View Full Version : Scream on eBay for cheap. Too cheap?

I was just checking eBay and noticed this Banshee Scream for sale. There is no reserve and only one bid. The auction ends tomorrow and the price is only $730 USD. That's under $1000 CDN! That seems way too cheap for a 2003 Scream fully built. It has older Boxxers but still...

Anyway, have a look.

Either someone recognizes their stolen bike and calls the cops or it's totally legit and someone gets a good deal on a Scream. The seller has no track record on eBay.

"bike mechanic owned" "ride trail too much to use"

could be valid reasons?

i sold my DMR Rhythm really cheap because our dirt jumps got knocked down all the time, sold it cheap to get a Specialized XC bike for riding winter and going to work

i have friends in trade who pay silly small amounts of money for complete builds by sourcing parts off all their contacts, get bored sell it for 1/2 or 1/3rd retail price few months later...

If this is legit, it's a really good deal.
Only two hours left!
Right now, it is at $760 USD.

I wonder what it will end at...

the auction ended, $1003.04 cdn
a pretty good deal no matter how you cut it,

I just hope they don't have problems at the border, or they're american to begin with,

I would just turn it around for the parts, $$$
