If it had a longer seat post I`d have a bid myself

THAT IS MY OLD DIAMOND BACK SILVERSTREAK I SOLD TO HIM ABOUT 18 MONTHS AGO. IT IS A FANTASTIC EXAMPLE AND WAS IN GREAT CONDITION WHEN I HAD IT. I WOULD SAY THE BIDDING may have BEEN JACKED UP A BIT BY HIS MATE? I COULD BE WRONG BUT THAT IS MY OPINION.

SHILL BIDDING ALERT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The bidder v11pal definately is his pal

He won this from the same seller a few weeks ago: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=20387&item=8764689231

and funnily enough the seller now has an identical one up again for auction which v11pal id currently winning again: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Rare-Limited-Edition-DOA-Kasumi-Chan-Blue-X-Box_W0QQitemZ8777918857QQcategoryZ20387QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

Also seems to be bidding on quite a few of his items: http://cgi6.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewBidItems&userid=v11pal&completed=1&all=1&rows=25&sort=3

Could just be coincidence but I don't think so - BEWARE!!!!

There is

http://pages.ebay.co.uk/help/policies/seller-shill-bidding.html

Click on "Report", fill in the details (its anonymous so no one will know who reported them) and sit back and wait until the seller and/or bidder gets suspended - I have used this a few times and they do take action

PS You will have to sign into your account before you can fill out the form.

email the seller, and calmly tell him that we know he is cheating

sam hudson · « **Reply #12 on:** March 14, 2006, 07:41 PM »

Yeah,that kind of cak gets on my nerves.It why i prefer to buy from Rad members wherever possible.I bought my Silver Streak from a Rad member for a fair price,its a GREAT example and we did the deal in minutes.I try not to buy from Ebay for whole bikes.

I VOTE RAD

Well Done,that kind of S### should be stopped.

Take that

Seller.

sam hudson · « **Reply #15 on:** March 15, 2006, 07:28 PM »

The highest bidder has been informed of our suspicions and is most upset...he's only got 2 feedback and he was going to pay £510 for it...its not right to do that to anyone let alone someone as new to Evilbay as that.

Well done for spotting that ,you've saved someone a lot of cash lads.

Good on ya.

Well it seems that the fella was happy to pay £510 for the Streak.
When you consider that the Leary turbo is currently at £410 ooooh its a lot more bike.
Still he's happy and it looks like a good bike so everyones a winner(sort of).
