as much as its a cunts way if it was me i couldnt afford to take a 4K hit so i would have had to take the best offer.
i suppose it all comes down to how much you need the money.

yes hand up Iam the wrong one here I sold a car over the phone(no money changed hands)I then get an offer 1k over what I agreed with Paul and I turn it down. two days later I get another offer(from another person)for 1.5k over and I turn it down.Remember these are offers and Ive not seen cash so I stick to what Paul had agreed.While this is going on Iam being told that the car is worth more than what Iam lettin it off for.Anyway yesterday Iam made an offer of 4k over what Paul has agreed so I tell the guy he has until this eve to come up with a big cash deposit(5k).Guy comes down today looks at car and goes for a rip and hands me 5k deposit in cash.Iam a business man just like Paul and at the end of the day who would turn down the greater offer??

Genuine question,would you have turned down the four k?
I would hate to get f**ked over, but I would hate to turn down 4k......I would have turned it down though.....with a tear

i think the decent thing would have been to keep paul in the picture and as he had agreed to buy the car first at least given him the chance to up his bid-if he wanted to.
to sacrifice the sapphire it must have been a car he really wanted to buy..........
how would justin have liked it if paul had tried to buy the fiesta he was lining up to buy?

Get a grip Paul
IMO You must have made 1000's over the years on deals buying cars off folk that dont realise the value of what they had and i bet you didn't worry about morals ect then
You win some you loose some and i bet you've won your fare share
You come a across very bitter on losing out, sore loser?

I will be 100% honest
I would have called ( me ) the buyer and said , look i have been offered 4k more , do you want to half the 4k
that way i get 2k more , the buyer gets 2k for the let down and the fact they sold there car etc
that way , we ALL win , i get 2k extra , the buyer gets 2k and the new buyer gets the car he wants
everones a winner
BUT, if the buyer says NO i want my car then 100% honesty they get the car
I am a man of my word and i have proved this as i have kept my word to phil even tho
1, I have had a higher offer for the saff
2, I dont want to sell it now

when did you tell me you had higher bids ? other than the one you said you had BEFORE you agreed to sell to me at the agreed price because in your words
You told me you rang the other buyer who offered 1k more and said " money talks bulshit walks " do you want it or dont you , and there reply was they couldnt raise the money for some weeks , and this wasnt good enough for you so you called me back and said the car was 100% mine at your full asking price
you then told me on sunday that people were ringing you asking if the car was for sale , you DID NOT tell me you had more higher offers and you were thinking about them , all you asked was is it ok to meet this coming weekend , so after asking that why would i think our deal was at risk
End of the day justin i took you at your word , i quess its my fault for being stupid to think you were a man who kept your word
No worries justin you must need the 4k more than i do as my word is worth a lot more than 4k and im proud of that
As for the fiesta , you know i was intrested in this anyway even before you wanted it , but im not childish enough to buy it just to piss you off , even if i was Harvey wouldnt do that to you and you know it . BECAUSE HE IS A MAN OF HIS WORD JUSTIN

Good luck
Paul

the seller of the escos was playing off how many different people in a price war, without keeping the person he'd give his word to in the picture as to whats going on with the deal.
absolute cunts trick IMO what a fucking messer

I am a man of my word - if i put a car up for x, and i get offered x, the car gets sold
if another person comes along and offers me x+y for it, im sorry the car is already sold!
if however the first buyer chipped my price down to only w, and the second buyer offered me x, id phone the first buyer and offer them the chance to up there offer
But on the basics of it, You advertise your car at price x for the reason you see its value at x, or x is what you need for it to get whatever your having next! I have the morals to stand up and say if a buyer comes in and offers me more and i have accepted a price, to at least call the original buyer and split the difference with them or sell the car to them as i had agreed
Paul, I hope you find a better car to replace it! and im glad you took the high ground
Justin: Greed is the root of all evils. Im not a religous man but karma always prevails with things like this!

car
i am sorry but the problem is with cars like these it takes a lot more money to build than what people think , and a lot of the people that are makeing coments about this deal wouldnt even have the money to do it with anyways..a lot off people are full of shite..
justin"s car is a proper built car and its worth a lot off money,
paul your not the best bidder in the world and at the end off the day no mater what people says your out to line your own pockets in what ever way you can..the saff i no what you paid for it and i no what you asked for it and you were not selling it for no loss..if you were wanting the escort you should off went to ireland and baught it..
i have always liked justin"s car from the first day i saw it .the fella is more than with in his rights to sell the car to who ever he likes ,and who ever pays the most for it ..
i am the new owner of the car as in from the night i paid a fare price for the car i didnt try to rip justin off .
i dont realy care what people thinks off me people that treat me right i treat them right,
thanks steven...
