???????? is this a scam??

Harv748 10-Oct-2005 13:22

American spelling...American looking house in the background...for sale in Aylesbury...Uhm?

HW 10-Oct-2005 13:22

Dunno Rob, scams are often (usuaully?) outside UK, but this one is Aylesbury.

Postage is very reasonable though!!!!!

"Postage costs: £8.00 - Royal Mail Special Delivery (Within United Kingdom ) "

I thought you were talking about the mirrors :o :barfy:

electricsheep 10-Oct-2005 13:23

i don't know, what is making you suspicious ?

rob748b 10-Oct-2005 13:23

Have looked at his feedback etc looks like it is in the uk?? and i agree postage is good at £8 dont think it will get through the letter box though!!

Its the price at the moment that is making alarm bells ring!!

Agree mirrors look a bit odd!

I must have too much time on my hands ... I just looked at the previous items he sold and they are mostly glasses (drinking variety) and some model yacht bits, a kite. Nothing of any size like this. Maybe it's a model and he forgot to say that? :puzzled:

Are you thinking about bidding then Rob?

No mate, just curious as to whether it is a genuine sale, but i will keep an eye on it to see what happens? might email the bloke and see what he has to say??

neilkeogh 10-Oct-2005 13:38

I might just offer him £25 to close the deal, and say I'll pick it up to save on postage!;)

US spec reflectors on front mudguard......
Americanised spellings of Aluminium & carbon fibre...
Nothing bike related in the sellers history as far back as you can go.
Nothing cast iron but I'd be thinking maybe a hijacked account???

Herb 10-Oct-2005 13:39

A Quadraphenia fan perhaps?

Rushjob 10-Oct-2005 13:40

Oh... and the Volvo XC90 in the picture looks like it's left hand drive

rob748b 10-Oct-2005 13:41

You are all far too observant!!

It's an XC70, not an XC90. :lol:

rob748b 10-Oct-2005 14:20

PICKY!!:lol:

Well, someone has started the bidding at £11.

I am no eBay expert, but doesn't it usually say "reserve not met" when the bidding starts and is lower than the reserve? I know he said "low reserve", but it looks like £11 would be accepted! :puzzled:

itexuk 10-Oct-2005 14:23

Not a UK number plate, if you blow it up it is white.

mikesps 10-Oct-2005 14:25

What British person would put spotlights on their brake calipers? (Fourth row on the left. That is not normal.)

One who would sell a 999 for UKP11?

mikesps 10-Oct-2005 14:59

Just been pulled by e-bay @ UKP2550. Bit of account hijacking me thinks.
