More than likely. Implausible auction, bad grammar, no actual pics, no feedback, new seller, doesn't accept cash, no proper description. I didn't know Parcel Force delivered bikes either!

Well he has 3 of them for sale (all yellow) and one is at £4,600.

Very odd.

I would ask for a viewing if I were interested in buying one. But alas I'm not as a) I don't have the money and b) Ducati haven't made a good looking bike since the 916.

But how's he going to get any money out of anyone without delivering the goods? Anyone really going to send payment without a method of recourse (e.g. other than credit card) and just wait for him to deliver?

Plus listing on ebay can be quite rigid at times maybe he just clicked on parcelforce as they don't actually list his courier company. Also do ebay list cash as an available method of payment?

Hard maybe for you to believe that people do this sort of thing, but they do.
