and here is the proof, thanks ebay :P

Haro fluted seatpost. Repowered and stickered by c4.  Not finishing build.  See other auctions for frame, stem, and bars.    Perfect shape and ready to go.  Bid away and good luck.  If bidding makes it over $200 free shipping will apply.

I thought they were to play tunes on?

Curiously did it go for over $200, and if so did you get free shipping?
