Corbin saddle offer - or trade

[John Soliday]

Drew,

I'm out in Colorado, zip code 80503 and need to round up a box for the stock
seat.  So how do you want to split of the cost of exchange vs. someone just
outright buying or selling you a stock seat?  I'm open to suggestion and if
you want a pic of the seat I can send you one tonight.

John

John -

Sounds good.  I'll likely be out of contact until tomorrow, but the Corbin
is yours if you want it.

If you're anywhere within a few hours of Bristol, VT (05443) we might be
able to arrange a meetup, otherwise I can ship via UPS mid week.

Great day for a ride up here.  The Wife and I are headed out (she on her old
Honda Shadow), then I have to chaperone the prom for my high school.
 Yes, the prom.  On a holiday/Sunday night.  I'm a junior class advisor at
my school, and I need to get some sanity under my belt this afternoon before
going to soak in the hormones and (relative) drama which is a high school
prom .
