Don't know; haven't visited there for years. I suspected that shill bidding was taking place, so I bailed.

Lol, there was a lot of shill bidding on the Gio site! I lost out on many many auctions at the last minute, even with a fairly high silent reserve.
It was a fun site to surf though, I kinda miss it. They still do make and sell Giovanni bikes though, but you have to get them from brick and mortar stores, and of course the prices have doubled! There's a place in Sherwood Park (Alberta) that sells them I believe. |

No kidding! I was in Sherwood Park on the weekend. Any idea where the dealer is?

Wish I had bought one of those X35's when they had them on sale on the website for $1000, the dealers want a heck of a lot more!
