Re: [RBW] Re: OT: What would YOU do?
Thanks folks for the responses. I haven't had the time to do anything with it in the past couple days, but when I just checked the CL listing, it is gone. (Deleted by author, is what it says.) Wonder if the poster actually sold a Brooks saddle? We'll probably never know. -Shawn -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.

Re: [RBW] Re: OT: What would YOU do?
Speaking for myself, it's not so much that somebody would use my pic without permission but what it says about such a person. In other words, maybe they're perpetrating a scam on an unsuspecting buyer, or worse. So I'd flag it at least. I'm not sure I'd contact them directly though. If you want me to flag it as well, let me know and state how to do so. I think numbers matter in such a scenario. • Perry -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.

Re: My ex-girlfriend selling it. I contacted her when I first saw it, and no, she isn't.

Re: [RBW] Re: OT: What would YOU do?
I would contact her and say it's not kosher to use your photo. But not before buying the saddle. $50 is a great price. :) On Wed, Nov 13, 2013 at 7:00 AM, Ron Mc wrote: > maybe your ex-gf is selling it? > > > On Wednesday, November 13, 2013 1:12:32 AM UTC-6, Shawn Granton wrote: >> >> Hello friends, I figured I'd ask the great braintrust that is the Riv >> list for a little assistance. >> >> Today I took a peek at Portland's bike section on Craigslist, as I am >> wont to do from time to time.
