 Re: Deacon's Bike
Just so you guys don't think things go smooth for everyone but you. I bought two coaster brake 20" wheels on ebay last friday. I paid with paypal so it would go quickly. Okay in all honesty the engine setup went a lot quicker than I thought, and it will go even faster next time but the wheels now here is the story.
I bought and paid for them on friday last week. So yesterday early I emailed the seller to ask how he shipped them so I could keep up with it. He didn't answer so today he called me just now its noon on wednesday.
Oh I'm sorry charlie, I over sold them we don't have those wheels now. I can send you chrome rim ones with white tires. I can ship them today by us priority mail you should have them by next week.
I wonder why the **** he didn't tell me that last friday. I was ready for those wheels like yesterday. I have the engine on the bike, the cable run and the kill switch on there as well. So now I get to twiddle my thumbs for three more days. What a crock. I might just ride up to the thrift store to see if they have a 20" kids bike for sale.
Of course this bike I'm building isn't a priority my china girl bike still runs well. Knock on wood. |
