Default some people :mad:

Well were selling Kims Sport KA as she doesnt really use it and only needs a cheap run about.

Yesterday she phones a bloke up from Essex who had just put an advert on the autotrader that day. She stresses to him that she definatly wants it and would come down tonight. She were about to leave (to buy the car!) and she phones him to double check the address as it's a good hours drive from us.

the 2 faced git has sold it this afternoon! not a call or anything we would of driven all that way for nothing.

why are some people complete W*****s

Rant over

It's annoying mate.

When I was hunting out my Fiesta I spoke to a guy in Wales who wanted Ł3.5k for his minter of an FRST. We spent ages on the phone and I pointed out that I knew exactly what I would be looking at and I wouldn't be happy if it was'nt as mint as it was made out. The car turned out to be a complete snotter, minter my fucking arse, Ł600 as a stripper

Too many arseholes out there

I've had enough time wasting potential buyers who 'definately want it' to know that the first person to wave cash at me leaves with the car.

Without a deposit I'd have done the same tbh

Go one better, take a picture of his front door and send it in the post to him with a little note saying "dont mess people around when selling goods, you never know who's watching you or who you will piss off"

your choice mate, i'm selling a car right now but wouldnt do that to someone. how am i supposed to get a deposit to him without seeing the car and he only put it on yesterday! i was going tonight to buy it if it was as advertised (and i'm not exaclty picky its a run around and we said we'd pay full asking price as we really wanted it)

guess it depends on what type of person you are! and i will keep people buying my car informed and let them view it in the order they contact me....maybe i'm too fair, but i treat people how I wish to be treated!

Thats very true ...

... but seen as though you can only sell it once and money buys/takes the car, what would you do if you were selling or have sold a car/cars before? You take the money, simple as!

If you really want to piss him off, then advertise the same car for him at about Ł2k cheaper

again you do things differently to me, lets say i have 10 calls for my cossie to view, i let them view in the order of the calls. if they can't make till the weekend then i let them know other people will be looking.

we were the first people to call him and kim made it clear she was leaving work early today so we could buy it.

remind me not to buy a car off you then

to answer that no! i wouldnt have been in that situation. if you had someone viewing your car the day after you put it on the trader that was taking time off work and wanted the car 100%, and someone then phones up ...i'd make them come the day after, if it was not sold then they would have the chance to buy.

we phoned first and could not get down there any quicker! this other buyer only contatced him this afternoon! the least he could of done was phone us to let us know, Kim had to take time off work. what part don't you get?
