Help Wanted, Tips Anyone?

Postby Jan » Tue Feb 28, 2006 3:37 am

HI All,

I have been looking for a Bike on Ebay for a while now.
And Tonight Out Of The Blue, on Ebay several top-line Cannondale bike's VERY Cheap.

These Auctions raised some flags with me
1. "of the 4 different sellers they have almost the same bikes"
2. "all have to be contacted to close the deal"
3. "just 1 accepts pay pal, the others want Escrow"
(never used this before so I'm a bit anxsious. 2 recommended
escrowseze.com & escrowproservice.com)
4. "They all offer free shipping" And Sell world wide they hardly ever
do. ( Next to that shipping to Holland ain't cheap)
5. all Auctions end within 1 day (as if they wanne rush the decision!)

Anybody share's my superstion...?..

Would be nice to have some advice.
Thanx
Jan

Both sites are being run by a gypsy in Romania.
He goes by the moniker deepsoul
BTW both sites are fraud.

Hi Jan,

Try to buy a bike locally - there's enough of them here in NL. Or - the safest bet is to travel to Belgium of Germany to pick it up in person.

En dan nog een volle tank benzine goedkooper mee.... :)
