The Harrier has been pulled from ebay - because it consititues a weapons delivery system - the owner has been quoted as saying it couldn't deliver a pizza :))

Still I would think for anyone interested it will be sold privately now which will save him ebay sellers fees, so perhaps not all bad!!

LOL!! Thats crazy when you can buy a Samurai Sword on eBay.

I wonder who the lucky winner will be and where it will end up! I'd personally like to have it, would make an excellent water feature :D

After the Blackpool Vulcan was sold the owner at the time of 594 at Newark advertised his on ebay and that was pulled - seems to be total inconsistency

There was a Sea Harrier that sold on eBay about a year or two ago, that didn't get pulled.

Surely on this principle ALL mode of transport must also be pulled as potentially they are all weapons delivery systems.......

They started it and I'm happy to continue this stupidity.
