NOW SOLD

Now on ebay, starting at £25 .. maybe a bargain for someone .. even for just the parts ..

ebay No 141596577601

Well, it sold on ebay for £75, ebay No 141596577601. I was happy enough for £75 but not prepared to work to get it, other than lifting it into someone's vehicle or trailer etc.

I had specified "Cash on collection only please. Paypal has to be offered but is impractical as they don't cover collections without online tracking, so I won't accept it when collecting. Their rules .. "

and "It has to be collected from Doncaster, but we will help to load it. We have no way to palletise it securely for couriers.. so bring plenty padding and straps!!"

Just had a call from the buyer, from Coventry! .. can anyone guess what they want me to do?

Yeah, he wants to pay by Paypal, have me palletise it up for their courier to collect and then wait in for when the courier says they want to collect it!

I currently have a slipped disc, been off work 2 weeks with another 2 to come with strict instructions to not lift anything, hence one reason why the 90 is taking a while to finish!!

So what do I do? I stuck to my guns when he called me, he went through every option of paying by Paypal and collecting by courier, himself, a friend, whatever. Oh, he has 3 feedback ... and eventually rang off after I explained that if he pays by Paypal I have no acceptable proof that he collected it and that he could claim it back off Paypal for non-delivery, and that I knew that as I'd been caught by it before, hence why I want cash! He offered £100 Paypal, but couldn't bring cash to collect it!

I call scammer .. biok.biok with 3 feedback so far ..

Think I'll have to open a dispute and re-list it when sorted.

Bloody newbies .. or scammers ...

His name isn't kingoi-uk is it as I'm also selling my old 19j and he's a bidder on that

No, biok.biok from Coventry ..

He's just called and says he now has a friend in Doncaster who can pay cash tomorrow.... we'll see ..

How far are you from Cambridge?

Doncaster .. dunno mileage but about 120 I'd guess ..

I can't pallet it up for a courier, as said above, but do have a hoist in the workshop where it is so it can be lifted onto a trailer ...

PS, the buyers friend called about 20 times but never actually came to the house! If no-one buys it I might split it into bits that can be posted .. and scrap the bulk of it .. I was offered £50 for the turbo and manifold alone but wouldn't do it 'cos there were bids on the whole thing.

Re-listed, hopefully people will notice how hard and awkward it would be for me to palletise it ...

Wounder bud, I got £137 for mine so good luck second time around

Good luck with the auction, I've seen it on the bay, time wasting bustards

Cheers ..

Well, it sold .. for £52 !! No worries, it's gone now, seller came, paid, took it, no worries!

Bud that's crap, as you say at least it's gone. I sold a disco gear and transfer box collection only turns out the buyer wanted me to drain, wrap and pallet it as he lives in Portugal. He wasn't impressed when I asked him if he preferred birthday or Christmas paper for it to be wrapped in. I also sold a pair of wing mirrors for 99p, she wanted me to wrap them and stay in for a courier to collect them, I told her where she could stick them. Poxy ebayers[emoji90]
