They forgot one thing. The ad should have started "Once upon a time..."
About the only one I can think of who would pay that much for a bike is Robin Williams.

Not my size, anyway.
Online retailers are selling them for under $8,000.00.
What was it that PT Barnum said?

"far below retail"
haha, i wonder who bet $75,000 on that bike. He was probably trying to bet $7,500 and hit the extra 0.

Isn't this an ebay scam? Seller with 0 rating, outside the US selling a very high quality bike? Caveat Emptor.

The current high bidder dramatically jacked up the highest bid amount in order to prevent anyone from buying from this seller. It's a common tactic ... he/she is doing us all a favor. The seller is obviously trying to pull a fast one.

Seller is not a registered user,they'll never be able to sell it,I can't believe ebay hasn't cancelled that auction yet. I bet they don't take escrow.com and notice no paypal option-probably wants western union that most scammers use.

Obivously a scam but it also states this at the end of the auction, I hope no one has released any personal info to these scammers for the sake of a joke. ????
To place a bid of US $15,000.00 or more, you'll need to provide a valid credit card or complete the ID Verify process ($5).
This is a private auction. Your identity will not be disclosed to anyone except for the seller.

Asked for a pic and received this response from seller. Why not settle for millions- hahaha.
Will you offer me at least the reserve price for this item ?
This is an opportunity for you because the final selling price must be
larger or equal to the reserve price. If someone outbids you later,
you may end up paying more than the reserve price.I am willing to sell
for the reserve price because that save time for me. I can always
setup a buy it now transaction if we manage to close a deal.
I sell brand new sealed items, but if you are ok with like-new items,
I also sell ex demo items, complete, just like the new one is, but the
box was open. All items come with manufacturer's warranty.
I also sell used units in good condition, if you want to pay even less
money.
Please get back to me with your answer. Thank you !
PS: Let me know what is your budget for a purchase like this, please.
