    What is it about people buying stuff on Ebay?

    I mean look at this:

    http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2445639296&category=9915&rd=1

    Tidy enough, sure. But it doesn't run isn't taxed or MOTd. The seller
    *says* it's the fuel pump and a tired battery; on its own that lot will
    cost you about 120- plus then you're getting an old bike with >110k on
    the clock.

    Even running it's probably not worth much more than 750- to a grand.
    Why do people bid so much?

    And, yes, I did want to pick it up cheaply.

    I wish i could get hold of some cheap luggage/topbox for my K100, the bike
    longs to be toured, but i can't even find anywhere to put my sarnies.

    Cheap? Well I just flogged a set for 100- on ebay.

    The BMW panniers are very good, it must be said.

    No, you're right. That bit came from an email exchange with the vendor.
