Default What sort of people are on e-bay?!?

My dad was looking at a motorbike on there last night but the guy didnt say what engine it was so he asked him a question being: 'Is it a 2 or 4 cylinder'
The guy replys... 'I dont know, but its 16v'

Personally, unless you new exactly what you were lookin for, I think there are always better places to buy what you want from. I prefer talkin and buyin face to face anyway, then I can suss them out better, even if you have to pay a bit more. Mabey its just me bein a bit paranoid.

Ask Mr James Raby what he thinks of E-Bay. There was an RS turbo S2 for sale, claiming 380bhp, trouble is the pikey sellin it didn't realise people would pick up on the fact he's talkin shit from the pics of the standard lookin engine bay. std turbo, std boost hoses, no oil breather etc...... Trouble is, some poor sap has paid 6K for it!!!!!!!!!!!!!
