Why does it say "Do to ebay regulations status of frame cannot be disclosed." ?

Also, way to use the wrong "due" jackass [laugh]

I actually called the same place just yesterday about an air filter and the guy Phil sounded like a total dumbass.
I wouldn't suggest buying anything from there.

Let's say it is.  Everyone else can say they're selling a salvage bike in the listing.  Never heard of a rule stating you can't disclose the status of the VIN/title.

Too weird.  Me thinks those guys can suck it.

Ebay has some stupid rules regarding the sale of stripped motorcycle frames.

If you sell a frame that has a title, then you HAVE to list it in Ebay Motors as a vehicle -- which costs more!

the guy has 10,000 + sales and almost 98% rating.  He's not a fool.

Hmmm... So let me get this straight, This guy is selling a 749 frame, engine, clocks, harness, ecu, clutch and pressure plate for 10 bucks with no reserve?

Something fishy going on here me thinks...

Apparently, if you buy the frame and engine, they throw in a drill press, a microwave, a second motorcycle that I can't quite make out, two shop monkeys (one wearing a muscle shirt, and, disturbingly, one wearing a rubber glove), and a curious shop customer.  Hard to beat that, for $10 and $301 shipping.
