We're going to have to let you decide what color this actually is. It's either lime green or yellow green. How about we call it a limey-yellow green? I any event, we're pricing it as a lime green.

On to the damage. There is a shallow, pinky-nail sized flake on top of the wire rim at the mold line to the right of the front. There is another smaller shallow flake underneath and to the left of that one. On the rear, there is a shallow flake above the "PE" on the wire rim, and a fingernail-sized flat chip underneath the wire rim to the left of the ride-side mold line. There is also a round chip about one inch long on the inner shirt that goes up to the top of the inner skirt, and some light flaking about half way around the inner skirt. There is a flea bite or two on the dome, and the very top of the dome is rough (like tiny open bubbles). The wire rim is also a little rough from wear.

Yes, it sounds bad, but it really isn't as bad as it sounds - I'm just trying to be accurate. How often do you see one of these up for sale anywhere? Yellow green books at $700 - $800 and lime green books at $350 - $400. How does $300 sound for this one?

Thanks for looking!
