So, long story short...

Travis J. Todd made the mistake of

buying a bike at the flea market

My Advice to You is

trust your instincts and don't buy the first thing you see.

Here's the whole story

Flea markets are renowned for scammers. Bring an expert or wait 'til you find someone you know is not out to hustle you. Just trust your gut. Don't buy a bike just on looks. Especially for more than you think it's worth.

I think flea markets are all about who's hustling who. So much bargaining goes on that an item hardly ever goes for a “fair market price.” You should think about this before you assume you're getting an awesome deal.
