My final comment :-I love this frame and I dont WANT to sell it I NEED to sell it. I have rent and a family to support. I honestly don't know how you think it should work - do you only ever sell for what you paid? How would that benefit the original seller?
Many people buy on here and sell elsewhere for a profit. Many ask high prices for the stuff on sale on here - who knows what they paid for it. I have sold lots of stuff on here for a loss or given it away as have many others.
I put it on Ebay for £1000 to take £800 min best offer minus Ebay and Paypal charges on item and post leaves about £675 . Which is about what they are worth.
I had no Idea it was of that sort of value until I saw the one Haveo bought and based my price on that.
Selling my frame is bad enough but selling for less than it's worth and then having to sell something else as well would be worse.
When I have money round me I buy stuff on the forum for what the seller asks and when I'm short I sell some stuff -sometimes I lose money sometimes I make -some bike stuff goes up in value very quickly some doesn't.
No ban.
He's not flipping it on here, and as far as I can tell someone else entirely posted the eBay link (which is OK... people can do that).
I guess what it really comes down to is whether he can have that on his conscience, but that's money... if you need it enough (and I know nothing about him, his circumstances or anything) then I can see that being fine for him.
The rest of us may find it distasteful, but it is what it is.
It's his bike, and if wants to split and flip it then so be it. If he'd posted it here I would've stepped in, but as it is this is not bannable.
