Saw this ad today on UsedVictoria for a set of used Ksyrium ES wheels.
Anyone looking for a best-bang-for-the-buck set of wheels should consider taking a look.

Note there's only an email link to contact the seller, though. I would ask those due diligence questions if you actually get to see them (i.e. the seller's not the 419 variety).

Hey Ryan,
I checked out the reviews on the wheels at Road Bike Review and half the people loved them and half hated them - reliability issues. The price is attractive if they hold up. What do you think

I have a pair of SL wheels and they're bomb proof. Joe gard has the ES version. The wheels are awesome.
It's the questionable legitimacy of the ad that concerns me....
If you have several email accounts, I would contact the purported seller from one of the your 'junkmail' accounts first, then see what they have to say. Here are the warning signs to watch for...

I didn't check Ryan's list, but not being home/available when you write is one the things to watch for in these scam ads. Good luck.
