Actually the price on their website is $3,700 and it states free shipping to any of the lower 48 states.
I emailed them and got this response;


The ad says "buyer responsible for pick up and shipping". For some reason it said seller on the "shipping" tab but on the main page of the ad it did state "buyer responsible". It has been corrected and states on both pages that "buyer is responsible". There is a "quote" button you can click to get a quote for shipping. I appologize for the confusion.

Soooooooo, I emailed her back and said I was not referring to the Ebay ad. I was referring to the same bike for sale on their website where it says free shipping. I also asked why bike is in Maine when their warehouse is in ID. Waiting for an answer.


The response I got to that was;

Hello,
Thanks for your interest in our item. For a quick answer please send your messages/questions to sales@motorseu.com. They will be able to answer any questions for you.


I am giving up as I still would not take a chance on buying from them.
They also have no feedback on Eaby.

Looking over their web site, they seem legit and very reasonable. Prices on site includes free shipping. Only thing I don't like is the way you have to pay. Bank transfer. Why not a CC for fraud protection reasons?

I don't know what it is Lar, I just have a feeling there is something not right about this.

...and another thing - I'll never buy new off the showroom floor again - there's too many low mileage bikes out there for good prices!

Some of the bike prices seem to be close to where they should be. But the ones that are a
couple thousand under, have me wondering. Even if you could sell for that low price, why
would you and why advertise it?

I emailed them yesterday and asked them to phone me, they responded by saying that they ONLY communicate by email. I like to talk to people when I'm thinking of making a large purchase.

Not to mention they also say they will ship free. That could be another $700 out of their pocket. That is what it cost me to get my Drifter shipped from California.

Yeah when you stated earlier you were going to call them I noticed they had no phone number on their website.
They, as someone else noted, only accept Bank Transfers. I have heard that is never a way to go. No protection in the event of fraud.

If I was sure they were a legit outfit I'd do a bank transfer. Unless someone checked it out, or knows of them I would be hesitant.

We have people in Nebraska. I might even take a ride to see it if you asked nicely.

You should see the BS I have encountered when selling shit on Craigslist. It's like the Nigerians thought I was wearing a sign that said sucker. "I want to buy it for my son, but I am at sea on a oil rig..." KMFA.

What the hell are you talkin about.
The Nomad is in Bangor Maine and their warehouse is in Idaho.
Both are a considerable distance from you.

The post said nomad in NE, NE is short for nebraska. I suppose it could be north east...I'd go to Maine for the right price. We have people in Maine and Idaho. Send Radco to look at the bike and Idaho to check out what the warehouse is about.

NE=New England

It would be cool if Bud could check them out.
