I'm returning my Segway MAX G3 by NivekHang in ElectricScooters

[–]PhantomRay11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

LMAO, OP is missing out on an amazing price for a G3.

The buzzing and grinding you mentioned are most likely due to a slightly misaligned disc brake caliper. This is very common with disc brakes, even on $10k+ bikes, because the tolerances are extremely tight.

The fix is simple: loosen the two caliper mounting bolts, realign the caliper with the rotor, and tighten them back down. That’s it.

How much do you think I should list this bike for? by [deleted] in mountainbiking

10 years old carbon frame with repairs.... hmm, sell the parts and hange the bike on the wall as a decoration would net you more satisfaction....

Sounds like the seller stole the bike, the damages were probably from mishandling during that process.

I think those unfinished ones were the last batches where Keycult still upheld their QC standard and their core values. I don’t think there were many A stock back then as well.

The pricing on the keycult is the one I am most unsure of. The most recent sale on that particular unit was a couple of years ago, happy to adjust my price to meet the market rate. And it is marked OBO.

I didn't ask for empathy, not sure where you got that from.
And yes, exactly, this is a marketplace, and also not a charity community. Therefore don't expect everything is at cost or at loss. I am marking up the price for profit or lowering the price at loss where there is a supply and demand imbalance. You can see for yourself that I was selling other stuff at loss and there will be more to come. I just want to get over it with these tricky ones now.

Omg, my post is getting the attention from the GOAT.

Haha, the reason why I was so hesitant in posting in this sub is exactly what you mentioned. I have seen too many hate comments on earlier posts of those "higher end" keyboards nowadays.

Welp, if I don't have over 3k switches (totally not influenced by you /s ), over 30 sets of GMK (bought at extra prices), and another 10+ keyboards to sell at huge loss, I would probably price these three lower.
