Open up the listing then go right to the very bottom of the page - there's a link for reporting the listing there.

Ok - are we reporting...??

I feel kinda cheated that he's not going to have to cough up final value fees on £104k though....

I think it should be reported (and probably best done by you as the listing was a copy of yours) ... I lost count of the bidders, not sure who's the current winner (#10) ... wouldn't want them getting any shit off the guy/bad feedback.

it would be best done by Greg as its his listing that was copied.

=D>

Got the email from eBay earlier - nice to see they removed the listing so quick and were courteous enough to tell all the bidders.

At the end of the day we've stopped any genuine biker getting stung this time - maybe we should keep our eyes open for more .... vigilante eBayers :wav:
