Re: 280 GES on ebay

pp, why not ring the geezer selling it direct. see what he has to say , and you will get  a idea of where he's coming from....
if there is a scam and it comes off ebay you still have contact details mate.

i would jump in a motor and go see it.

you reckon his mate is trying to up the value ?

is a nice G though....

That is not as sinister as you think. The stats only show the last 30 days of his bidding history. He has made a total of 8 bids during this period, 2 of which were for the item you are bidding on. Hence 25% of his bid history is with that seller.  Quite innocent really and unlikely to be a scam.

Do you  sit at home with silver foil on your head in case the aliens beam things into your brain ? peter paranoid !

Re: 280 GES on ebay

Power buyer (34k ebay score) bought it and a transporter!
It looked like a seriously nice project.  I was tempted to replace/recycle my trusty 230GE - same colour - I don't think the missus would have even noticed.
