Re: Newbie- Fallen in Love with the Helix
Yeah I saw that one Jim, very nice but 3 times the cost of mine so ill keep on at mine for a bit, get it running properly and if I fall for it maybe upgrade to a newer / nicer condition one in the future.Jimo wrote: ↑Fri Sep 04, 2020 3:23 pm Another very nice one here - in Wolverhampton https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/303673014302

You remember this one? He relisted it as an auction and it stuck at 6-700 for a couple of days so he ended it with nearly a week to go!Jimo wrote: ↑Fri Sep 04, 2020 3:23 pm Another very nice one here - in Wolverhampton https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/303673014302

Re: Newbie- Fallen in Love with the Helix
For a moment I thought you’d bought it? Now why would a seller stop a sale TWICE? ending an auction having days to run? Could it be that the bike was stolen and the seller was a chump?
A strange thing but the first ad for this bike stayed up for days having a note that it was cancelled by the seller because of an error.
And now re-listed the ad for auction this time says the same thing!?
So now check this one out, it’s in London! https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/274490229736

This one’s got a damaged dashboard and something wrong with the screen which looks misty.....also has two buttons missing from dash.
Q. Why would a seller advertise a dirty bike for high price?
