    I say you already brought it. If you want quit it now give the guy his money and list it on trademe. Trademe is bad enough without people avocating deals turning to shit.
    Erm, how can I kick the tyres if I've never seen the bike.

    Just email him and tell him u changed your mind. Eat the neg feedback, and carry on. He claims the fee back off TM and relists it.

    "read what Steve says. He's right."
    "What Steve said pretty much summed it up."
    "I did axactly as you said and it worked...!!"
    "Wow, Great advise there DB."
    WTB: Hyosung bikes or going or not.

    Why not tell the guy selling it what happened and see if you can just give him $50 or something to make up for fucking him round

    This one of the big no noes on Trademe and jhappens all the time. They have got really tough about it now because people doing what you did completely stuffs the system.

    There's talk of permanent bans for people who do this. It also doesn't work to use a different name ... they're tracking IP numbers.

    You own a Spada, bad luck.

    You agreed to the real simple rules, whereby bidding, you are legally obliged to buy.
