The way i see it is, that the owner didnt sell 1st time round and has chucked it up again....he wants the same price, seems ok to me.

Not so sure. If you check his nom-de-plume and the contact name at the bike shop could be the guy at the shop?

Either way Ed...the close dates are the telling factor, same bike, slightly different add, owner didnt sell it first time round so has re-auctioned it. Yes, this sort of naughtness can confuse some people....:eek:

Could be...but why list it twice, and pay twice the listing fees?

Seems a bit suspect to me

Well spotted, mine had 6. Maybe he's only got one hand to count with and can't go past five?
