|   Have you noticed a drop in 29er stuff on ebay of late? | ncj01
Dec 30, 2003 6:17 AM | | I keep a pretty close eye on it, and there are usually several things on there. Now there's only 2 or 3 things, 1 of which is Fast Freddy's Top Cap. Speaking of which, I have mine installed, its pretty cool...although it does say 29 foot, its all gooooood....
But there's only that monkey on there, and not much else. Figure its just that time of year? I figured people would be trying to sell stuff like madmen to help cover Xmas expenses. I guess the flip side is a lack of buyers this time of the year. Meaning its a good time to buy when you see something.....I guess. Oh well. Bored and that's my Thought De Jour. |

| only hardcore 'net geeks are on the 'net this week | team_bfd
Dec 30, 2003 11:22 AM | | Most of the adults who surf, post, buy, sell, or generally dork
around on the internet do it from work, and many (if not most)
are American. A huge number of American salaried workers aren't
at work this week. Nor were many of them at work last week.
Not much mystery there. It's the holidays. Happens every year,
when normal adults spend time eating too many cookies, watching
too much TV, and generally not geeking around on the 'net unless
they got a new PC or new broadband 'net access for Christmas.
Watch for a huge spike of new auctions on Monday, January 5.
Then watch for that trend to continue throught January and much
of February. That'll be when to snap up yer bargains, because
the flattened wallets of America will be more likely to be
selling than buying, especially after the collective Visa
bills begin arriving at your friendly neighborhood mailboxes. |
