I presume if you don't use gift that you are covered the same as buying in the UK? Any advice appreciated 🙂
Pinkbike by any chance?........
Ha ha could be but ive sold to everywhere in eastern Europe I just haven't bought before and it's not a small amount of money (to me anyway).
Bought some stuff off ebay from Latvia with no issue.
This is private not through eBay. Their website doesn't make it that clear to be honest.
Through ebay I would. Through pinkbike... Not a chance.
Plus dont alot of stolen bikes etc end up in eastern Europe?
Does the vendor have a decent track record? There's a guy in the Czech Republic that sells CDIs for motorbikes and everyone on the motorcycle forums knows him for example.
Is actually from here. First time poster etc but I thought of you paid non gift you were covered but I just wanted other opinions before I did it.
Last month I sat on a plane next to a Serb guy who saw my bike mag and started talking about his mate who sells bikes stolen in Europe.
Just sayin', like.

POSTED 23
Yup. Nick it in Germany; sell to the UK. Nick it in the UK; sell to Germany. etc etc...
I don't think it's stolen as he has the receipt etc. I'm just worried if it doesn't match the description will pp cover me? The guy seems well educated and polite so I don't think any foul play is happening.
A. Not all thieves are m8
B. Oops couldnt find receipt when boxing up..will post it when I find it
No I guess not. I will go for it but I will double check with PayPal on the phone.
He could always Email you a pic of the receipt first. A quick google of the shop it's from would allay your fears/arouse your suspicions.
yes i will ask him that . cheers good idea.
I spend a bit of time around Eastern Europe. I live in Vienna part of the year which is virtually Eastern Europe. Czech is 1 hour. Slovakia is 1 hour. Poland is not soo far. Slovenia is 3 hours. Croatia then is again not so far.
In all the time I've driven around I have never had the thought that Eastern Europeans just want to steal.
Serbian guy had a mate who sells stolen bikes? Manchester guy has friends who sell stollen bikes too.
I'm going for it Iolo. It's a frame I've always wanted.
Just want to steal?
Who said that. Make sure the pp address is verified and delivery to your reg address
Is it a Spesh S Works by any chance?
No the ibis mojo. Black naked carbon one.
