short listings are a favourite ,less chance of the owner seeing it .
receipts don’t mean a lot had the police in asking if we had sold a bike and someone had made a copy of one of our invoices,looked really good but we have never sold that brand.
facebook is the new place for them to sell,get a bike ,swap with someone 50 miles away and sell on a local buy/swap site ,little chance of seeing your bike again.it’s always easy to tell who is legit some are now very clued up and not daft,swop a few sensible items and change the look of the bike.sad thing now you can’t even look at a buyers history on e bay as it’s now not possible to see what they have bought /sold in the past.
