Buggy wanted!! (Houston area)


Hey! I finally have my ducks in a row, and I am looking for an affordable beginner buggy. This will be used mostly on grass, and some on the beach. I have a 4m and 6m kites, been flying static until I felt comfortable to get rolling. I am north of Houston, I'll be here all winter, and was thinking of going to the dead bird buggy bash, but was hoping to have the basics underway by then.
Thanks!

I know you said you were looking for an affordable beginner buggy, but dylanj423 is selling his Libre Full Race buggy for a mere $750.00, and he's somewhere in that lonestar state. He's been having trouble posting a pic, but it would have to be in pretty poor shape to not be worth his asking price IMO. I hate to promote his buggy, because I so want it for myself, but things just haven't worked out for me in that way yet. I bet if you send him your e-mail, he'll be able to send you some pic's.(sorry, Dylan, if you are unable.)

you want my buggy... trust me... if you are in north houston, i can deliver for free.... i am in south houston myself... why pay $400 +/- for a decent used when you can pay $750 for top end used?? especially on the beach, stainless is the way to go...

... just sayin...

if you really wanna treat yourself to a screamin deal, i can help you round out the small sizes in your quiver with some world-record style race kites, too :)

Hey! Thanks for the replies! That sounds like a great buggy and a fine price for sure! I travel around the country all year, az, Dallas, Des Moines, ny, and Houston, so mostly grass and hard dirt. I wish I could afford that buggy, I just don't have that much to spend...
If anyone wanted to do some kind of partial trade for a tube guitar amp or PA system I could do it, but I just don't have that kind of cash.
Thanks!

I am totally willing to pay shipping, also. It doesn't have to be a local sale. A folding buggy might be attractive...
