Hi
I'm really tempted to buy this Boardman Comp on eBay. But I dont totally trust the auction for some reason.
My suspicions are thus:
1) Local collection only, fine. But when I asked him whether he'd accept Cash on Collection, he basically said no, Paypal only. I know Paypal has a resolution dispute service, but I've heard lots of horror stories about it.
2) I asked for further clarification on the size, he said that "I am 5' 9" but would be suitable a couple of inches either way." - which seems a bit big for a 50cm bike?
3) His feedback rating is low.
Am I being unduly suspicious? If this does turn out to be a dud, then what good is Paypals resolution service?
Thanks
