Hello Alister,

I just happen to see your ad, and love the machine. 

I am contacting you from the USA  - Arizona.  I'm not the guy you mentioned above.

That's almost the exact bike I have been hoping to find. 

If you care to name a price, I'd like to know what it is.  I can arrange the payment, collection , and shipping from my end if necessary but would welcome any help or advice if we can get to a deal.

Here is my contact info if you would like to email or text.

area code is for california. he claims to be in arizona.     ???

[Dave]

Yes, I see what you mean. 925 area code is normally associated with parts of northern California. However, Arizona is adjacent to California and it may be a mobile number. Suggest to try calling it if you can.
