    I purchased two of these on Steep and Cheap, not knowing what size I was, and didn't like it. I put it on ebay. This is absolutely insane. Retail price is $64.99. Anyone else have this happen to them? I really can't in good conscience sell it at this price...

    You've got to be kidding me! I got one from steepandcheap as well, but I returned mine because I didn't like how it fit. Now I am kicking myself!!!!

    I didn't like the fit either, or the fabric. That's why I put them both on ebay. I was just hoping to get my money back, now I'm thinking I can get a new road bike tomorrow! It still has an entire day to go...

    Sure you can....capitalism at its best! If the bidders didn't do their homework to find out the MRSP, then it's just too bad for them. I have sold used bike parts on ebay that went for almost the price of brand new. I didn't ask them to bid high, but if someone wants to do that, who's to argue?! Good for you for turning a profit!

    (And besides, it would be against ebay rules not to sell it to the winning bidder, no matter what the bid!!! )

    You wouldn't believe how often that happens on high ticket items like motorcycles, like Emily said people just don't do their homework. Recently I saw a smaller cc sportbike (where the owner had done some custom paint and a little bling) sell for almost $8000...the bike wasn't worth a nickle more than $5000.

    update

    Well, it sold for $83! It has $65 on the attached tags. I've been paid and already have positive feedback, and I haven't even shipped it yet. Not sure what's going on...but when I ship it today I'm going to include a reimbursement for $25. I'm still making a terrific profit, and I can sleep tonight. Yeah, yeah, I know, I'd NEVER be able to run a business. Guess it's a good thing I'm a teacher.
