Cut and paste from a Marin website yet insists on calling it an intense. very odd.

WTF? That’s a Marin…

He must know it’s a Marin under that custom paintjob, for he knows that the resprayed fork is a Fox Float.

Anyone reported this?

I will only take £550 for the bike

Why start it at £250 then?

I’ve asked him the following question:

“Isn’t this a re-sprayed, re-badged Marin?”

Hopefully that will act as a warning to any potential buyer.

questions not showing on the listing

the person doing the listing can chose if questions and answers appear.

doesn’t the ad owner have to add the question/reply onto the listing, it’s not put up automatcially is it?
(I’ve only bought not sold on ebay so dunno)

EDIT: Doh, too slow!

& yeah I reported it earlier, no idea if eBay will actually do anything though.

“on the downside” it has a bottle cage..

I like it, think i’ve found my new bik. No seriously I do 😆

Burls, as an ex-Marin Mount Vision owner (this type frame) I can only say there great frames, especially the last ’06 ones which weigh bugger all.
Maybe not totally suited to 120mm forks IMO but ride well and suspension system is very effective & efficient.

I don’t believe the buy it now price is majorly excessive, just that the advert title is misleading & the colour scheme a crime.

The colour is not the only thing that’s a crime.

Is the guy from Liverpool?he might have had it custom painted to match his shell sute

I’ve a 7yr old Marin frame from that era that’s still going strong – cheese??
