@ wwaswas I’m not sure “doing it quietly” is that clever a strategy to be honest. Its on ebay with thousands of gullible punters looking for bikes all day. Some unsuspecting mug will be stupid enough to bid and pay for it, job done.
Probably best its reported to ebay and the item removed before the police do nothing about it as usual. Ive reported it to ebay.
Believe me, ive had a bike stolen. I pretty much knew the street the bike was on in Kirkby. The police were too slow to respond and the bike disappeared within 2 weeks, probably sprayed matte black and ridden as a pub bike.
It was a £4k Yeti ASX for what its worth.
The police are toothless when it comes to dealing with issues like this.
