    Hi guys I have noticed while searching eBay there is a genuine alarm for a 2008 blade apparently it can be fitted in less than 5 mins and just plugs into existing loom
    It has one day remaining and only at 99p!!!!
    No bids as yet.
    The description is a bit naff and doesn't even say what year it's from I only have the info from asking questions.
    Could be a real bargain for some one so thought I would post here

    For £5.50 so would I and I am not a fan off alarms on bikes. £5.50 and 10% off your insurance its a no brainer. Are they really that easy to fit ?

    Well done Chelseaboy, for a fiver its not worth sending back if it doesn’t, good luck and a real bargain had. I would be interested to hear if it is just a simple plug and play fitting.

    I'd asked the selling what year it fitted otherwise I wasn't gonna bid. So he replied "don't bid then". This morning i had a message from him saying he had dropped the alarm and wasn't sure if it worked anymore think he mistook me for you. Did he message you as well? Sounds to me as if he was trying to cancel the sale as he was expecting a lot more for it!

    No not me I didn't see it until after you won it. If I was in your racing boots I would demand he sends, sounds to me like he is not happy with the price and wants to wriggle out of the deal. If he won't send give him bad feed back and ebay involved. Hope this helps

    You would think that if it's so easy to fit it would be easy for a thief to remove too.

    alarm

    well fellow firebladers nearly a week on and alarm not turned up, emailed him half a dozen times and no reply, reakon he is going to mug me off, what a wan**r, kind of expected this to be honest, as he is not even replying to me to make an excuse guess it will be bad feedback for him

    Make sure you report him to eBay too mate, it pisses me off when people do this!
    He will get a black mark etc and will piss him off which is the best bit.
    Keep an eye on his sale items to see if it's re listed any time soon!
