Buyer: Hi - I saw your bike posted and would like more information on it please. how are the tires?
Seller: Thank you for your interest. They were recently replaced and are in excellent shape.
Buyer: Ok - is this a 10, 12, 18 or 21 speed?
Seller: This is a 21 speed.
Buyer: It is difficult to see from the one picture - does this have disc brakes?
Seller: It has Avid Juicy 7 Hydraulic Disc Brakes
Buyer: would you consider anything for trade?
Seller: Not at this time, but if it helps I'd be willing to deliver the bike to you and allow you to try it out.
Buyer: Ok, I live in Bogota, Columbia, South America, so the trip may be costly. 
Seller: You're in luck.  We're planning a trip to Bogota, Columbia.
Buyer: Wow - what luck! Ok, since the bike is 8 years old, I can offer $650 for it. Is that something you would consider? 
Seller: That's a serious offer, but the bike cost far more than that new and it has been maintained properly.  I'm also bringing it to you which shaves a lot off of delivery costs.  $700 sounds better to me.
Buyer: Can we make offer contingent upon seeing it in person, and trying it out? If it looks good, then I will pay 700
Seller: That works for me.  Worst case scenario I'll use the bike on the trip.
Buyer: thanks alot - see you in Bogota!
Seller: Thank you! See you soon.
