It's back then gone - the mysterious Racing Katana!

My Saved Ebay search showed that racing Katana on again and then almost immediately removed! What is the score with them doing that? That's about the 3rd or 4th time.

UB, This has been an ongoing listing for at least 2 yrs. The original post was for this bike plus a load of spare parts. It got sold then just the bike reappeared, same photo but with various sellers all selling for a friend without eBay but an email address. Only on for a short while before being pulled. There's also a GT750 doing the rounds at the moment with other items including a fair few speedboats.
All the dubious ads show original listing photos.

Its a scam, they get you to email their 'friend who owns it' and then try and deal outside of egay normally by bank transfer or whatever..........

Once all arranged and transferred they disappear funnily enough :oops:

It's gone again! WTF are they doing?
Also it appeared in my Ebay email 3 times each, like it was listed 3 times.

Yep! That's why I copied and pasted the contact details from the last advert. So you can get in touch and ask them all sorts of leading questions :lol:
