Re: Buying Used Bike Without actually seeing it

I've bought about 5 or 6 bikes just based on pictures alone and never had a problem. I'd do it again with no hesitation. Just be sure to pay $500 less than you would if it was in person so that you have a buffer just in case you missed something in the pictures.

Re: Buying Used Bike Without actually seeing it

Square Trade is like a middle man for internet deals. What you do is deposit the money into a square trade account, the bike is shipped to you. After you have viewed the bike and approve of it, square trade then releases the money.
