I know what you mean but the person who won that bike was the original and 1st bidder.
What if that 1st bidder was a retro biker and "outing" the auction he found (either by luck or time) cost him hundreds of pounds?
I would just like to point out this isnt something that has effected me or happened its just something I thought could be discussed![]()

to me it seems fairer if people know about this stuff.
plus if stuff sells for realistic prices it may encourage non retro people to sell rather than just bin their old bits and bobs
