Thats gotta be a typo or somit....they say if somit is too good to be true it usually is.

On the surface tho it looks like a bargain. I would however ask him lots of questions before i did anything . john'o

Thats silly money for it.

Sadly, it just screams "stolen" or "non-existent rip off scam" to me.

If it is genuine, I'd have his arm off matey, go round and see it, pick it up, turn it around and make 2 grand on reselling it.

It's a scam, there are loads on there at the moment. If you contact the seller I bet he says send money and I will deliver. Yeah some chance.

For jokes i emailed him saying i wanted to buy it, this is the reply i got. (very fecking dubious!)

The selling price for the bike is so low because I need some cash asap due to some personal problems! You can buy the bike for the price of £1750 . For this price I will also include free delivery of the bike anywhere in the UK. You will also have access to a refund policy on this transaction. However, before any delivery can be done we have to start the transaction on ebay so we can be both protected. In order to start the transaction on the eBay system I need to receive some details from you:
- your full name and address (for your invoice + delivery purposes)...
As soon as the above details will be provided I'll start the official transaction on eBay and they will notify you about this. You'll also receive important guidelines + instructions from them ( please go through them exactly ).
Will wait to hear from you. Thank you for your interest...

WALK AWAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No one would sell a bike like that for that sort of money and his reply is screaming "your going to get ripped off"

Deffo a scam same guy i mailed about an 04 ktm said he lived 5 mile from me and wouldnt let me come look but just to go through ebay payment system and it would be delivered.

As someone has already said if it looks too good to be true its probably dodgy.

Ask him for his full name and address as you need to take the Dobermans for a walk and was thinking of going that way after rifle practice
