Recovery Description

I located the bike on ebay thanks to this site. i set up a fake account and won the bid. cheeky thief was selling it for £500, £100 more than i paid for it! i informed the police (although i suspect they are often unavailable as the resourcing crisis means they have to deal with priority crimes). seller was local so i went around and 'collected' myself without a problem. needs some TLC as kept out in the yard for 3 months, but otherwise un-scathed. police have taken an updated statement so are going to pay the thief a visit shortly.
