Please put color in item descriptions.....

I am way bad color blind and I hate to PM someone to ask a color. It may be obvious from the photo that you posted that you have blue hubs for sale but they might as well be purple to me.

Please put the color in your descriptions. Thanks  cool


I buy 3 Bar Cruisers, Hit me up if you have one for sale!

Re: Please put color in item descriptions.....

Here's what I will do......when you ask what color it is, I will ask "what do you want it to be."  lol

No really, I am an Engineer by day and therefore agree everything is best when specified to the hilt.  Will keep color in mind.

Re: Please put color in item descriptions.....

I was kidding with owl a while back and didnt know he was actually color blind.  I ate my shoes for that.  There is all kinds of problems that we have and some of them are just absurd but what can we do? 
Owl, I apologize if i didnt say it to you before.  cool

Re: Please put color in item descriptions.....

But what if the seller is color blind also? smile

It would make searching easier. Heck, it might make up for some of the less-than-helpful photos. (Might be chrome, might be black, might be cloaked, who knows?)

Where the music stinks, and they water the drinks, at the nudie bar.
Where the girlies dance in their underpants, at the nudie bar.
Where you see their butt, and their trap stays shut, at the nudie bar.
Where you can’t touch a breast, but you can cave in a chest, at the nudie bar.
Where you look at a thigh, and blacken an eye, at the nudie bar.
Where a buck’s enough to see their stuff, at the nudie bar.
Where the breasts may be fake but man do they shake, at the nudie bar.
Where you swear like a sailor, and wish you could nail her, at the nudie bar.

Old School BMX bike collecting is a hobby and New School Retro BMX bike riding is a hobby. Respect the part of the hobby I enjoy and I'll promise to respect and even compliment the part of the hobby you enjoy. Disrespect what I like and I'll disrespect you...simple enough right?
