I wish I could say it was me but sadly no! I did Ebay mesage them about it and they declined to answer and then it was half term last week and we were away for some of that and trying to fit all my work in the 2 days I was working and I just didn't get time in the day to call them and came back last night and saw you post. I think roughly the same happened last October with the GSX250S that was on Ebay - it finished during half term I think so I wasn't about to do a last minute snipe! Another lost opportunity (maybe - as my bought unseen from dealers experiance hasn't been good), but they'll come up again.
I think you and JohnR thought it was a £1000 bike at most but as you say looking at those recent sellers and their condition £1400 didn't seem that bad. Though I can't see how they value that other one at the same price though unless the one that sold had issues that were not described.
So still looking at riding the 400 to EK8.
