I made a offer based on him having no knowledge of the bike and condition but it went straight over his head no surprise there and still no response fome ebay.

Its the current owner. He has set the reserve even higher than the £1.20.
To be fair, it looks a nice bike, just not accurately described or would that be, not honestly described. Maybe its invisible wiring to the dynamo and its just the ammeter that has just started not working!

Not me either - I am not interested in buying it but am interested to see what happens - I see the bid has gone up to £1501 - I bet it won't reach the reserve of £3,800 - if it does I hope they can push it home ok
