Black On Black Ivanpah (SOLD)

Removed pics(too long to load with them)

This buggy now is in a Green Monster theme!
This will be sold with barrows "not" the bigfoots. It will come with all monster logos, a buggy bag, splash grard, 3 back rail covers/pads to make the bag stay in place much better.
The buggy is in great shape (it was babied)
Looking to get a fare price but not break your bank. I have over 1500 in it with out the big tires. Looking to get 750 "without" barrows/800 with barrows - and you pay for shipping.

:wee:

It is clearly obvious that you are not "interested" with no communication in over a week and very little in a month, also not holding to your obligations to me on schedules that you make. You can't say I have not tried. This sale is not just affecting me it is also holding up other people that i care about. How ever this is not the place for this! :no:

Would love for you to have it but Cash talks

whats shipping like to the WestCoast?

Chad - 13-7-2011 at 03:36 AM

Some where between $80 and $120 but will not know exact numbers until it is broken down and boxed up. That will not happen until it is sold as it is still my only buggy. (right now there is no wind, well at least when i am off work?) so it is not being ridden. It will come in two packages one will be the axle and one will be the rest of the frame. i will not make any $$ off of the shipping, you will get charged only what i pay but for this price you are way under retail.

thx

Shoreline, CA riders you better jump on this NOW.

I boxed my axle by telescoping 2 of the fedex triangular shaped tubes with sections of pool noodle inside in 3 places to keep it still. The side rails take a large dimension box that I'd make myself if doing it again. All the little stuff can fit in the box with the side rails including barrows. Kent has it down to a science with perfectly sized boxes though.

Yes he does I remember getting my monster from Kent in one large toy box that had to be less than 3x4, I thought I was good at puzzles....:thumbup:

Chad - 13-7-2011 at 10:41 AM

I wish i could use one box but my axle is 5 foot long and i can not find a box that long with the width that I need? I think the box will work great but the tube is going to be the interesting part.

BeamerBob - 13-7-2011 at 10:58 AM

those fedex tubes telescope pretty easy. Best to keep the axle separate since it is so long.

Chad - 13-7-2011 at 11:08 AM

would you say fedex is the lowest price?
I have to drive about an hour to get to a fedex place

Thx Mike will do!

When I ship, I usually use 4 boxes. One box is a long 4x4 box that holds the rear axle. The other is a larger box that holds the front fork, downtube, nuts/bolds/parts, rollbar, seat and all the rest of the gear. The third box is a custom made box that holds both frame rails. There really is no good way to pack the rails in a normal box unless you want to use a box that is 4.5' long and about 3' wide. You could add the rails with all the other parts into one huge box but the shipping on that giant box would be a fortune. The last box is for the tires.

Shipping from east to west coast will run about 90-100 bucks. That is what it normally costs for me to ship from Vegas to Florida. Best shipping costs for me has been UPS but we get a good discount with them. Do not go to one of those UPS stores (mailbox etc, stamps etc, shipping stores) in the strip malls, they will charge you an arm and leg on top of the normal shipping costs. Instead, get the packages completely boxed up and then go directly to the UPS shipping offices, you can print labels right at the UPS office and it will be the actual shipping costs without the expensive handling charges the strip mall shops charge.

You can get rates right off of the UPS or FedEx websites for each box before you go there so you will know exactly what the costs will be.

Hope this helps. That is an awesome looking buggy. I really like the black on black. The price is disgustingly low, someone could end up with an awesome buggy at a real bargain price. 750.00 is cheaper than you can get a PL bigfoot buggy for and barely more than a Comp XR+.

Chad - 13-7-2011 at 12:07 PM

That is some good info!
also thank you kent for the rave on the buggy price. I am loosing my butt on this deal but i really want a custom one that i design.
This is at about half price like you said.

black on black ...... my favorite

..... Not ready for another major purchase after all those Gin kites ..... however.... 2 months from now .... there will be some buggy money ........

labrat - 15-7-2011 at 01:52 PM

Well, I asked the wife again. Despite my best attempt at creative accounting, It’s still a No.

I have less money now than I did when you posted it the first time. Too bad, I could fix your shipping issues. Drive down, pick it up, make a couple of stops here and there on the way home. :smilegrin:

I hate seeing deals like this sit. Someone must be able to remove the temptation. You could either buy it or provide the funds and I will buy it on your behalf. (please)

Back to picking the junk pile for me.
