The man is a dummy, or he is looking for a dummy.  I would certainly put a bit of elbow grease on it.

Its amazing that the good one doesn't sell, but the 'heap of the week' sells for £800. I always remember a stamp dealer many moons ago telling me that people buy rubbish.

I think a deal must have been made off eBay because I've been watching that bike and it had five days still to go this morning.
