Title: An eBay M.F. leck1

!!!*&%_&Q#J*';$(*&!!!!!   :banghead:

You don't want to know what I just said!

I just clicked the Buy It Now on an '83 GS1100GL, went through the whole process to make his required $200 deposit and clicked Done and PayPal came back and said Transaction Cancelled!!!!!!!

My $200 is gone and the sumnabeach has changed the ad by removing the Buy It Now option. M.F.

And, of course, he ain't answerin' my messages!

It looks like the guy has 70+ sales with a good rating.  I would contact ebay so see what they say.  They should have a record of your transaction and you should have a receipt with the transaction #.  If no go, do this;  how far away do you live from his city?  Use a different email and say you would like to inspect the bike before bidding.  You can deal with him in person then.

I just wrote eBay...and you can bet Grannie's linen that I'll be going to see him in person if I don't get an explanation that suits me today!  Yep, the M.F. lives relatively close by.

Couldn't find a 900 Eliminator, huh?
Or a GS1150 standard?  :stickpoke:

Sucks about the $200, but I have a feeling you'll get it back without resorting to  :gatlin

It wasn't my dream bike, but I do like the shaftie "L" models, especially the big ones.  The buy it now price was $1,075.  Sounded like it would be worth a little renovating and upgrading.

It freakin' figures, man, 'cause a decent GS rarely shows up down here.  Up north constantly, but rarely here.  No shipping!  I'm p!ssed!

Des:  very same thing happened to me a couple of times and pay-pal came through with a refund within 24 hours.  that's what they're there for - i think you are protected - but maybe next time you should wear a condom! :motorsmile:
