Awful lot of trouble? I've seen desperate people break into parked cars to steal loose change off the floor. I agree it doesn't seem right for someone to take advantage of RBW's low (below cost) introductory poster price and flip for profit, but it's a free market out there - which the good folks at RBW know all too well. - Andrew, Berkeley On Thursday, July 5, 2012 3:45:58 PM UTC-7, Joe Bernard wrote: > > The listing claims package unopened.

The listing claims package unopened. Who orders a poster for 20 bucks, then turns it around for maybe a $30 profit sight unseen? That seems like an awful lot of trouble for 30 bucks.

Sorry, as pointed out to me, there are no radials as its 36h Crow's foot with a 4cross instead of 3.

[RBW] Re: Come On!
Looks like a Crow's Foot pattern. It looks like it has a set of radial spokes (for the centers) and then two of the same length spoke for the sides of each set of 3.

Re: [RBW] Re: Come On!
Hey, man- "shop victoriously" as the eBay TV ads used to say. Those who can't be bothered to do a little research will end up paying more than they need to for things. I see current items go for more than retail frequently on eBay. Caveat emptor!

[RBW] Re: Come On!
Can we discuss the spoking pattern? :-) Has Riv ever actually offered that? Seems unlikely. Hmmmn, would require two different spoke lengths, if I see things correctly. ~pb On Thursday, July 5, 2012 10:53:40 AM UTC-7, Peter M wrote: > Someone is selling the new poster on ebay if anyone just cannot wait > to see it. > > > http://www.ebay.com/itm/Rivendell-Bicycle-Works-Poster-/12095817?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item1c28d9c979 -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.

Price will probably end up higher than the $32 current asking price from Riv. I shake my head.
