Subject:      Fiamma Bike Racks at Wholesale
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"

As part of the containerload I just imported from Europe, I received a
shipment of Fiamma Bike Racks for Vanagons. These are the same ones sold for
$250 everywhere else. They attach to the rear hatch and hold 2 bikes (an
optional kit allows you to add a third). These are the Vanagon-specific
ones, not the "one-size-sort-of-fits-all" version that some places sell.

In the hopes of recouping some of my investment quickly, I will sell the
first 5 units for $179.95.  This is the usual _wholesale_ price for these
racks. After the first five are sold, the rest of the units will go up to a
somewhat more profitable (but still nicely discounted) price.

You can see a picture of the rack at

They are on the website, or order via the Toll-Free Number. Part number
KA0025.

Oh, and a reminder that if you own (or plan to own) one of my genuine
VW/South Africa trailer hitches (part # S121; see previous post), you can
save another $50 by buying part #  85663 instead. It's a 3-bike carrier that
mounts to that hitch, rather than to the rear hatch, for just $129.95
