well if it is i can't find it
wasn't a bad price really ... looked pretty straight if the seller's description was genuine, someone had a decent buy " I have owned this for many years and it has always been a great piece of kit and I can ensure the buyer won’t be disappointed!
Has never had a hard life has only ever been used round the yard and for rollling the potholes on the lane etc.

I was bidding on a dumper a few weeks ago sellers mate bid in small increments until he became the winning bidder then retracts his last bid to ensure the seller got maximum price
I’m not really sure that is quite in the spirit of things either.

agree, but if you get it within your limit ..... at least you get what you want ... have had it done to me with a 'second chance offer' ... don't know whether that still operates or not ... would have to have a good reason to retract a bid like that though ... not easy to get fleabay to retract one, especially a winning bidI was bidding on a dumper a few weeks ago sellers mate bid in small increments until he became the winning bidder then retracts his last bid to ensure the seller got maximum price

I do tend to agree. If I feel I have been pushed up by a non genuine bidder I will have that conversation with the seller and tell them to relist it. Being bid up over the reserve is what I consider to be a little naughty.I was bidding on a dumper a few weeks ago sellers mate bid in small increments until he became the winning bidder then retracts his last bid to ensure the seller got maximum price

Paid somewhere in the middle of that for mine. Did a bit of digging on the web and found the auction listing and what the seller paid for them so could verify they weren’t stolen.

Not had a go at lifting it with the E10 yet

This one was 2k , a lot more than I wanted to pay, but it’s a long term investment and they never come up in this condition!

It's better value than paying 3k less than new price for a 5 year old 1.5 tonner and in that condition as good as a new one anyhow. Short of not putting oil in the engine the only thing you can abuse on them is the belt and thats only a 2min job to swap (I always keep one on the shelf just in case)

Goes without saying,but I'll say it anyway,these are Caravan Utilizing Nomadic Traveller magnets,had one pinched, admittedly from badlands of Birtley,wasn't in that day so bloke on machine had gently put 360 arm against reversable Wacker in 6t dumper skip,instead of ramming arm down on it,came in next morning,dumper tyres let down,long bit of wood been used to lever 360 arm up....Wacker gone,lifted out of skip, doesn't matter how heavy they are...
