when the money was recieved all communication stopped.
the guy had a 253 positive feedback so I had no reason to distrust him.
A couple of weeks later, its listed again on ebay under a different seller with the same e-mail address, so I hit "buy now" 'cause I already own the bike, again, no communication.
Then last week, its listed again on ebay, talk about balls.
This is probably a waste of time but I'll put it out to you guys anyway, 'cause I cant afford to write off $9,500.00.
The first guy that I paid,
Joe Williams
13133 Palm PL.
Cerritos CA.
# 2
Amanda Corona
4740 E. 7th ST
Long Beach CA.
The bank transfer went to,
Maria Williams
Wescom Credit Union
Pasadena CA.
They all have the same email address.
Just a warning. As for the three named above, there are some bikers going to go talk to them. Yeah, two-letter bikers!

Don't ever send that much money to someone.
You need to use an escrow service.
They hold your money and they don't give it to the seller until you have
received the merchandise. If the seller doesn't want to use an escrow service then they are probably scamming.
