• ZERO- WHERE DID MY AD GO?
    • It has likely been deleted for running egregiously afoul of the rules below. Feel Free to try again

    1- DO NOT ATTEMPT TO SELL THE FOLLOWING ON BARF:
    • animals, though free re-homing is ok.
    • anything illegal.
    • drugs, legal or not.

    2- Sellers, for best results... please read and follow these instructions:

    • Asking price [MANDATORY] in the BODY ONLY. DO NOT PUT PRICE IN THE TITLE
      • motorcycle or other vehicle:
        - make [MANDATORY]
        - model [MANDATORY]
        - year [MANDATORY]
        - Pictures [FIRST THING THAT WILL BE ASKED FOR IF YOU DON'T, BUT NOT MANDATORY]
        - mileage
        - title info
        - current condition
        - maintenance history
        - accident history
        - location
      • If selling riding gear, include:
        - size in the title of the thread. [MANDATORY]
        - in your post, include: intended gender/body weight/height/inseam/waist range that best fits the item.

    • Do not include the price in the title. You won't be able to edit it later. Put the price in the body of your post.
    • DO NOT INCLUDE LINKS TO 3RD PARTY SALES SITES Copy/paste your ad to BARF and make sure it includes the info above.
    • Edit your original post and change the price there... many buyers will not look beyond that point if you change the price later on further into the thread. Also, remember to add SOLD to first line of the first post when the item has been sold.
    • Please use the "Report this post to a moderator" (
      ) option at the lower left portion of the post if item is sold or to report erroneous posts or threads, and it will be taken care of.
    • With any indication that an item is sold, the thread will be locked by moderators. It is not fair to other valid ads to be pushed down the list when side discussions bump a sold ad to the top of the list. Moderators will do their best in changing the title and adding a 'sold' to the beginning of the title to save a few clicks for others.


    3- Buyers, BEWARE!!!

    • Pricing - Know the current market value of the bike. Check Kelly Blue book, NADA, CycleTrader, Ebay, Craigslist (even though some people on Craigslist are asking non-realistically high prices and will never be able to sell the bike at their asking price), and know what the current market value of a similar bike is before considering a purchase. Consider the maintenance work or fixes that YOU need to do to the bike, and factor that into the price. It is ok to pay more for a bike that has had all of the maintenance work done to it recently, or pay less and get a bike that needs some work, but you must know this in advance and be ok with it.
    • Inspecting the bike: if you are not experienced yourself, have a mechanic or an experienced friend check the bike before making a purchase. Crashed bikes:This is even more important if you are buying a bike that is being sold at a cheaper price with damages that the buyer is required to fix. In these cases, doing a frame check that will show any frame/fork/geometry damages is HIGHLY recommended. Do NOT simply rely on the information that the seller is providing, even he/she may not be aware of all the problems. Have the crashed bike checked and know what you are getting into.
    • Clean title, Salvage title A clean title doesn't mean the bike is free of serious issues. A Salvaged title doesn't mean the bike may have any problems. Every case is different. Some bikes are seriously damaged in a crash, but an insurance claim is never made on them, so they still have a clean title. Some bikes have had mostly cosmetic damages in a crash, but the insurance company decided to pay off the bike and salvage the title rather than spending the money to fix it. Know what you are getting into and don't make any assumptions based on what the seller is telling you.
    • Registration: Know about the current registration status of the bike. Check with DMV if you have any questions about any possible back fees and other title/registration questions (out of state title, no title with bill of sales only, etc.) before purchasing the bike.
    • Some additional tips: You can find some more useful info here: http://www.bayarearidersforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=216958

    4- DO NOT make your opinion known in the seller's ad

    • Comments within a sale thread should be on topic and educational. Aggressive critiques and inside jokes will not be tolerated. Constructive dialogue is a valuable feature of the barf classifieds section and community as a whole. Flame wars and unsubstantiated accusations help neither seller or buyer. Don't fuck it up, because the next step is disabling the "reply" feature entirely.
    • If you disagree with a price, keep it to yourself. The seller has set the price. If you don't like it, don't buy it and move on. If you really feel strongly about it, then PM the seller.
    • If you are interested in an item, feel free to PM, email or contact the seller privately. Feel free to post if you need clarification... however, your post should be in line with above mentioned rules.
    • If you are aware of a serious issue with an ad (SPAM, stolen goods, a frame damaged bike being advertised as a 'never crashed' bike, etc.) please PM a moderator about it.

    5- DO NOT SPAM the classifieds section on BARF

    • Spamming entails using only the classifieds sections of BARF without taking part in other sections of BARF (regardless of whether the ad is for a personal item or a business.) The appeal of BARF classifieds is to enable and connect BARFers with some established history on BARF to one another.

