You can all stop looking now thanks, my stolen Giant Lafree has turned up on E bay, half a mile down the road.
Someone bid a pound more than I did,( at £51 at the last minute). I was unable to stop Ebay.
But the fuzz collected it.
Contrary to usual police methods, they let me have it straight back, but by the same token as far as I know no serious action against three adults involved
But the anonymous phone calls have started!!!

That's incredible that those low-life scums have the audacity to try and sell a stolen bike on eBay. I hope eBay have banned them. And why aren't they being prosecuted for it eh. Glad to hear you got your bike back safely anyway, hope it's not been damaged.
