MHillyard Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 This just listed. Seems suspiciously cheap from a new account. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Mk-I-Welbike-british-army-paratroopers-WWII-Owned-by-DuPont-of-Indian-Motocycle-/251565392808?&_trksid=p2056016.l4276 Plus it sold a while back for £5,444, same photos and description http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Mk-I-Welbike-british-army-paratroopers-WWII-Owned-by-DuPont-of-Indian-Motocycle-/221433487942?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEWAX%3AIT&_trksid=p2047675.l2557&nma=true&si=fsHL8FlEDy%252FLqHq6OlgyPVtvXyg%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc I might be wrong but seemed a little suspicious Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Johns Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 Yes, yet another scam, has been reported to Ebay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Degsy Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 Same scammer has advertised a jeep as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enigma Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 He's listed a lot of motorbikes, tractors and more. A bit elaborate for a scam maybe? Still, making a appointment to see it before bidding may flush out a scammer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike30841 Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 This lowlife keeps springing up on Ebay under different user names, but always listing pretty much the same vehicles. I am sick of reporting them, and Ebay get slower and slower to remove the listings. Mike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
79x100 Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 This lowlife keeps springing up on Ebay under different user names, but always listing pretty much the same vehicles. I am sick of reporting them, and Ebay get slower and slower to remove the listings. Mike. Well Said Mike. Me too. The trouble is that if he's in a third world country and one in a hundred pay him a £100 holding deposit then he's making a good living.

welbike Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 Does anyone know who the real (current) owner of the Welbike is?? if the number on the tanks is right, this is the earliest recorded MK1 in my database, but it really is impossible, as this dates it before the first contract, and it is no prototype, strange!!

Richard Farrant Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 Does anyone know who the real (current) owner of the Welbike is?? if the number on the tanks is right, this is the earliest recorded MK1 in my database, but it really is impossible, as this dates it before the first contract, and it is no prototype, strange!! Lex, That census number was allocated to a laundry trailer ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LarryH57 Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 What about the Jeep also listed? The Registration must be known to someone in the hobby? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/WILLYS-JEEP-1944-WW2-Jeep-/251565393900?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item3a927747ec The location may be known to someone too?
