Shameless plug!

In this day in age, when you buy stuff online, or used or from someone you don't know its a crapshoot. I just think it should go on record that when Bam Bam says you getting a like new, or used twice kite he means it. Thanks bam bam for getting me a good set of "used" kites. They are like new, used like never kites. Some one buy that man a beer. Honesty is huge, and you get five stars. Thanks for helping me out for the summer. It was money well spent. I certainly got what I paid for.

when selling used kites:

Buyer: How many times have these kites been used?

Me: "I don't kite everyday".



Very Happy

Its more like a rule of three. If the guy says I have 4 sessions on it. That means 12 sessions. If the guy says - man I've used the kite once or twice. That means he has 7 sessions on it.

Which makes for an interesting situation when you are trying to sell your money kite - what is three times a shitload of sessions? Three shitloads? Thats a lot of loads of shit to be kiting?

Yes dude - exactly. Here is how the conversation goes:

Potential buyer: "So, uh, how many sessions do you think the kite has on it"
Me: "Don't know man - thats my money kite - I would estimate a shitload"
Potential buyer (thoughts inside his head): "Hmm, lets see, three times a shitload equals . . . three shitloads - that sure is a load of shit"!!

LOL!!!

hahahah.....classic Moto. Well for the right price even a fully corn-laden piece of shit will be a golden nugget to somebody. It's complete...ebay it....or consignment shop it. Tis' the season...it will sell.
