I do have a cool Kijiji story.

A couple of weeks ago I saw some CCM cufflinks listed for sale. So I emailed the person to ask what vintage they were. She responded that her dad had worked at CCM during the 70s and 80s and they had been his. They were 10 bucks so I said I'd take them. She emailed me back and said her dad also had a box of catalogues that he wanted to sell, if I was interested. I said I was and long story short for a very reasonable price I ended up with 24 catalogues (1911 - 1971) in good to excellent condition. That kind of thing doesn't usually happen to me. Who's to know. I'm usually SOL.

Great score, even if it wasn't a bike! I'm surprized I didn't spot that ad. Don't worry, you'll score bigtime on a bike. It just takes time and sometimes a little luck. ;)
