I'm wrong ?
Just come across this, and yes i might be very wrong, but if i have my road bikes stolen and somebody on here posted a listing on eBay i would be so grateful !
This guy has been on eBay since 2005 and never brought a item for cycling in his life on eBay, odd ?? But he's selling two high end carbon road bikes, one with carbon wheels and in the past if has sold yet more carbon bikes, Kuta Kurt - June 2011 and a Ridley Orion - August 2012.
Sorry, but i find it odd.....

Seems good to me (54 c-c plus wife's bikes, collect in person, photos from same location)- HOWEVER: "Payment by Paypal and Collect in person" - sadly the seller is open to have 2 nice bikes stolen / scammed.

Someone should tell him.

At first, i did, but he is selling / sold many thousand pounds worth of carbon bikes and never, ever brought anything to do with cycling ever !!
If he sells bikes on eBay, surely he would by the odd bit of kit ?

My missus happily buys s**t from ebay but never gets round to selling anything. I've sold her old hiking boots, a watch and other stuff she just wanted to send for recycling. Wimmin!!!!

Possibly.

Selling the nearly unused bikes, he's not into cycling! Hence not buying stuff. Wanted to get into it, bought nice bike, hasn't happened, sells bike.

Looks legit to me.
