Ok now I'm putting my big brother face on here: I bid for some stuff from this seller (or the other account he has) its a group of 17 year olds living on a council estate in birmingham (I know this co's I went there and theres no way those kids have a license for a big bike - I may be way off base here but my gut tells me different), I'm not going to say its nicked because I don't want some sort of liability ...................... but please be careful giving a postal address as you just don't know what the possible underlying pretence of the sale (thats not to say you won't get the wheel) ....... just be careful what details you give out as in a location of where your pride and joy is. It is also a bit strange that he doesn't know they're Oz - calls them blue wheels

Yours paranoid

The spelling makes them sound like scum. FFS who would run a bike for too long with out oil. You wouldn't run it full stop!

Couldn't agree with you guys more.
The more you buy from them the more it encorages them to trade in dodgy parts as well.

Oh, I saw you had feedback Dan.
I nearly went for it and got it collected by courier but he did seem clueless. To be honest, I was being greedy and was going to buy it, flog the tyre to my mate and then list the wheel properly after christmas.
Certainly don't want to encourage stolen RSV parts, but it's already for sale.
Maybe or hopefully someone off here won it, can have it and then send the filth round afterwards?!

tis what I've done

irate

was a little worried about it and then he didn't have all the parts so told him no - we parted with my money firmly in my hand, but I don't want bad feedback so we left it at that.

To be honest I don't think you would've had a problem getting the item (but again I don't know) its the giving out your location I'm not too keen on. I'm not too keen to buy stolen stuff - its one of those "what comes around goes around" things, I've had a bike nicked so was pretty pissed off, but then again you sometimes will never know if somethings moody or not - I just had a gut feeling on this one and wanted everyone to consider what I had experienced so as not to be left short.

Mate, Ebay sellers can no longer leave bad feedback for buyers, period. So slag the ******* off if you've got the opportunity.
