Oh I didn't win it I just went and looked lol the guy won it first time for £103 i think it was and has already left feedback :D
Pretty snidy when sellers don't accept the winning bid, coz it wasn't what they wanted, then relist.

Police aren't at all interested nor are ebay, ebay facilitates thieves.
A couple of years ago a hooky load of Batribikes went up for sale with yes you may have guessed no batteries, they were new model year bikes that were stolen from a lorry. Batribike themselves I believe got no where with the plod or ebay, I even reported them to ebay and gave them the news story and a link to their theft.

They were delisted for about 4 weeks then reappeared again.
Ebay is simply a crooks paradise for selling hooky gear, makes Delboy look like a saint.
