The exchange so far is reproduced below and I look forward to the creative suggestions of our community as to how we can sting this arsehole.
Hello,
Apologies for not replying earlier. The price I'm asking is $5,500.
I want to tell you that I can ship the bike to your address without any problems . The bike is in good condition, you can do a full inspection when will receive it and see it has absolutely no problem at all. I have all the papers ready for sale . This deal is going to be closed through an shipping company. In this way I will know for sure that I will not lose my time for nothing, I’ll know that you are a trusted buyer. You must complete the payment directly to the shipping company ( they will hold the money until you received and tested the bike ) you will not send the money to me . I will send the bike to your address through the shipping company , and the shipping company will bring the bike at your address.
I will also give you 7 days to inspect the bike and the documents ( in this time you can cancel the transaction if you will not like the bike ). The shipping company will check the bike, also the shipping company will check documents of the bike before they will start the transaction to see that everything is OK with them. So if you have the money and if you’re ready for this purchase, I need to know your full name, your postal address and your telephone number - as soon as I have received them I will get a shipping quote for you.
Thanks and Regards
