I don't get it...

  1. I'm always on the look out for bits and pieces. Looking thru the classified section I'm quite shocked at some of the comments regarding the condition and/or price, the 'good luck with that' or 'how much!!!'

    My first reaction is WTF has it got to do with anyone else. If its priced its for sale. If someone buys good luck to the vendor and the purchaser. From what I can see some of it borders on the VZI style troll behaviour.

    Rant over

  2. I recall a few years ago someone wanting a quick sale on a bus. It was close and I went around within the hour and offered him the asking price. Agreed on this I buggered off to get the cash. He called me and advised me that a number of people had posted to say it was too cheap and he upped the price. I looked on line (JK) and I walked away as even though it was probably worth it I wasnt getting a bargain and my word is my bond, his wasnt. Ive no idea whether he sold or who too.

    Some of you guys might recall this. The guy might even be on here ! Ring any bells. Anyway folks shut but out imho whether they think its too expensive or too cheap if its in the mart section. Message the seller if youve some imput but dont screw someon over.
     
  3. How much had he upped it Dicky ?

    If you see any of this behaviour on here please report the posts. If someone is taking the pee we'll try to deal with them. At the end of the day it's no ones business but the seller how much they want to charge, If people don't like the price then don't buy it. Simples :)

    What if they're really bigging up something that really isn't that special?
    Buyer beware, or a friendly forum should warn potential newbies who may just stumble across the advert and believe the hype?

    I agree mate, but a pm to the seller or a report to us is more helpful than a thread turning into a slagging match which it sometimes does
