  Any one lost a Litespeed Siena fixed gear with dura ace stuff? This listing seems dodgy to me.
  http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...#ht_500wt_1156

  *"Selling as son has moved abroad and doesn't want it"*
  "Built to Order - From Litespeed, cost over £3,000.00"

  what i thought was strange was that he clearly says its his sons then later on he says;
  *"Does have engraved panel with my name on it which can be removed"*

  I did some hunting and found the original listing. which the description is copied from. The odd thing I thought was that if he's selling it for his son (presumably the original account it was listed on), why is that account still selling things, namely expensive looking watches? surely you'd list it on the account with good feedback and that you originally listed it on.
  also:

  • the seller only has one feedback for buying some swan filters
    
  • only been registered since the 13/1/11
    
  • its 99p with 10 hours to go, only two bids from the same person.
    
  • the shipping period is 18-20 days from a uk address
    
  • the original listing has more photos, making me think that the new Lister has just taken the one from the old listing, you can't easily download the other ones.
    
    
    

  I might be reading into this a bit much, just doesn't seem 100% to me. its a expensive bike to let go for 99p

  EDIT: The listing has been taken down just after i posted this, and their account was closed down.

  le dodgy me thinks.

  In reply to this post. This is my bike which I am trying to sell.
  I have never told anyone that it is my son's. I do not have a son. This bike was built through Litespeed when I owned Up and Running based in East Sheen SW14. The bike was order through Chris Hewings the rep at Litespeed. Dave Taylor put it all together, (he is now a mechanic at Sigma sport). Posts like these can be very damaging when you have on facts what so ever. The bike also has a £1500.00 reserve not a .99p as suggested.
