Some people seem to have a lot of nerve when it comes to selling stuff on E-Bay. A perfect example is selling this FREE at the dealers Buell tire gauge.http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/New-Harley-Davidson -BUELL-Tire-Pressure-Gauge_W0QQitemZ300296768863QQ ihZ020QQcategoryZ50461QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmd ZViewItem

Ebays full of ripoffs. Electric supercharges, charging for the bootleg XB Shop manual, "performance chips". But hey, thats the free market.

Not often but sometimes it works out in your favor. I lost an auction for a set of black push rod covers and another came up. I offered to buy it now and guy told me to make him an offer he couldn't refuse. I offered what I offered on the previous plus shipping and never heard from him again.


I ended up winning the auction for less than I offered him.

Same thing happened on a full set of saddlebags and tailbag for an M2.

I pmed a dude with a high ball...He said let the auction run. I bought it for $100 less than the offer..I think it was because he didn't take paypal.

I see all the free stuff that was given for sale on ebay. Does anyone want to give away their stuff that I missed out on? It would be going to a good home to be used and taken care of

I usually snag a few extras of the freebies if possible, and ship them to overseas/deployed badwebbers. I am tapped out of the tire gauges, when it warms up a bit I will commute a bit to get some more.
