urgent advice/help re private sale of bike

[sinto607276]

Does anyone know how much it would cost for a courier to collect a motorcycle & deliver it 250 miles away? How does this cost compare with van hire + fuel? Unless there is a significant saving then this would make me suspicious. Also, have you checked the buyer's ebay feedback?

Motorcycle transport is relatively cheap, it's a lot less than hiring a van, fuel etc
I looked into it to get a bike from down south and by time I worked out costs to go and collect it, I was way more cheaper to get it collected, deal fell through but learned it was cheaper ☺
