That'll be the scam-busters at work. Zero feedback seller plus very few details about the bike (most of which are wrong) = the new 419. I bet if you ask to view it, you'll have to deposit a large sum into a PayPal account first, which you'll never see again. You won't see the bike either as it won't exist. The scam-busters push the price up to absurd levels to stop people being taken in by it until Ebay finish investigating & pull the auction.
I emailed this guy, he said: "i have sent you 3 pics with the bike. You will have to send the money by WESTERN UNION at this full name and address: First Name:Jaques Last Nameuprin address:24 place grandier cityaris Zip Code:75000 Country:France The bike will arrive at your door with all the documents. When you will e-mail me the payment details please e-mail me your exactly shipping details so i can ship the bike. The shipping will be made by FEDEX and the bike will arrive at your door in max 48 hours..I will pay the shipping taxes, Kindly Regards" He sent me 3 pics which suggested a USA location (had a stars and stripes chopper in one pic). I am considering my next move; I'm in Holland, he says the bike is in Paris, so I might ask for a viewing. Paris is only 430km away from me.
Go for it - after all, who would pay the thick end of 10 million quid for a bike without viewing it first? -- AndrewR, D.Bot (Celeritas) Kawasaki ZX-6R J1 BOTAFOT#2,ITJWTFO#6,UKRMRM#1/13a,MCT#1,DFV#2,SKoGA#0 (and KotL) BotToS#5,SBS#25,IbW#34, TEAR#3 (and KotL), DS#5, COSOC#9, KotTFSTR# The speccy Geordie twat.
Well, exactly... In a previous email he asked me how much I would offer for the bike. He says it's a 1998 CBR 600 F3. I'm thinking of offering about 1500 euros. Funny I can't find "24 Place Grandier"....
