Just had to rant. I can understand wanting to check out something before you buy it.
But, I'm trying to sell a mini bike. It's a custom, I paid way too much for it (over $3,000 to build, CMB Mini Bike that's what they cost, or more). But, it was a promotional/attention getter for a business. It did it's job. Now I want space/parts.

Anyway, I keep getting the, come by and ask every detail.
Kind of like their research, for their own projects.
Wasting tons of time, but never buy.
I know it's not cheap (little over a $1,000), but why even come by then.
Just gets old.

The money is just going towards more Mustang parts anyway

So what are the specs on the bike? What engine? What color is that? How fast is it?

I agree.

I'm trying to sell my GT. I gets lots of phone calls, from mostly kids. I have my asking price, and after 20-30 mins on the phone answering questions, i get the "well, will you trade it for my 4-wheeler plus $3000 cash?"


Personally, if a person is asking say $10K for a car, you should at least be able to afford that before even going to see the vehicle. If my budget is $5000 for a car...why would I go look at $10K cars??
