Warning bronze head on eBay .

Listed today on eBay 20/1/2016 I am very suspicious of this listing as I'm sure it's the same pictures and wording as the bronze head that sold for £3200 some time ago .
If you google " triumph bronze cylinder head " and click images the same pictures come up from a very old eBay listing . You have been warned .

Buying on eBay and using PayPal in theory should be safe even if it's as I suspect a scam ( you would need to read eBay excluded items for refund small print first ) but it asks for bank transfer .
DO NOT SEND MONEY FOR THIS ITEM WITHOUT SEEING IT FIRST .
It's better than the average scam as it says buyer can collect etc and it's not 0 feedback item in north Scotland etc .
But I suspect if you were the winning bidder they will try to persuade you to bank transfer as they are on holiday ,too busy etc for collection .

I asked twice to go and see this head with no reply , I have tried to bid but he has blocked my bid , I think he may only let over seas bidders bid and think he is up to no good ,

For some reason you do not add why you think the ad is fraudulent

I have also reported it but as you say you cannot describe fully the problem with the listing .
