What Would You Do??

Discussion in 'Ducati General Discussion' started by Chris.P, Aug 7, 2014.

  1. What would you do if you saw the engine from the bike you had sold on ebay stating that it had only done 12000 miles when in fact you have the proof that the engine had done 24000 miles????
     
  2. Contact ebay and contact seller.
     
    • Agree Agree x 2
  3. If you have proof its the same one, as Spike Lee said 'Do the Right thing'
     
  4. Reported listing to ebay, but there system does not allow you to give the exact reason :(
     
  5. Yep, the Ebay system is designed so scammers still make them their commission, Ebay eh, worse than Bernie Eccleston!!! :Banhappy:
     
  6. My people are watching this Forum :cool: that is so close to the bone Mr Exige - I am far worse than then armatures, oh and while I'm on, Lotus are bloody rubbish!

  8. crappy watches!
     
  9. Yep, lots of watches
     
  10. yip but at the end of the day what can elt and robby do to harm me hidden away up here in the outback?
     
  11. Lots of Trouble - Usual Serious.....and that's just Pastor Maldonado ;)
     
  12. ....and most likely they'll do nothing!!
    Watch the auction and contact any buyer, they'll at least have the option to cancel the transaction 'not as described'.

    Ebay link?
     
  13. Yep, ebay will do nothing unfortunately :(
     
  14. Trading standards ??
     
  15. Asked a question re documentation and proof of mileage. Here is reply.

    Hi I haven't got anything to confirm the mileage but even if I had it wouldn't matter cause then people would still say oh the engine was used in another bike etc. etc. so I gave up on this kind of stuff long time ago however it is easy to tell for an expert this is a low mileage engine also all original parts included and the low mileage is evident on those as well. I've ridden the bike personally and enjoyed every minute of it this 853 conversion is amazing sounds deeper as well due to the bigger capacity. Anyway you'll get warranty and receipt so nothing to worry about.Engine is ready just plug in and play.I've sold 20 engines at least this year so far and everybody is happy.I can do the package as advertised on ebay for 1500pounds on a private deal but you are welcome to bid on ebay as well cheers

    Sounds like a totally trustworthy guy to me????
     
  16. Barge pole touch wouldn't I ;-)
     

  17. He has got the proof, every bit of it.

    If you do an HPI check does it give you the engine number as well as the mileage??????

    Chris.
     
  18. None I've ever done have provided the mileage. Its optional only when selling to mark it on the v5.
     
  19. I can get a copy of the last service, but not sure if it will show the engine number :-(
