Should really report it, obviously you gotta be dumb to bid on it but there are a lot of thick people on ebay.

Thought this post was going to be referring to this:
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Yeti-ARC-Hardtail-Mtb-BANKERS-AND-PROPERTY-DEVELOPERS-ONLY-/250926800928?pt=UK_Bikes_GL&hash=item3a6c672020#ht_3391wt_1054
Much more worthy of a look! This is one angry,bitter and twisted man.

At 100quid for postage, I think it's safe to say that item is not going sell, despite his best efforts to disguise it as a best of the best, stronge Yeti hardtail.

Can you report stuff on ebay, or will the guy just leave feedback on your profile ruining things for you? Some poor sod is going to buy that, maybe at a lower price auction and not this one.

I'm going to give him the benefit of the doubt and just assume he's forgotten his decimal points.

Should read 'cost £60.00 to build starting bid £20.00'

Let financial natural selection deal with it

Apart from the price, which for any 2nd hand hardtail is completely absurd (unless the frame is made of pure gold and you are planning to melt it down), that is also and most definitely not a Yeti.

What is it though, it doesn't look like total junk?

Saw that just after the advert appeared. Looks like some generic piece of Brand-X rubbish. At best its probably worth £300.

Ask him for the frame number as you'd like to verify its authenticity with Yeti before you make a bid and/or a receipt for the frame. Then pwn him with bombers and/or superior knowledge. I'm going to message him tonight if I remember.

Dropouts are same as one of the £100ish brand x hardtails, but not seen the extra brace in the rear triangle. Most likely made in the same factory as brand-x at least.

Haha that's a brilliant fail.

I think it's safe to say he will be hanging on to that particular 'Yeti'.

Numpty.

That's a super quality bell on picture 4.

Super light and super loud, no doubt.
