States he will sell it now for £200 in the text....any one near bournmouth ....go go go !

Again would love it my self, but cant afford it as december has financially wasted me

any one want to buy it for me ?

Can't help but view that with an element of suspicion! :?

seller seems new to selling but has been a ebay member for a few years, so i'd be willing to give benifit of the doubt. Beyond that, ive no idea. Does say turn up & pay so at least you get a face to face deal. However he may have his mates waiting with baseball bats knowing youve got £200 in your pocket, but i doubt it.

Looks like a set of blue avids trialigns on there as well, could be a real bargain for someone!

Seems strange that he already has a £200 bid on it, why dont they just go and seal the deal???

Hence my suspicion.....

yeah that looks really dodgy, it is listed as 16" frame and 24" wheels with V brakes!!!

Nice saddle too :shock:

presumably somebody's bought it but he's not removed the listing, or they're just staking their dibs and are phoning each other as we speak to arrange collection...

If you look at some of the crap on the bike, like the saddle and chainset (and the lack of elastomers in the rear shox) then it's possible that it used to belong to someone else before this fella -and it's possible that the original owner didn't agree to the change of ownership, or even had a say in it! But it could be that someone has upgraded the frame, junked any old shit on the old one and either used it as a commuter or given it to a mate to do likewise. I know I did that with my old Funk, put stx on it and gave it to an ex girlfriend (oh how I weep when I think about that....)
