If ebay removed all the dodgy sellers, ebay wouldn't have a business.The bike is up on eBay again! They are useless on stopping doggy listing!
Just done it.Everybody that reads this, please report it to Ebay using the "report item" link on the right hand side of the listing.
I think he would have protested at our bidding his sale out of the water if he was for real. Note also his phone number has changed. Maybe someone should call the police and see if they'd be interested in running a sting. After all this guy is desperate for attention.I'm wondering if he's just stupid and has an electric Brompton to sell that's the same colour and he's too lazy or incompetent to take photos.. His bike cannot be exactly the same because Jerry's one has a unique connection system - unless, of course, the guy copied everything by following Jerry's build threads.
Against this, though, is that he would have enthusiastically answered some of the questions if he built it and is a genuine seller.
Even if one person asks for a buy it now price early,the seller may still offer a seeming bargain and get lucky.give a low start on ebay and you will recieve loads of questions on how much to sell today and silly low offers,if the seller seemingly accepts a low offer several times over,they may mug a few punters.Just done it.
Surely this person will realise sooner or later that this attempted scam isn't working and just give up, or will some poor unfortunate really fall for it and get ripped off?
The problem is so far this person does not appear to have committed a crime.I've submitted an online enquiry to Herts police asking them to consider picking this guy up.
Did the seller get paid?Yes he has, he has sold a bike just before Christmas for 25k and not been in contact with the buyer. He had definitely committed fraud already!
.How on earth can the bike be 'REDUCED REDUCED REDUCED' when it's being sold through auction
