Well after a definite sale the Pratt changed his mind and pulled out, said his mrs didn’t want him to buy a bike 🥺
Anyhoo it’s back on and has fresh bids

I think you should add relisted due to time waster or something like that , simply because it looks like it didn't meet its reserve and those who bid before may not try again as it may well be above their ceiling ...where it was in honesty close ;)

Imo ...your lead photo which is now back to the one in between the bins isn't the "kerb appeal"one :ugeek:

not sure why theres 2 pics of the headlight... just mention the upgraded light in the description and add two more detail pics of the scoot. id change the 1st pic to what is currently the 4th tbh as its much nicer. the pics are also quite dark so maybe lighten them a lil... ebay can do this to the pics as you list. think about removing the seat strap too as it doesnt match, nor was it on local bikes... mention it in the advert to say its available but not installed. i find it odd to rotate my head to ook at pics.... take them straight on or rotate at time of listing...

just my thoughts so pinch of salt likely required :)

To be honest the pics are crap because they where taken with my Kindle as my phone was fooked
The relisted ad has new pics taken with my new phone. The headlight mod pics where shown to show the headlight fitted and the cradle freshly cleaned up and painted (surely a selling point lol)
The seat strap is fitted because the bike had a new seat when I bought the bike and had press studs which annoyed the hell out of me, my OCD kicked in and as I wasn’t prepared to pay silly money for an oem strap I made my own (I like it anyway lol)
Judging by some of the bidder questions I don’t think most of them even know what a Kat is anyway :roll:
As it is I’m sick of being mucked about with bidders removing winning bids and asking do I want to swap with granny’s stamp collection, if it doesn’t sell by auction end tomorrow I’ll be keeping her.
