By no means am I a expert collecter,but I do own and operate a small retail outlet in denver,specializing in brewerania,and fat tire bicycle related items,some of which I sell at ebay.

My father was a avid mountain biking fan,and reader of the fat tire flyer magazine in the early days,when mountain biking was unknown.He passed his intrests on to me,and here I am.

My best advice to buyers using ebay, is always buy new,unless it's a antique/vintage item.

Shipping prices are the biggest complaint from buyers.Ebay is filled with helpful links/tutorials to avoid being overcharged.It only takes a few minutes to learn a lot.

ups shipping starts at $5.00 on average

u.s mail starts at 0.44 cents,which is the method I use

media mail is cheap,but I had a few things damaged using this method.

online ship calculator is'nt accurate because sellers add handeling charges from a 1 dollar to more,so its hard 2 say what the real ship charge is.I prefer flat rate shipping,or free ship.
