MHillyard Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 Seems a bit excessively priced. 1944 as opposed to the usual '45 date but the condition is nothing special. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/RARE-BSA-FOLDING-PARATROOPER-COMMANDO-BIKE-BICYCLE-UNIVERSAL-CARRIER-DATED-1944-/360833733140?pt=UK_Collectables_Militaria_LE&hash=item54035dd214 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

garys39 Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 Now at £970, I think the bidders are presuming the bike is included in the sale ? Regards Gary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcspool Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 Now at £970, I think the bidders are presuming the bike is included in the sale ? Zero bids and then: "This listing was ended by the seller because the item is no longer available". Smells fishy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrian Barrell Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 Hanno, it was at £970 with about 12 bids earlier....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regards Gary Thats what I thought must have happened at first. But he does make it very clear in the description. At least 2 people must have though that for it to get that high!

Indeed a high price. Didn't know they were dated on the metal parts, I'll have to check mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
