ukp870 on ebay. I'm well happy with that, seeing as I've had about 1500 miles out of it.
The Older Gentleman was seen penning the following ode to ... whatever: Youse been robbed, I only pay a tenner per change... Actually, have you tried to work out if the cost of change during the year exceeds the initial cost of the policy?
It's gone. To a really nice couple with two restored 400 Fours and two restored CB250RSs. He told me he'd put in a proxy bid of ukp1001. I *wish* somebody had bid harder against him!
trouble is, it's hard to find out these things... and eBay, rightly, take a dim view of people bidding up their own items, though I bert it happens, either in person on a different identity or via friends for a cut. next time you're selling summat, lemmme know, I'm sure we can come to an arrangement, nudge-nudge, wink-wink...
Easy way to do it, is to find someone to put in a bid for you.... only, instead of entering, say, £1000, they put in £10000. Obviously, a bid for £10000 would be a mistake, and ebay rules would allow you to withdraw the bid, so long as you placed a corrective bid immediately after withdrawing, IYSWIM.
true, but the problem is that you might end up buying it - the trick would be to know that someone has stuck a proxy for more'n what your fake bid is...
Well, it won't after the auction has closed (I don't think), but if anyone is interested: item 2427315445
(The Older Gentleman muttered You can only find a closed item with the reference number. I had a look while the auction was open and searched for CB550 and CB550F, nada. Had to do a search for Honda and scroll though. Dunno why it didn't come up as CB550 was in the title...
