  1. Cannot believe the price of this one, it's almost insulting? is this a scam I think it's the same seller from the other day?

  2. The phone number suggests its in Belfast. If its real and they sell it, great, if not don't worry about. Unless of course you want to buy it :tongue:
     
  3. Er, doesn't sound quite right to me.......... However, if you fancy trying for the bargain of the century, go for it !
     
  4. It's under valued by at least £6,000 which suggests to me it may be dodgy
     
  5. Yep, a Belfast phone number. The description, using the words "We are delighted to offer for sale this 1 owner UK Ducati 1198S" would suggest this is a dealer.
    I can't imagine any proper dealer underpricing a bike by such a large amount, in this case, at least £4000. I must admit though, the thing that would put me off the most is that the seller has no feedback.
    If i was in the market for an 1198s, i would be very tempted to get a plane over to Belfast and have a good look at it. It is a classified ad, so if it's legit, and offer can be made and the bike ridden away.
    I wouldn't buy it through e-bay though...........................far to easy to get screwed that way.

     
  6. you could have a bit of fun with them , i have done this before they will want you to send money to them before you see the bike ,and they will deliver it to to but the fun is to say you will go to them with cash and see what they do
     
  7. If they're washing money at these rates, it's not the kind of dealer you want to cross!
     
  8. It seems to no longer be available. Funny, that.....
     
  9. I value my knee caps too :biggrin:
     
  10. That's exactly what happened to the white 1198 he put on the other day
     
  11. pity i could have had fun there im only twenty miles away. 99p sim card =hours of fun
