Subject: Quick question about your mountain bike listing
Hi, I'm interested in the Trek Marlin 7 you listed. Based on similar local sales and the noted wear, would $850 work?
If $850 is tough, is there any flexibility-perhaps meeting halfway or including basic accessories?
Thanks in advance-does that price (or a close option) work for you?
