 >:( >:( >:(

Has anyone ever tried to sell a vechical on Gumtree before?? Are they all inbread or something?
I have had three guys saying that they are all desperate for a van and please please dont sell till i've seen it! And all three have rubber dinghyed me! at the last minute! >:( One even cost me another potential viewing! << having said that he would have probably dinghyed me too! grrrrr

Rant over.

Anyone want a Ford Transit Connect, 80,800 miles, full service history, 11 months MOT, Taxed till May 2011, no bumps, scratches or rust!  £2,700 ONO  ;D

Never ever give Gumtree the time of day. It's full of crooks and plain weirdoes.

If I am selling anything, it is for sale until someone gives me the money. I never hold it back. First person to pay gets it.
Lost a business sale once to a tImewaster and then lost the second buyer. Cost me lots, never again.

Hi Jason

I did not think you was interested in Hwe cleaning? could I ask why you have decided to go this route also now? Is it because you now feel its the best method as opposed to rotary.

Paul

Reason I ask is because I am thinking about starting to push vlm cleaning with my rotary

On the very small percentage of jobs I need to use HWE I decided a TM was the best choice , also i do a lot  of things like pressure washing of small outside areas and water damaged buildings.   May as well have a large tm as a small one and there is one at the right deal available.

Guess you must have this typed out ready to post each time you're asked or perhaps you have reached that age where you just keep repeating yourself, yourself, yourself, yourself......... ;D

Not only me :P
All sales first come first served, never reserve without a non returnable deposit.
Watch out on gumtree if you pay for adverts as they have been known to still take your money when advert has run its course.

I was not reserving it for the time wasters.
But they all said that they'd come at such and such a time. So when others called, i had to let them know that someone else was coming to see the van at (say) 7pm so they where welcomed to come anytime after that.
But all three just didn't appear!  >:(
