This is disgusting

Someone broke into Craig Jones and stole his helemt, who died in World Supersport as Brands (as if I would need to tell you that)

He has that helemt listed on Ebay for sale.

The twat has relisted the helmet on ebay

Nice work.

But he will keep trying

Or sit on it for a month till we cant be bothered to check again.

He needs to be shot.

Anyone fancy a bike touring ride this weekend to Latvia???

I feel we have a responsibility to:
1) Bid sensibly, one of us wins and sends the helmet back to his mother
2) If we are being outbid by someone not from BCF, then bid outrageously.

Perhaps ride to Craigs mum to drop it off

This was actually discovered by members of superbikeforums Rolling Eyes

One of the managers and one of the mods over there are friends with Yvonne Jones, they've been trying to get the helmet back for Yvonne for ages now.

MCN was supposed to be helping to get the helmet back and get a decent story at the same time....

MCN being shit have blown the whole thing wide open just as there seemed to be some progress on getting the helmet back for Yvonne Evil or Very Mad

He'll keep cancelling the silly bids. Rolling Eyes

How about the sabateurs use some common sense, place normal bids and make sure they're always winning?

With seconds to go, then you can silly bid and fuck him up.

The Rolling Eyes was because I used to be a member over there Laughing

MCN is only good to wipe your arse with when you run out of bog paper....I haven't bought it in ages and I certainly won't be rushing out to buy it now!

Make a sticky topic, and I'm sure none of us would mind donating 10 quid each or something to get it back

Why are the police doing nothing about this anyway if it was stolen and know where it is?!

[Edit] I'm sure they can use ebay records to trace him.

Ah okay, now I understand. Laughing

Also, a wholehearted agree on your second point there. Thumbs Up

EDIT: Auction taken down from eBay - look for it going up again in the near future I guess!

as a member of superbikeforums we considered sending money over to get the helmat back.
the twat kept upping the stakes and it got to £1000 but we never knew if he would be trustworthy enough to post it.
MCN got involved with promises and fooked everything up basically to get a story out of it.

link to whats been going on since august 7th. just 4 days after his tragedy

Sad

That's a beautiful helmet, but this guy shouldn't profit by its theft.

It's a shame we don't know people in Latvia who could go and have a convincing word.

The guy is a wanker - won't eBay pull the account if supplied the Crime number?

Not even going to comment on what they said about BCF

I am writing it off as misdirrected rage at the impotence of not being ble to do anything.

I have a number of things on my winning the lottery list, taking a trip to Latvia has become one of them.

Ok, 'eduardich' has sent me a message on eBay (I made a £1500 bid earlier today).

Quote:
Dear ********,

You are ready to buy a helmet?

-eduardich



What's the best thing to do? Obviously a 'fuck you, go eat your own eyelids you thieving fuck' would be satisfying for a second but would end the opportunity.

Shall I 'scam-bait' him, if only to waste his time?

Make up summit about being a collector, play email tennis, generally fuck him about with payment problems etc?

Suggestions please.

Thanks to SuperBikeForums for advertising the helmet.
To get the helmet will cost money because he really needs it.
You're the 9624th visitor.
Using 9624 you can work out that it's roughly one out of ten people from England want the helmet.
One out of every ten people also wants to know if it would be possible for them to have the custom paint done on their helmets.
Thanks for the support.
Together you will see good come out of it all.

Just my take on it like Rolling Eyes

If that is a reasonable translation I'd love to know where he got his figure for an entire UK population of less than 100k from... and how visitors automatically equal "people who want to buy".
