vfr400 nc30 for sale on ebay (beware)

Post by isca1987 »

There is a black and red nc30 on ebay for £2500 looks really good in the pictures but after paying a deposit and paying to rent a van and over 160 mile trip the bike is a big let down, I would value it around £1500.
I'm not one to bitch but after losing well over £100. I am just warning others not to waste there time or money.
But this is only my opinion.

Link to the auction would be good, as well as some specific details about why you were disappointed.

I was told it was in show room condition and was kept inside as part of a private collection. And in the photo this looks the case but as soon as I looked at the bike you could tell it had been used in all weathers and to be honest was just your average nc30 which I would only pay around £1500 for. Unless it was a uk model. I'm not trying to slag the bike off but I wasted over £100 because the bloke wants deal price's and wasn't honest about the condition, And in the photo's it really looks mint so i can see other people travelling a long way for it as £2500 is a good deal for a mint nc30.
Or i could be way out on what nc30's are worth now?

Was it the one with photos of the original manual and toolkit?

As before, put a link to the bike so people dont confuse what might be a good bike for the same price

After a few wasted trips I always ask for close up pictures before going to look at bikes and in this case some normal un-edited pics!
