Get in touch with them and ask them about it if you're interested then decide for yourself.

As there are actually bids on it now theoretically it should no longer be available for BIN.

I have been watching seeing this for a few months now.

I would not go anywhere near them!

StoreUkLtd. operate under several seller names...

Examples here, same bike same description, different sellers...:

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2013-Cannondale-Scalpel-29er-1-with-upgrades-carbon-wheelset-Enve-handlebars-/290913458705?pt=UK_Bikes_GL&hash=item43bbcb1a11

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2013-Cannondale-Scalpel-29er-1-with-upgrades-carbon-wheelset-Enve-handlebars-/300903103618?pt=UK_Bikes_GL&hash=item460f38fc82

They have has many listings like this; SuperSix Evo, 6.9SSL, Scalpel 1, Santa Cruz, this Wilier. The listing are up for a couple of weeks, then go and then are relisted.

I don't know their game, but it sure as hell a'int legit...

Look at their other items for sale, nothing to do with bikes, either watches, textiles or some other sh!t!

Stay safe!

you guys are obviously not used to seeing scam ads on the bay.

it's a dead give away when seller asks you to contact them directly in the body of the ad, and bypass any contact through ebay.

they have hijacked a legit vendors site.
There's sometimes a buggy.
How many drivers does a buggy have?

One.

So let's just say I'm drivin' this buggy...
and if you fix your attitude you can ride along with me.
