This add has to be fake!! A 350x in what looks like really nice shape for $1000?? It has a phone number, not just an email address..

Somebody grab this..now!!

Great price. It's legit call and buy it if you don't want it, buy it and throw it on ebay. I am sure you could make a few hundred

Scored!! What an awesome machine..so much is still original. Plastic, tank..all in amazing condition. The exhaust is not, but who cares.

As far as talking him down..no way. Someone called his cell while I was standing there. I overheard the guy saying I'll pay more than asking price..seller had to say goodbye like 5x.

I paid asking price and giggled like a dumbazz all the way down the highway!!

I'll post pics when it gets home and I get it off the trailer..

He was an older guy, and he said he just looked on CL to get an idea what to price it..couldn't find any other 350x to compare and just took a stab at it. I told him I couldn't believe that his phone wasn't ringing at midnight..this is a crazy deal!

Got my pics

Great score. Don't forget, the less excited you look during a purchase, the better ;)

Nice! Gotta love it when these guys give you the heads up eh? Same thing happened to me in May. Somebody had posted an ad for a cheap 250R on eBay and I looked at it and was like hmm that is close to me. I said nah and closed out. Just kept thinking about it and looking and the auction page and finally hit the Buy it Now lol.

Actually it was me that started the thread, I thought I would give heads up to another since I already bought a trike last week..but the more I thought about that thing sitting 40 minutes from where I do business it the more it bugged me..

So I bought..I would have kicked myself in the ass if I let a clean 350x for $1000 slip by!! I hate missing a good deal!

Bought the 350x for $1000, sold for $1900 Canadian..did nothing but an oil change and a fresh plug.

Deals like that one don't come around often, but it does help refinance the toy budget..

Sorry to see it go though..probably won't see another opportunity like that soon!!

So what's next????
