RE: ebay bike for real???
First... we know this is a scam... I proved that by finding a year old listing selling the same bike in Scotland... same VIN and same write up. For a bike with only 372 miles on it... it sure does get around a lot.
If anyone wants to see the listing, I still have the link. It’s on another forum and even moderators can’t break the rules… I’ll PM it to you.
cbr04, I wasn't saying anything bad... sorry if you took offense to what I typed.
Ok… I list a 2006 CBR 600RR that was bought for me for Christmas… only has 300 miles on it and I’m selling it because I’m afraid of it. Auction starts at $100 and a buy it now price of $2000. How many sportbikes lovers are going to use their valid email address to contact me on the “bids open to approved bidders only listâ€. Now I have your email and a few hundred more and all it cost me was the listing price on eBay. I do that a few times and I have thousands of valid emails to sell to SPAMMERS.

RE: ebay bike for real???
thanks alot guys, here is the response i got 
Hello,
I received your e-mail about my bike 2004 HONDA CBR600 RR. The bike is in perfect working condition, with no damage at all, the title is clear.
Total price with shipping included is $2500 .First you need to know that now I`m located in United Kingdom with my wife because she will suffer a kidney transplant. For our protection I want to make the transaction thru eBay Motors. You will have 14 business days to inspect the bike before I will receive the payment from them.
In this way we will be 100% protected. If you are interested please reply.
I`m waiting for your reply.
Best Regards
Alex McCoy
so thanks alot for the help and anyone that comes across a bike too good to be true with a "must be a pre-approved bidder" at the top, dont waste your time. thanks guys. i would only do business with these guys if they were close so i could give money on spot for the bike but obviously these guys are a scam and thank you very much.
