£2750 - £3000 but the seller appears to be a muppet selling bikes he doesn't own according to his limited feedback
In uk.rec.motorcycles, Boots Blakeley said: The price at the moment says £49,785.69. I can understand someone taking the piss with the bidding because of the guy's feedback but the bidder seems to have a lot of feedback and most of it good.
That's most odd. I'd expect to see a ridiculously high (revenge?) bid from a newly registered hoax ebayer but this high bid appears to have come from someone with a very good rating - i.e. 2296 Check out the seller's feedback - allegedly he sold a bike then relisted it the next day - buyer most p*ssed off.
Strangely, when I read the seller's feedback I thought of Des. Then I looked at the bid list for the current auction - the first bidder calls hisself "froggy2221". There's deffo an 'i-bike' connection here.
Indeed, plus the paint job is a US one which would make me slightly suspicious. -- 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, Keeper of the TFSTR# The speccy Geordie twat.

In uk.rec.motorcycles, Pip said: The new Zonealarm has got a natty little feature. You put your eBay password in it and if you go to a site that looks like eBay but isn't, it'll stop you in your tracks and let you know. That's the theory anyway.
Gosh, that is innovative. I use my eyes, personally - if the url doesn't start with https it will be a wrong 'un.
Got one last weekend, as you say non secure and the immediate give away the website server was in lebanon with the mail sent from a spanish dialup. I assumed Ebay were rich enough to own their own servers and mail system.
