Halfords second hand bike

[Accy cyclist]

I went into a Halfords branch today looking at bikes. I saw they had a slightly used CX Team Boardman for sale reduced from £899 to £699. The assistant told me it'd been brought back by a customer, that's why it had 200 quid off. It had dirty tyres and the saddle stem was scratched from being moved up and down. He told me that if i wanted it i'd have to hurry as it was the only one they had at that price.
When i got home i saw that they have it online reduced by 200 quid. So it looks like he was trying to pass the used one off when you can get brand new ones from them with the same reduced price online. You think they'd have at least washed the muck off the tyres!

If you want it then make them an offer. I'd suggest starting at £300.

Why would you offer £293.01 more that they have it up for?

They want £699 for it.

If you had come in earlier you would have seen a decimal point between the 6 and the first nine, which is why I added a bit of humour to the post.

Accy has cleverly gone back and edited it out.

Yes i saw the decimal point and dived in to erase it but too late it'd been spotted!

And got me a right wrist slapping.
