Hendrix Posted March 2, 2007 Report Share Posted March 2, 2007 did you get his IP ? (Or what ever it is)you can trace to the exact place he lives, and smack him up, steal his car, and rape his dog etc etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greetings Posted March 2, 2007 Report Share Posted March 2, 2007 (edited) 30-45 business days is 6-9 weeks and that's how long this kind of shipping takes although I would have thought it'd be much more expensive than 40 pounds.I'd never buy anything from China, there are way too many crooks there. This bike's worth about 4-5 grand and you got it for 80 pounds. Ok fair enough, production costs are very low but for christ sake, this is carbon fibre, 1 square metre 3mm thick costs about 300 pounds and that's just the material!!Ask him to take a picture of a piece of paper with your user name written down, and with the bike in the background. That will at least give you some idea about whether he's actually got what he's selling.edit: oh and if it arrives, be prepared to pay tax for it... and for the love of god get some good evidence that you bought it for 80 quid!! Iedit2: haha i actually asked him to send me a pic with my user name on it, this is what i got in reply (in a matter of 2 minutes from when i sent my email). For anyone who has ever dealt with the Chinese, the response time will already be suspicious! Shops take days, sometimes weeks to reply...dear friend i am a reliable seller. the item i sell is the same as the pictures ,it is super quality and in good condition. and i use the paypal to accept the money .this is the best way to do business ,through this way,you can have enough guarantee on your right. please give me your understanding i have great interest in building a good business-ship with . i will do my best to service for you please contact with me,if you have further question. best regards Edited March 2, 2007 by Inur Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That description OBVIOUSLY comes from someone that knows f**k all about the bike. He probably got that small amount of information from a shop spec on a website.Cheers, Rorz!

Fish-Finger-er Posted March 2, 2007 Report Share Posted March 2, 2007 Well, the one that I won is Item Number 250089551308. The title states it is a 928 Carbon Road Bike.Eitherway, it looks like I'm going to recive some sort of bike.On the basis that me and a friend both bought one, and we have both paid, if we don't get what we thought.. It's skull crushing time.I'll keep you posted.erm, cant say youll recieve a bike at all, im willing to bet you £10 you wont get a bike off this mandid you get his IP ? (Or what ever it is)you can trace to the exact place he lives, and smack him up, steal his car, and rape his dog etc etcwould be a good idea, but the bloke is based in china, therefore he knows he safe from dog rapin 17 year olds. I read that and saw the 'Blacklisted Trader' status you worked so hard for...Made me laugh anyway.lol, he didnt have to work hard, he just forgot to send out my parts in 2003, along with several other peoples. as for the bikes its a scam they dont exist, the whole 30-45 days shipping time, is hes going to have to be assumed innocent an genuine till he does something wrong, by which time its 7 weeks down the line, the blokes withrawn the money from the account, closed it, an buggered off, making a couple of grand in the process. its pretty much as tomm says if hes never had any experience in selling this stuff before,an is suddenly sellin 112 bikes on ebay, it arrouses suspicion to me. the people that have left feedbacks on bike stuff, havent even recieved there items yet.

guineasmithpig Posted March 3, 2007 Report Share Posted March 3, 2007 (edited) i'd still cry if the bikes actually came through. though it does look unlikely.i'm hangin on for someone to send me some stuff. got 2 filthy ard guards, brand new and packaged, for £1.99 each. seems a little daft price, but i got an address and everything for the shop selling them, and they have good feedback. will be my second bargain of the year (first was a raceface turbine chainset with bb and v12s for £35 posted, last year was my revell 450r frame for £80)you can get some super cheap stuff, but make sure you get some good contact details if they have low feedback. and i only deal with uk sellersSmithy Edited March 3, 2007 by guineasmithpig Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