      BARF isn't craigslist, ebay, cycletrader, etc. Buyers who are looking to buy from random strangers do so on one of the above mentioned sites. Those who only post in Classifieds sections and don't take part in other parts of BARF are no different than any other random sellers on Craigslist, etc., and should use channels other than BARF to try and sell their items.
    • If you're affiliated with a store/shop, please contact budman regarding sponsorship options. ALL non-sponsor commercial posts will be deleted. Site sponsors should post using only one account that is assigned a BARF SPONSOR tag.
    • We encourage the use of the classifieds by active contributing members. New members may post in the Classifieds forum after establishing minimal history on BARF (15 days and 15 posts). If you actively attempt to circumvent these minimum requirements only to post in classifieds, your account may be suspended. After reaching these minimums, posting only in the classifieds without taking part in other sections of BARF may result in being banned from BARF.

    6- DO NOT repost funny/strange/not-related-to-you ads from Craigslist or elsewhere on BARF or anywhere else for that matter.
    • No reposting
    • No reposting
    • No reposting. If what you're about to post isn't for sale BY YOU, don't post it.

    7- SELLING FOR A FRIEND:
    • Is not allowed.

    8- Feeler, Testing Waters etc:
    • Is no longer allowed.

      • If you are unsure of the fair price of your item, use the search function to research other similar items, ebay, craigslist, nadaguides, kelly blue book or whatever else is applicable. The classifieds section is not a discussion forum, thus not the place to be asking for opinions on market value that might lead to massive gray areas of conversation that violate preceding rules outlined above.

About our house:

There are a total of 4 people that live here:

  • Becca: mid-30's female, musician and music teacher, in and out of the house most days. Super chill, a little messy, but nothing too bad. She's been here for like 7 years now.
  • Hans: early 40's guy, quiet, tends to keep to himself for the most part (you'd be sharing a bathroom with him). Very neat. Moved in about a month before I did.
  • Myself: 40 female, have a day job but my life revolves around racing and track and motorcycles. Been here since June 2017.

  • Oliver, Alistair, Leliana - the three cats that live here (more about pets below)
  • You??

House is large. I have the downstairs "suite." Other rooms are all upstairs. Becca and I have our own bathrooms, and we typically ask that guests use their "host's" bathroom. We also have a guest room by the laundry room where we occasionally have someone stay a night or two (visiting family typically), which is nice to have with so many roommates!

Your room: "Alley" facing window, on one side of the hallway. Shared full bath with Hans. Decent sized room (~10x12) with a full closet.

Nice kitchen, fireplace, ratty old couch upstairs (we've tried to clean it, it's just not going to look nice), big screen TV in the living room, wi-fi, Direct TV, etc. Very nice backyard and a small porch upstairs.

Less than a mile from the Colma BART station. Quiet, residential neighborhood, street parking can be a pain (especially on street cleaning days) and our driveway is tiny - so be prepared to park a block or two away frequently, but parking can be found in a reasonable walk.

There's room in garage for a bike or two and your tools, etc - we can always rearrange and reorganize the garage again. Of course, you'll be sharing the garage with me primarily - Becca keeps some of her music stuff down there that she needs to get in and out, and there's some storage in there from pretty much everyone, but plenty of room for me to tear down a bike and leave it that way for weeks, too.

We'd prefer no more cats (the dynamic currently works but additional cats would likely throw that off). Lease allows for dogs, but dog MUST be cat friendly and non-destructive. Breed restrictions likely apply as they do most places. You have to clean up after your pet, and take care of them. While we sometimes pet sit for each other, it is not our responsibility to take care of your pet(s) for you.

About you: Keep it chill. With four people in one house, pick up after yourself reasonably well, but don't freak out if there's a few dishes in the sink, either. Driveway has courtesy "rules" as does laundry, etc. Follow the few rules and everyone will stay much happier. We're all working adults, who are pretty courteous about other people's schedules and being quiet in the evening hours - that being said, we can occasionally hang out and enjoy some company with one another here and there too, but TBH, there's not a ton of that. Don't be passive aggressive, let little things roll off, and we have a really relaxed and laid back house. Home is pretty nice here, we try to keep it that way. If you like drama, or freak out at something not quite the way you like it, this is not the house for you.

Overnight guests are fine, but we don't want a 5th part time roommate, either. If you have family visiting for several days or better part of a week+ it is customary to chip in some extra rent $$. You are responsible for your guest, and we don't tolerate random people having access to our house.

Rent is $900/month if you are NOT using the garage, includes all utilities (within reason). If you need regular use of the garage (ie, you have a bike(s)) there is additional cost. Some storage space in garage is included in rent.

Our current lease goes through May 31, 2019.

Feel free to PM me with any further questions.
