suspicious

no frame size, no make/model, no wheel size, no gear spec, no reason for selling, no knowledge of bikes whatsoever apparent

Anyone who bids on this is an idiot, or just as guilty as the seller seemingly is.

They have only sold one item, and that was back in 07 so we can't see what it was. Every other bit of feedback is them being the buyer. certainly fishy.

I'm assuming it's a scott addict R1- but why didnt the seller advertise it as such??

Always something wrong when you get someone who knows nothing about bikes advertising something that costs over £5000 that only an enthusiast would buy....he's not even listed the frame size for god's sake:angry:

jesus...some fool has bid for it - I don't understand how enthusiasts looking for a bike like this could bid - it's clearly stolen.

Saying it is clearly stolen is may be a bit harsh.

Agreed, it doesn't look legit but in the description it says being sold after an accident, and it doesn't expressly state that its the seller that had the accident. It could be that the person selling isn't the person who would have been riding it.

These people have different user IDs and bid up their own auctions or get their mates to up the bid :biggrin:.
