Well i think the Norton 916 on ebay is a first New Norton scam....Limited edition £6300!
The seller as ZERO feedback...carn't see me breaking a leg to contact him/her.

Over here in the UK . there is a growing industrie "providing info" this guy advertising a cheap 916 is "UP" to no good. No one list's up a New Commando for £6300 .
To contact the seller your name and phone number are sent, it's just another scam! "he" might get 1000 suckers sending their personal info, he then sells it on for a few sents each, presto hes made some Cash,

Yes as John intimates, basically if you informed the police they would do nothing. I was buying a caravan a few years ago and smelled a rat. i called the police to ask whether they could identify if it was stolen. In that usual UK style non-helpful manner i was advised they couldn't help but if i bought it and it was stolen then then may take it off me...
