plus an extra 1k for the trouble...and i'm mailing the check to nigeria even though the bike is in germany...

How, in ONE MINUTES TIME, could this have been "flagged for removal"?

One minute after being posted to CraigsList or one minute after the link was posted here?

Sorry tramp, I trumped your offer.

I had a large inheritance that I needed to "share" with the gentleman selling the bike before I had to pay capital gains tax....

Darn it! I miss a great offer again.

I had 6/60 numbers correct in the Irish sweepstakes, all I had to do to
collect was send, $2,200 for the paperwork, but the wife
said we don't have that much in the bank.
