1) Claims to be a doctor - can he come and collect it. Oh and by the way do you think it will fit in the back of his vauxhall corsa? FFS there is a photo of the huge thing int he advert.
b) Another two or three saying great , I'll take it. Please deliver to me at this address...
iii) Is it in concert pitch? It's a hundred years old and free FFS.
d) Others saying they will come and look, but never turn up.
5) Finally got rid of it to a young guy who could not afford to buy one. Despite me stressing to him how heavy the bloody thing was, I ended up having the manhandle it into the back of a transit van without any ramps.
Still, its what online selling has become. Thankfully I have had a good experience the only time I have ever bought anything off there,.
One lesson I've learned is to never, ever, offer anything for "free" on gumtree.
Even a minimal fee of £5 cuts out a lot of the idiots. If its not worth £5 then its probably not worth your time getting rid anyway.
I've had a few weird experiences, from a guy wanting to take the guitar away to try at band practice that night "If I like it I'll come back with the cash tomorrow". Err, NO.
To a guy who turned up 3 hours late & woke my entire street turning my amp up full whilst trying a guitar. I'd given him headphones and asked that he use them "I'll be fine without- I just want to make sure the pots don't crackle, I won't turn it up past 1".

If you want to begin it with ass then I'd suggest you should go for "asshat".

Things like the TVs are easily worth a fiver. Anyway, you don't even need to take the money off them (I've done this in the past). But it seems to be a barrier that stops the timewasting crazies.
instead of cancelling my half day on Friday im off beer shopping for the final 7 beers in my 365 Beer challenge :-)
My feedback thread is here.
i started on the 1st Novlast year so need to finish by next Monday to complete 365 different beers in a year, only rule is that it must be a min of half a pint. its been a slog at times towards the end trying to find different beers on a night out :-)
The bed was collected bang on time by two eastern european men who were both easily taller than me (I'm 6'3") and built like a matching pair of brick shithouses. Sweet dreams, Igor.
Don't talk politics and don't throw stones. Your royal highnesses.

As a rule of thumb I'll only accept cash if they're picking up.
If I'm buying something expensive, I tend to do a bit of cyber digging first to see if there's a bit of history, most musos have a trail of stuff they've bought or sold (we all suffer from GAS and the me wants) if anyone looks dodgy I avoid them.
When it comes to selling what generally annoys me is when someone wants to effectively part ex a pile of stuff to get a big value item.
What they don't seem to grasp is the price stated is for cash and that's what I want or near enough with a bit of haggling. I might consider something that I can sell on with cash on top, but don't expect me to shift a pile of your stuff for you unless I can make more money by doing so.
