was looking at a cheap motorcycle on ebay that was in virginia (i live in maryland) with a BIN of $350!!!:Q I was gonna check it out w/ my brother about buying it (parents dont want me to get one at all till im out of college). But $350? I can afford that IMO. Between 1am and this morning someone bought it 🙁

that's the thing with ebay. a lot of times, these "great deals" come up, but you may have some reservations about it. before you get your question in and answered, someone else has already snagged it. then again... a lot of times (esp in ebay motors) ppl end up being deadbeat bidders, so u might just see it back up in a week or two. it's worth a shot to email the seller and tell him that u'd be interested should the initial buyer not come through.

I'm glad you posted Cliff's because I wouldn't be able to finish the original topic otherwise.

how does this sound for letting the seller know my interest if things don't work?

"(Seller's Name)
I saw your auction for the 1973 CB450 and thought I'd let you know I'd be interested if the winning bidder does not follow through for whatever reason.
Thanks,
