Couple of pearlers in the last few weeks with my ute for sale on dumbtree and carsales.
Its for sale at 20k
"how much would this car be to transport to Sydney?"
- told him how much it cost me to transport from QLD
- no reply
(seperate guy) "I will offer 18k max cause i have to get it delivered to sydney"
- told him its not my fault he lives in sydney
- no reply
messaging a fella back and forth, and he was trying to talk me down - which i was willing to negotiate in his benefit. I explained that i had completed full servicing and maintenance inc. new front and rear brakes with new brembo discs and EBC red stuff pads and a new centre bush
"i serviced my car and did all that work for under $600"
- sent him a link to front only brembo discs at $500
- no reply
I swear texting and online enquiries attracts bell ends, who are not interested, can't afford it, or just want to start an argument. The kind of people unwilling to pay what they try and sell the same product for. Also, no idea how to negotiate or just be mannered.
Oh, and i forgot the people that try and trade up their vehicles - something much older with higher kms. No, I'm not going to trade my mint 6spd manual modified BFII tornado with 82000kms a for a factory 5spd BA GT with 185000kms
could go on for days
