OK, I am the guy that won the bid on this Norton. Was buying it as a parts bike for the race season next year.
But, alarm bells rang
Contacted the buyer through the eBay messaging system. He contacts me back via the eBay messaging system. I gave him my phone number and ask him to call me.
The bike is listed as being in Philadelphia. He give me wiring information for a US bank, so everything is good so far.
When he calls, the caller ID lists the phone number as coming from Oregon (bell 1). He tells me on the phone that has some issues (pregnant wife, ect) and that is why he is selling the bike. I ask him what dealership he purchased the bike from, and he can't remember (bell 2) According to his messages, his name is Lance, but his accent is foreign, and does not sound like he is from anywhere that would name a person Lance (bell 3) He is also willing to pay for shipping, even after taking a beating on a new bike (bell 4)
Bell 5, came in an email from eBay. Warning that the sellers account had been accessed by a third party (got this warning 3 times from eBay via email.
So, it may be real, but enough BS that I am not wiring money to anyone. Thought about getting a friend from North Jersey to go check it out, but decided I would just drop the issue.
