it's funny/pathetic when somebody posts a scam auction on eBay (and actually gets bids), especially when it's so obviously bogus.

i've already reported it but who can spot how many incorrect notes are made in describing this 999S

btw... is "onebadchaser" a 'zilla member? your pics are being used here...

Two bids from same bidder - probably him or his buddy. Other items sold include women's french knickers

and dart flights. Too good.

It's amazing how alike these two bikes are and yet one is in Indiana and the other is in England.

Wonder if we should email the guy in England and tell him we just got in from Indiana and saw the exact same bike in person. Please email a picture of your bike with a helmet sitting on the seat, ya know, just to prove you have it.

So I emailed this tool. Here's what I wrote:

"Ebay has been alerted to your bogus auction. I'd pull down that ad and
split as they usually open investigations into large fraud cases such
as yours.

Word of advice...next time don't use the same pictures from a legit ad
of a bike located in Indiana and running at the same time as yours."

And his fine response:

"maibe you will make me a blowjob

suker"

Yeah...I'm the sucker.
