Raleigh Triathlon as ridden by Nobby Stiles

[LondonClassic]

Not the actual bike, but a smaller one that was made in the same factory.

What utter bollox

Jeez - he's optimistic - that's the 5th time he's listed it at that price.

How do you report this kind of thing to eBay, because this is definitely at the very least a misleading listing (not that they are going to sell it for £999, but just on principle)?

Looks like he is cross chaining too.

And not wearing a helmet

 

[Carge]

He's been a bit smart on the wording
"As seen" - sold as seen
"Harry Styles" - he doesn't specifically say it was owned or ridden by aforementioned ballad warbler - but there's enough to suck in an unwitting fan perhaps.

Ebay worry about such things about as much as a dog worries about the colour of a lamp post.

Yeah, you're right, but I've reported it anyway. These sort of chancers really get my goat, though not because they obviously have a very low opinion of the intelligence of your average Harry Styles superfan

Never heard any of his stuff and couldn't give a crap

I got excited there for a split second. Nobby Stiles was a cyclist?
