It is a fine line regarding assumptions on posted ads. However, I don't think anyone in this thread claimed them to be stolen. This list is a way to communicate with a broadly dispersed segment (and I emphasize "segment") of Rivendell owners and enthusiasts. Other than my own, there are probably 20-25 Rivs I could attribute to a specific person, given how many images I've seen of them over the years.
It was in that spirit that I added to this thread: "It may be nothing, but this looks a little odd." Getting the word out might help recover someone's bicycle. Just because someone isn't on this list, or just because they post a for sale ad on CL or eBay doesn't mean the bicycle in question was stolen. And I do feel it is inappropriate to assume that it might be. IME, really nice bikes priced low are more likely to be scams and/or "of dubious lineage". As with Peter, I received a reply to my questions with contact info, and the ad was updated after I did so. - Jim / list admin -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
