That is the business!! I could definitely see myself riding that. They seem to be selling for a fair few quid though, this one is up to £510 with seven hours still to go.

How much would you expect to pay for these? I payed £499+65 delivery from Woodchip on ebay, where else can you buy them (on the net i mean)

How much could you get in the autotrader for these scooters?

For my brand new Taishan Commuter I paid £371 plus £100 delivery.
If I was to flog it I wouldn't put it on ebay as nobody would pay more than £250, why would you when you could have a brand new one for £400?
Your local advertising newspaper would be the best bet, a pretty new scooter could go for more than you paid for it. ;D

so you could maybe do a deal on buying a few at maybe £380 and selling them for £450 or more in the local paper

It's possible but if you buy from ebay you have to add £100 per bike for delivery so in total if you shell out £500 you'd have to sell the scooter locally for £600 for it to be worth it and I'm not 100% convinced that anyone could sell one for £600.

I've still not seen another Baotian or Taishan around here yet. Seen a few Sym bikes which are similar as a local dealer sells them. £999 upwards #sprint#
