That seller is close to me. Can we do something about it (how naive I am). He's got 0% feedback and looks as hot as Kelly brooks knickers

happen an email to ebay might make them pull the ad but i suspect without the owners know how, the bike will just disappear. could try the police I suppose? they might have records of high end bikes nicked? I doubt someone wouldn't miss a Heckler!

"Relisted due to timewaster" strange that they've never listed it before

I'm in Worksop - just trying to search on google to see if something similar has been stolen recently

I can't find anything on the net regarding a lost Santa cruz. One of my mates had his Marin and other had a cube nicked but not a heckler. I watched a YouTube clip about 6 guys in America and they went to a blokes house who they had heard had nicked a bike and returned it to its rightful owner. Trouble is we don't know who's it is and this isn't America

given the colour scheme the owner will surely recognise that

It must be a dead small model with 11" wheels, looking at that bottle of JD for scale! See last photo.
My advice would be for the actual owner to win it, offer to pay cash on collection and simply take it for a spin never to return. I say this since being made aware of a very similar case where the proper owner got the police involved at collection time and was let down seriously by them.
Probably not a popular option.

I sent him a message asking for the frame no
He just replied with "what do you want that for?"
"to make sure it's not nicked. If it's legit then it's just a frame no" was my reply
So far no response

Is the green and red font some kind of magic eye trick as It's almost impossible to decipher.

Very subtle questioning, I wonder why he bolted?!
Wouldn't it been better to say you wanted to check what year it was for a spare bushing set or something?

I know, I got flamed for doing something very similar though not as blunt as implying it actually was stolen!
