[Coyote]

That is effing cheap

I'll be watching for the next few minutes. Maybe final bids will go past 10k?

[Cajun]

wonder if goes thru

[kiwifruit]

[The Stranger]

Look at the rego. Which country has a rego plate like that?

[kiwifruit]

[The Stranger]

His profile shows several vehicles for sale.

[bistard]

thats a bloody english plate, they have yellow plates, which suggests that if its in the country then it hasn't been rego'd

[Fishy]

Maybe I should buy it :yes:

I dont think its that hard to get it VINed,you have to prove ownership!

[dawnrazor]

bloody trade me has ruined the second hand market (from a selling perspective of course)

[Squeak the Rat]

Either the speedo is in kph or he's lying about the mileage (can you swap mph wioth kph on these bikes?)

[Edit:] Not an Auckland wheelie bin in the background either :sherlock:

[dawnrazor]

$12,650

bloody hell

[Fishy]

$12,600 what a bargain!

[kiwifruit]

bloody ell, 12,600 eh.... seems a bit shady!

[bugjuice]

engrish number plate.

rule of thumb: if it's too good to be true, it often is.

[Cajun]

interesting if deal goes thru

[bistard]

Seems a bit weird,the reserve price was $1.00
Either someone has got a bargain,or they have just been ripped off

[RC1]

sold for 12600

[bistard]

I was just thinking,could you imagine if you just shelled out $12600.00,get the bike delivered & find its a pre production model,stolen from somewhere &
has no motor internals
Hahaha

[The Stranger]

Photos don't look like they are in NZ.
Looks like he may be an importer - nothing wrong with that of course, but wording is such as he owns it. Again he may, but something doesn't quite look right about it to me.

[dawnrazor]

you can see the unanswered questions now

[Squeak the Rat]

They are selling a few other cars and have sold others previously. I wonder if they are a licenced dealer.......???:innocent:

[Edit:] IOULIA OUNDAKOVA is the director, based in Mt Wellington... Hmmm, false advertising on the bike methinks.......

[MrMelon]

Auction was pulled and offered to watchers for $15k.. what a crock. Not like it wasn't an obvious scam to begin with tho.

[dawnrazor]

I have just been made a fized price offer fromm the seller for 15K and I never even bid once.....how dodgy is that.......if anyone is stupid enough to pay money into a bank account on this on they need they head examined

[Squeak the Rat]

The buyer was a first time trader too. Email trademe and the commerce commission.

Bastards.

[Coyote]

"hi would u except 8000 cash"

Argh I hate people like them

EDIT: I also hate whoever ''mc-motors" is cause their name sounds like a dealers, and I hate how dealers hunt down deals like this

[Fishy]

"hi would u except 8000 cash"


I had a guy offer me $11k for mine when it was on trademe, bloody joke. Didn't even bother to reply.

[dawnrazor]

I called trade me...they are on to it....one look and they knew it was DODGY

[Squeak the Rat]

Good stuff, I just emailed them too.

[LilSel]

Their membership thingie has been disabled now lol... good job :Punk:
