I have nothing against people trying to sell something that is genuinely 
rare for a very high price. What I dislike is when someone tries to make 
believe that something is rare when it is not. I think you can practice 
capitalism without being a deceiver. As far as I'm concerned, taking 
advantage of naive or uninformed people is certainly not my way of doing 
business!

You know what? The web crawlers are gonna grab your email address 
('cause this list also appears on the web), and you'll receive spam like 
never before! That's the price you'll have to pay for posting a 
motorcylcle-related ad on the CoCo list.

I'll take this as an attempt at humor.
