watch out for this chappy:
thomasgrov@earthlink.net

got in touch with him about a CBR he had, these were his last couple of emails:

"I can hold the bike for you , but i need to know how much can you give right now ! If i will recieve $800.00 for it i will send it to you and give me the rest of money when you sell your house.
Let me know.
Thank you !"

and

"Yes i've removed the add.
Where i really don't know what to say about the bike , the engine sound awsome , the engine working like new never damages never repaired , you will also have 15 business days to return it back if you wont be satisfy.
I'm curently located in Uk and the bike will be shipped from here . I'm here to spend my holydays . I will pay for all the shipping taxes , and the bike will be insured also.

Thank you and hope we will finish the deal."

they could at least try and be a little more original.
smells a little of 'nigerian coffee' to me...

Did you check the grammar and spelling?

To be a scammer, does english have to be your second language?

Did you forward the emails to Trademe ? I am sure they would be interested.

Ah yes, Trademe scum - at least I have 100% positive feedback over there.
