Ikea folding bikes on ebay £50-£80

Ikea gave all 9000 of their uk staff free Raleigh folding bikes for christmas- I was actually after a folding bike a while back but they were all well over £100 even for rubbish examples.
I guess IKEA staff that dont want to cycle are selling their bikes but because of the glut of bikes out there, prices are low- I got one for £60 but have seen them as low as £50. And these are all BRAND new, not rubbish 2nd hand!
I think they are the same as one in argos which is £129 - I think its the raleigh eclipse.
Anyway - I reckon they are a bargain at the moment if anyone wants one. Do a search for IKEA BIKE
Its enabled me to lift share with my wife the 12 miles to her work- we can then leave the car at her work, I get the fold up bike out the boot and cycle the remaining 2 miles to my place of work! which is much faster than sitting in traffic for those 2 miles!!!
