Stolen bikes

Just had a call from a friend on Englefield Road, he's just seen a sketchy looking dude, hood up, dirty tracksuits, riding unclipped/dangerously on a dark blue/purple frame, black trick forks, risers and gold deep section rims.

Anyone lost/heard about anything?

that rings a bell from a few pages back something similar spotted outside a barbers near the lightbar

this thread is so sad, it's like a long list of missing babies

If the police don't act this afternoon I'll put links up to my parts on eBay being sold off...that way no one having my babies!!

You should ve post the links long time, as soon you found your bits. give us the links, will help

yeah don't let them finish the auction!

Aye aye. Get em up.

Is there anything we can do?
Inundate the seller with accusatory/damning emails?
Every little helps n that.

Links!

bid all items up to £1000000

yeah was wondering about that. Could we get away with it?

I think last time a couple of people got their accounts banned for it, but two sham accounts should be able to bid up everything he owns>?

Links, please

I can go into all the reasons why these are my bits...... I am 100% and the Police are not communicating to me what is happening. Been down there 3 times this week and still nothing. Ebay require the Police to make contact not me.

Ebay informed. Realise there is a way to do this. Hopefully they will take them down....Someone down near me had 7 bikes recently stolen worth £25k :-(

We going to abuse this bloke or what?

Should mail questions asking if these items are stolen

How about you bid and win them, then get them delivered, then get paypal refund.

...too easy?

ha! great idea

A black / red unipack with a blue chain got taken from outside the Northgate on Wednesday night after closing. It had been outside for weeks with some shitty chain on the frame and an abus D lock through the front wheel. I told the owner a few times that someone would have it.
Fixed with no foot retention!
No real loss.

As you were.

Asked if he wanted to return them........gave me some rubbish about being a victim of bike crime himself etc etc and calling him a thief.
The fact he doesn't even know the wheel is a tub and he told my mate its a clincher....!!
Better set up a sham account.

ha! great idea

wouldn't work. If you open a dispute in paypal it withholds the money from the seller, but also from you.

Apparently he is mailing me some receipts so i'll keep you informed. May be bluffing me so i'll keep my mind open........... a man knows his bits when he sees them!

let us know if you get any as there is not much time left to screw up the auction

2010 Focus Cayo with Cole rear wheel and FSA front fitted with MKS GR9 flat pedals. Nicked from the bike stands at Notting Hill Gate tube station (south side of street - between the two exits) between 6:10pm and 8:45pm today (Friday).

Frame and front wheel locked to stand with abus steel-o-flex (missing). Knew I should have taken the d-lock from work but bag was loaded. Ah well live and learn.
