I think it is something wrong with ebay UK. Aparently there is only about 100 raleigh bicycles and one dawes for sale too. Either it is ebay or definetly a run on bikes

It may well be exactly that, Andy. Checking from across the water this way, I see two Sherpas (both red) and a Commutour. My usual search string there is "Thorn bike" (no quotes).

Sometimes I get a hiccup in my eBay search results when I go overseas from the States (eBay France, Germany, and Italy), so perhaps something similar is happening for you?

Keeping my eyes open for something suitable for you. Have you contacted Andy/SJS Cycles to see if there's anything at the shop that hasn't appeared in their online listings yet? It might be if you left your name and size/interest on file, they could let you know if something becomes available. Might be worth checking.

All the best,

Dan.

Problem solved. The searches work fine if I am signed in but not if a I am not. It probably does not help that I am looking at ebay from Bulgaria bouncing of a satalite and back to earth in Italy
