sierraman Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 I think sometimes they don’t actually want to buy it, they just want to know if you are still trying to sell it. horriblemercedes and Eyersey1234 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave_Q Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 The FB app doesn't really help, if you press the message seller button it's already preloaded with Is it still available? so you could conceivably accidentally press those exact two buttons and pocket send. In fact I go out of my way to not use this message even if I am asking if it's still there to help the seller know I'm a human not a knobend stripped fred, Jamie, Dan_ZTT and 5 others 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s just a bit more personable, so long as you don’t go ‘what’s your best price’... bunglebus 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sutty2006 Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 Think I’ll be blocking this one too. Seam to be getting a lot of travellers wives messaging me about the caravan all of a sudden. This one’s fit, so need to protect myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pieman Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 I reckon a lot of the time, they show interest so they can find your location and then come and nick it. Pat Earrings 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stripped fred Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 I think they send messages to lots of people and they can't remember who they've messaged. They're also not that interested unless the price is low so they can turn it around to make a profit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately there are more than a couple of messers on here, I've had a couple who agreed to buy then go quiet ignoring messages whilst continuing to post and another who is bloody impossible to buy a car off even when I've said I have the cash and can be there in an hour or so, for two separate vehicles on two different occasions which have been advertised for sale, sadly the forum isn't moron free either but I guess that's the law of averages.

True, I shouldn't be moaning, this place has a lower moron rate than most places! Onwards and upwards; I'll stick an ad for it up shortly. Their loss could be someone else's gain*.

rob88h Posted July 8, 2022 Share Posted July 8, 2022 I was trying to buy a spares car to pick up this weekend as the MOT on it would be out next week. The whole “selling for a mate” thing - I thought was a ploy for plausible deniability of any issues, but I’ve never had it go so far as this guy, who effectively doesn’t know if what he’s selling is even for sale!
