Could you ask him to put some smaller photos of the bike up. My screen can't handle them

i think its too cheap. Id be wary of a scam or a write off. I have seen this bike advertised on ebay before, think it had a scuffed frame. If he lets you, view it... its the only way to tell from that ad.

The key with ebay is, never bid unless the photos can do the bike justice, or you can view it.

If I was a seller, I'd post as many large detailed photos as possible as it means people will bid. Either this guy is an ebay numpty or there is something very wrong with that bike.

Ask if you can view it, but DO NOT buy it without seeing it first, or at the VERY LEAST seeing untouched photos of the front, back, left, right, speedo, and any damage.

{edit} probably worth a mention, but if that bike is in the condition he says it is, its probably worth at least £2k. In which case the BIN price is a bargain. However I'd view it first as it seems too good to be true... {edit}

Remember kids, bikes aren't like lego. You can't easily take a part from one bike and then fit it to another.

Need to get decent photo's emailed to you.

Not sold or bought much of late to get a feel for the seller.

Unless you can go and see, walk away. Thumbs Up
