The problem is, there were only 3 bidders on ebay for this, when it should sell like hotcakes. The highest bidder of 2600 retracted bid and the seller lowered his reserve price to meet my bid. Something fishy here that I am not feeling too comfortable of.

The bike is also located some 13 hours away from me. I don't want to go down there to find out that the bike is not worth it.

Any opinion is welcomed.

That price doesn't really seem that low to me.


Zero feedback.

At this season, F2 can go as much as 3,000.

And, it's just weird that only 3 bids were on this bike when other F2 have at least 10+

Sometimes you get a great deal from someone with zero feedback. That's how I ended up with my F3, for $2800, which was good for the time. I was the only one who placed a bid.

Yessss be extremely careful of the zero feedback sellers.

I mean from the ONE picture it looks okay, and I mean it sounds cool, but the explanation of it is so vague I don't know man.

best of luck.

2 concerns:

First, there is only one pic. This is a concern b/c it can be misleading and it's easy to get one picture of a bike that you do not own to post up.

2nd, the bike looks like a racebike.

I dunno if its a racebike but its most likely been crashed, fixed, and repainted.

U never know the circumstances, some people like to play on there.

There's a car that I was interested in and it had already been "sold" to high bidder two weeks ago. Now it's relisted and they are bidding on their car with another account. There's no mention of it being relisted, that's funny.
