Buying from late bay members

You said he was brand new and unused

Oh we'll these things happen, if I can help with the burns in anyway I will, pm for good times

 

Well I'm paying cash, It's Ted! See you Saturday I hope. Will text / pm you with my number plate etc. Hard luck if you have been conned but I hope you haven't...

 

Perhaps the admins can make or that users can't post in the for sale section until they have reached 50 posts.

I never buy from anyone who has just registered.

 

a lot of forums do this and also insist the username is posted in the picture - not added after by computer.

 

Maybe Admin need to make it a sellers rule that you cant ask for paypal via "gift" anyone caught doing so is banned, there is no need really, just add the small amount to the price asked.
Anyone wishing to see my ideas on other things pls paypal gift to keith@ youbinhad. Com

 

Morally good, but practically that would prevent the buyer atempting to contact the seller and vica versa.

 

I think there may be an option for admin to stop people from posting on the open forum but they are still able to PM etc. I could be wrong though.

 

yes agree but most people out there are honest and sometimes their time frame is a bit weak. so lets not shoot them too soon or have a vetting procedure to filter who joins?
Maybe not practical but assume moderators have email addresses/contact details that can be verified/searched prior to acceptance?

 

No different than eBay then.

 

I don't understand the PayPal thing about paying via gift. What does it mean?

 

It's not me is it?
I get forgetful when I'm tired (as a newt).

I know I've got to take some stuff to G&C but I've forgotten what it is.

I usually give stuff away though so I don't think I have anyone's money.

 

if you send as a gift there are no fees to the seller so if it is £10 they get £10 - but there is then no guarantee to the buyer...... it's supposed to be for sending money to friends etc

 

And making it look like untaxable income.

 

We'll see....

Here, here. It is just a reminder that things don't always go as they should. Everyone should be vigilant

Good advise, but if you think the seller is widely trusted etc then you're less likely to worry about that I suppose. I'm still hopeful that I have not been done.

 

Ah Grill and Chill
Who is going ?
I will be there, I'm the one without hubcaps and no money ..,,,
Is there going to be a TLB
Contingent ?
Looking forward to putting a face to some of these messages

 

Buddy hawks,
I A M nice that's my trouble too nice some times ,
I do play fair and hope mistakenly that others do too, but what goes around comes around.
And no I haven't got the boots off yet but I will kept trying as an officer told me once the only way you give up is when your dead
The only reason I said some thing is there was some one else who wanted it and as I offered it to joker first I was honoured to do so, then when he or she never came I sent it onto the other person who dealt with it
That's all

 

you going sunday... well be there in the carpark
maybe see you there.

 

Always had a good experience buying here to be honest.

 

I have a set of four in excellent condition if you want them. They're the ones with the VW logo on.
