A few people have noticed this on ebay, their vigilance, makes you hopeful if it ever was actually stolen!

I'm definitely not selling it and it's definitely currently attached to the turbo in the spare room so it's not stolen. Maybe they're just too lazy to take their own pictures and stole mine off here/flickr, or maybe there is no bike. Either way there's a wiff of kippers about it.
So - If I understand this right - that bike photo on ebay is yours - but physically is actually safely tucked up in your lounge/shed?
If so report it to ebay as a scam. It (and the user) will be gone shortly.
Maybe they plan on stealing it after thew auction finishes
Have you upset Mrs TINAS?
Maybe its a fanposter auction?
Plus why were you looking at the same model? Value to sell. (Cough to me??)
If you sell it to Hora, be prepared to start a simliar topic in about three weeks time.
Dodgy add in classified, someone has stolen my picture and is using it to sell what use to be my bike. ๐
If I buy the pic. Does that mean I own its soul? Everytime you ride it it'll feel possesed?
Looks like a hijacked user account that's mostly used to sell clothes. Report it, the legitimate account holder may not be aware.
I've seen the same SC Tallboy photos several times (I have a saved search for it). Last week it was on a bookshop's account.
Ask if they have anymore pictures of the bike.
then send them some ๐
Ah hijacked... Send money etc then clear off
Thinking of putting in the highest bid then not paying. That way no one gets scammed.
Just report it and be done. Ebay can't take action if they don't know about it. And the account needs restoring to the legitimate owner also.
I did that this morning.
