China motorcycle from the Internet
125 for 999 euros
This is how the term S.translate hineray freely. And that’s the name of the latest addition to the Chongquing editorial fleet. How the selection of this exotic model came about requires an explanation. Unfortunately, we bikers are like most people in this country: The salary does not rise to the same extent as the prices. Motorcycles too ?? whether from Europe, the USA or Japan? have gotten quite expensive in recent years. You could look around for alternatives. About used ?? or cheap motorcycles that are offered on the Internet at low prices. Admittedly, no big machines (yet), but at least 125cc with homologation papers. So maybe just the right thing to start with or as a birthday present for the 16-year-old offspring. MOTORRAD wanted to take a closer look at whether such an inexpensive machine was really worth it. And the choice fell on the Shineray offered on Ebay.
Your engine is supposedly a licensed replica of a Honda unit. A starting price of 999 euros is a word for a full-fledged, street-legal 125cc enduro with a four-stroke engine, a comparable machine from Japan costs roughly three times as much. First of all, however, you have a few questions, because the information on the Ebay site is very poor. Therefore, the editors took ?? naturally incognito by means of a straw man ?? contact the provider by e-mail. This sits in Hamburg and delights the population along with various motorized single-track vehicles with Tiffany lamps and extremely tasteful bronze figures. Everything made in China, of course. Unfortunately, the answer to our agent’s request came after ?? by the way, lawless? The auction ended so that the story seemed to be over before it even started.
But a few days later the same model appeared again in the dealer’s portfolio, this time for a bargain starting price of one euro. The auction ended on a Sunday evening in the middle of the crime scene »Highnoon«. Of all things! As an old Ebay fox, it was clear to the straw man that only the last few minutes are of interest at auctions, and so he dialed into the network shortly before the end to place his bid. Unfortunately, via a modem that is no longer entirely up-to-date, which experience has shown is not a good basis for a successful purchase at the last second. DSL users are faster and therefore have an advantage. So put in a few more notes in time, sent off and wait? In fact, 23 seconds before the auction ends, we are the highest bidders. Subsequent analysis of the commandments showed that it ?? as usual ?? Seconds before the expiry, another interested party made a counter attempt.
The hammer price was 511 euros, almost half that of the first one
Auction set price saved. Answering customer correspondence promptly would have brought the seller real money. The rest of the process ran smoothly: A few days after the auction ended, a forwarding company delivered a box that was quite small for the expected content to our straw man. What was in it? That’s in the next episode of “Billich? I want to!”
