Scott Spark For Sale: to good to be true

[TheJ]

Because everyone who has ever bought/sold a bike had the perfectly sized bike?

 

Maybe he's selling because the bike is too small?

 

Because everyone sells a R28000 bike for R4500, because the size isn't right.

Lets be frank. Call a spade a spade.

The ad might as well have flashing red lights. Stolen! Stolen! Stolen!

Every bone in my body tells me so. But that's just it. My intuition.

 

BUT... 

Until there is proof the bike was stolen. I can't make any accusations.

I can't accuse the seller no matter how suspicious I may think the ad is.

Do you smell that?  I think it's Friday coming around the corner...

Some strong sarcasm too.  Pity it's lost on most here.

He is selling it for R4500.....who cares if the owner is black or white or pink.

 

That's just ridiculously low and lights should be flashing.

I know bikes depreciate value the moment they wheeled out the shop but ...wow...

Enough already, can someone please contact the guy and hear what he has to say about this bargain?

[dirtypot]

I thought I was right, but I had to check, and yip - it really is still Thursday!

Then arrange a meet 'n greet.

 

I bet it would be a real Thriller. Just remember, not everything is Black and White.

did any of you boxes that claim the bike is stolen report the matter to the police? if so, pls keep us informed on the state of affairs if you don't mind.

Jis ou, drink 'n chill pil toe.

 

Anyhoo, when people try to scam me with the usual "I am out of the country but my cousin will collect" stuff, I send their numbers with a quick description to crime line and yes, I always say "suspected scammer". Probably the least of their worries but it's something.
