Ebay warning, fraudulent auctions

I guess these criminals are taking people for their money as they won’t stop posting these Felt B2 auctions. Get a load of the category the auction is posted in !

I reported it to Ebay so the link may be broken soon.

Not sure what it was, since I never saw the listing, but good job!

But they are not all fake. There are still great deals to be had if you are willing to ride 650’s. I scored a 10 speed B2 for $1100 because it is a 650c and no one bid on it. I think the key is to contact the seller and make sure you have discussions offline with that individual. That has helped me on multiple occassions as I’ve bought 5 bikes on ebay without issue.

I reported two additional fraudulent auctions last eve. One of the B2’s was listed under L’oreal makeup, LOL !! It’s the consistency of it that bugs me. I’ve seen at least a dozen auctions for B2’s (I bid on the first one) and they are all telling people to contact the seller offline before bidding, and also claiming a buy it now price outside of the auction.
