    Is this cash only, like a real yard sale? Or will credit cards be OK?

    Like all the other Path sales, I'm sure you can pay by credit card. Tani said he will be there at 8am. Give a call to the shop in the morning.

    This is awesome! Maybe i can find a derailleur or end up buying a whole bike :) I just can't help myself at the path, it is like crack.

    I love STR I wouldn't have heard about this any other way.

    Edit: I ended up buying a new bike :p

    Cash only on the little stuff. I could be flexible on some of the bigger stuff.

    This is pretty different from our other sales. This one is all about used stuff that is cluttering my life, and inventory that is blemished, returned, or has overstayed it's welcome by years.

    Thanks

    I love my Paddy Wagon, and you should too. We have a 52 in stock. Let's work something out.

    There's some deals to be had. A lot of random things. I was able to grab an 09 Saint shifter and Rear Derailleur for a great price so there's some high-end stuff to be had.

    I went and got some awesome deals, including a new 180mm rotor, 160mm rotor + adapter, a jersey, Exiwolf 2.3 tire, and grips all for under $100. So pretty much I was able to fix up everything on my bike in one visit! I was also seconds away from picking up a set of Stroker Trial's for $50 but decided not to #-o

    Lotta misc stuff but with some damn good prices. Additionally, Tani seems to be very cool at negotiating on prices as well. Picked up my daughters first "Path" t-shirt and a new set of six six one pads for under 40 bucks. Worth driving out there and digging around. There are also a lot of deals on bigger tag items, but I had to monitor the spending.

    went there earlier today. was hoping to buy a demo on the cheap. Didnt see what i was looking for.

    Tani brought to my attention some new bikes marked way down.. i say, "i dunno, was hoping for a beater so i feel better about not buying another new bike when i dont really need it". w/o flinching tani says "hey buy a new one and I'll ride it hard for me to break it in for you".

    What a seasoned salemen and all around helpful guy.:lol:

    Some great stuff out there and good deals but unfortunately for both Tani and I, i still came home empty handed. :(

    Saw a few STR peeps in the shop. :wave:

    Got a nice Specialized saddle for a buddy for $10 bucks. Looks like it was a take-off. Great price! Was also going to grab the "test ride" Rocket V saddle for $5 bucks, whick looked practically brand new, but decided not too. I should've grabbed it.#-o My buddy grabbed a couple of shirts for a great deal. Can't wait until the next yard sale!

    So you bought the chain checker

    Was there early and Tani was really pushing the "Chain Checker", at $5.00 you couldn't go wrong but that was one of those specialty tools that I would have to pass on (still using a ruler), I am sure you made Tani happy Carl. ;)

    went by and didn't see all too much I needed. was tempted by the brand new XT 4-pot brakes, but it's a little silly for my uses, seeing as all of my forks are post mount :lol:
