Used Titus Racer X full suspension XS mountain bike - $1800

This bike is very well built, light weight and fast. It’s a full suspension bicycle that climbs hills really well and feels very comfortable. Many have reviewed this as one of the few best full-suspension bikes out there.

I bought this bike used from a woman in California. She had 4 other mountain bikes and this one was sitting in the garage. Since purchasing the bike in June 2008, I’ve put fewer than 100 miles on it. Since moving to Texas, I no longer have time to ride this bike. I have also put on new tires and breaks. You can’t get a better deal for your money.

This is an XS women’s bike so it will fit a petite woman (5’3 or under) or a child. The price is not negotiable.

Imagine yourself experiencing the warm, salty breezes of the Caribbean Sea as you take in the sunset from the upper level of a vast cruise ship! You’ll be able to toast to another day in paradise as the sun melts into the crystal blue water and the night life awakes aboard an all-inclusive 5 day/4 night cruise of the Bahaman Islands. The ship leaves from Miami, Florida bright and early on Saturday, September 18th and travels through the tranquil waters of the Caribbean, stopping at three ports of call including: Freeport, Nassau, and Andros Town. (The ship returns to Miami on Wednesday, September 22nd.) Shopping, dining, and local attractions await you at each and every port. While aboard the ship, you will experience gourmet meals, swimming, gym access, spa services, organized activities and games, exciting night life, dancing, shows, or… nothing at all! You choose! All of this is available for the low price of $399/person for inside cabins and $499/person for sea view cabins. You may also upgrade to a suite for $599/person. (Taxes not included.) This is a limited opportunity as the ship will fill fast, and prices like this will not be offered again! How are we able to offer paradise at this price, you ask?

Questions 186-190 refer to the following two emails.

To: Patty Raymond < [email protected] >From: Amy Strain < [email protected] >Subject: Account #0368338126

Dear Ms. Raymond,

I recently received my bank statement for the month of November, and I have a couple of concerns. I hope you can help me figure them out.

I noticed on November 10th I was charged $2.50 to withdraw funds from an ATM inside Riverside Mall. It was my understanding, when I opened the account, that I was able to use any ATM and not accrue service charges. While $2.50 may not seem like a lot, it can certainly add up!

On November 25th, I noticed that $10.00 was withdrawn from my account, and I cannot figure out why. I work hard to keep up with my check register, and I’m quite certain that I haven’t bounced any checks.

Your reply is much appreciated because I am really upset by these charges and withdrawals. I would like for my account to be corrected as soon as possible.

Thank you,Amy Strain

To: Amy Strain < [email protected] >From: Patty Raymond < [email protected] >Subject: RE: Account #0368338126

Dear Ms. Strain,

I am sorry for the confusion regarding your November statement. Allow me to explain the charge and withdrawal so that you understand where they came from.

The ATM fee of $2.50 on November 10th came from the financial institution that owns the ATM machine (National Banking Corp). First American Bank allows you to use outside ATMs without incurring any extra charges, however, we cannot guarantee that there will not be a charge to your account from the bank that owns the machine. In this case, National Banking Corp charged you $2.50 since you are not a customer of their bank. As a customer courtesy, we will credit your account $2.50 to reimburse this fee. In the future, please be sure that you agree to any fees from outside ATMs before completing the transaction.

You were charged $10.00 on November 25th because a check you deposited from Cindy White was returned due to insufficient funds. Unfortunately, we must withdraw the money from your account since that check was returned. Perhaps you can request a new check from the individual, or you may ask for cash or a cashier’s check to guarantee funds.

I hope your questions have been answered, and I hope that you enjoy being a customer of First American. We are proud to have you as a customer.

Sincerely,

Patty RaymondAccount RepresentativeFirst American Bank

Questions 196-200 refer to the following two letters.

June 10, 2006

Horrizon Cellular222 Main StreetWindale, AZ

To Whom It May Concern:

I would like to have my account closed so that I may transfer it to Western Wireless. There are several reasons why I have become unhappy with Horizon Cellular and have decided to request a transfer to Western.

• I feel the $75 monthly fee is rather exorbitant for the services provided. That money only covers 300 minutes of phone usage! If I want to use any texting options or internet usage, I have to pay on an individual basis, and these things are extremely costly!

• I have too many dropped calls. Your coverage shows that I should have no problem with coverage all over town, yet calls are dropped on a weekly basis.

• I would like the opportunity to upgrade my phone more often. With your company, I only have that option once every two years.

• My experiences with customer service have been more than lacking. I haven’t had my questions answered or my problems resolved.

I hope that you will allow me to close my account without any trouble. I understand that there is a fee for cancelling, but I do not feel I need to pay the fee since you are not meeting your end of the contract. I look forward to hearing from you so that I may move on to Western Wireless.

Thank you,Kimberli StewardCellular phone number: 915-656-0512Account number: 0313938128
