Yard sale steal

Went with a friend on her Sunday "yard sale search". Not my thing but her second stop was out in the sticks and there was a pile of old cycle stuff. Most trashed but there was a tattered box with one of these in a plastic bag in there:



The woman told me it was a "hard duffel bag" I knew better. It's a Bikers friend bag.

I could also tell it had never been used. It's a ML Basic so ill need to order the lumbar roll. I had one on the Hog years ago and you can really pack a ton of stuff in it.



It's on the Cali now but comes off in seconds so ill move it from scoot to scoot.



Ok now the deal. She asked for $50.00, a steal. Before I could say yes my friend jumped in and said "are you nuts $50.00 for a duffel bag !" The seller came back at $35.00 and the deal was sealed.

On the way back I was told that I was an embarrassment to art of "yarding"......

Be Big,
AMAC

That's a sweet deal! xD
You can just about always haggle your way down at sales like that.
Mostly, cause the stuff that's out there, is because the seller wants it out of sight.
Sometimes, you might hit an absolute gold mine, and play the sale right, you might just steal it.
