What nuance of red should have @Pearl paint his 2014 EM SS to get $1500 for it? Let’s debate.

$50 shipped is probably a deal though. If the pricing was like $100 I’d do the leg work for ya mitchy.

I'm dealing with the 2016 white one right now, going to be texting him soon, 3 hrs earlier where he's at. Although this is a nicer looking bike the other is 5 years newer. It's just going to be an in between bike that I can just move all my parts too. I don't think steel will last me very long but for 400 bucks it's not a game changer. I spend that much for beer. Thanks for the pick up offer.

confess it, you're really doing it so you can be twinsies with me, @Pearl, @grilledcheeseking and @rosceaux !
 
So far the White guy is entertaining other offers so the Blue might be in play. Just pisses me off because these are 100, to 200 value frames pre Covid.
 
If I could get $1000 for my setup I think I would part with it, covid prices are covid prices...

For how picky you are you should give up then, if you want something this hard to find you’re going to pay a premium for it. Any bike that’s 5 years old isn’t going to look like it’s been in a box it’s whole life!

part of me wants to buy this just so i can sell it to you for double.

Mine did. One tiny little mark/blemish. Carbon fork has zero marks/blemishes. The headset only lasted a month. That being said, I got very lucky. Learned afterwards that this was a warranty replacement and was only ridden a few times.

The luck part plays into this as well!

You did get lucky! Ah, if only I hadn’t been too short...btw the fork still has no blemishes! The good think with these headsets is that bearings are readily available, I changed it right away when I got mine and never had issues. My white was in showroom condition as well, but that’s because of my used bike frames pusher pampers his bikes , you may know him as @Strugglebus ...

Dude has been taking his time but just sent me a video of the frame and fork wrapped in foam and packed in a box full of more foam, should ship today. I’ll try and tell the wife I bought an used mattress for the garage, it may work...
 
Does this look like $1000?
