Unfortunately haven't had it out but once. It's on the coast about 200 miles away. Took it for a quick test ride and that was it. Hope to get out again this weekend. Bought it to play with the kids along the coast and in the waves.

Maybe we should cool it for a bit - make the idiot think he is doing well?
Then in a day or 2 ramp it up a bit more - then win it with the spoof account of yours - payment details could be useful......

Just checked his "other items" - he has a bow for sale - quite a few bids on it as well - wonder if the poor buggers know - maybe we should step in?

So what happens if JNewton came up with the cunning idea of convincing you guys that its a scam so that you'd bid for it? Is the £12K bid legally binding?

The whole advert just smells fishy anyway - the Yank photos and wording give it away!!!

He'd have to find me 1st. Neither of my accounts that I've bid with are connected to me.
Who wants a go at the bow? It'll have to be someone other than me,Codders or Des or the scammer might suss.

Actually, I can send e-bay a message that the ad is a fake and a copy of one I purchased. But this is fun, interesting to see haw far it will go. Would be a little different if someone copied a listing for a computer that was the same model.

Sad truth is that ebay provides a very healthy environment for scammers to profit at others' expense - and it chooses to do nothing about it. I've wound up a couple of scamming scum but you're not even scratching the surface. Fact is punters are losing millions every week on ebay and no-one gives a sh*t!

Now Now who says he's Yank? The ADVERT is Yank but that is all - he's prob one of our Nigerian "friends" - or some Eastern European that Tony blair has let in!!!
Mate'ws wife works in the DVLA - they are currently getting about 5000 licence applications every WEEK from these Eastern Europeans - how many aren't bothering???

I think Ebay has removed the item, I had it on my watch list and now its gone, and I also can not find it by searching.
