Thankyou! Unfortunately a lot of the 'private' sellers are just driveway chancers, but sometimes they're genuine.

colino Posted February 25, 2023 Posted February 25, 2023 Not uncommon if you are trading a handful of cars to have cheap mobiles with the name of the car taped to the different phones. It really does work with buyers working through the buying tips from the AA book of the road. BorniteIdentity and egg 1 1

I said ok, what's the address for viewing He then gave me the address for the Sainsbury's "that his missus worked at", and said it's easier to meet there By this point I knew the deal was probably dead in the water for me, but I decided to play along a bit I asked why we were meeting at Sainsbury's and not at home, he said he's "not in the habit of giving his address out to strangers no offence haha" I then said that the address is going to be on the V5 that you will be showing me as I wouldn't be buying the car otherwise, so that logic doesn't make sense. He said of course I could see the V5 but he'd black out his personal details (??) then gave another excuse that it's just easier to meet at Sainsbury's I then asked him how it is easier to meet at Sainsbury's and look for each other in a random car park than to meet at the home which he will presumably be living at? Eventually he gave me an address, maybe his home, maybe not. I thought sod it, let's go and see what it's all about. I'll do a drive by to start with and if it doesn't look dodgy I'll knock on the door Later that evening, I send a message saying I'm on my way. He replies "no problem, see you shortly" He then sends a message 10 minutes or so later (when I'm on my way) spurting out all sorts of drivel about me being a some sort of weird freak who wants to know where people live, that I'm wasting his time (bear in mind it's my time being wasted because I'm on my way) and to not bother coming or he'll call the police (?)
