i know your pain, im trying to sell a transit van.

To be fair a very good van, at a VERY cheap price (need to sell before christmas really so i have lowered the price a lot to the point im losing around £400 on it)

and i get so many F***ing jokers, I honestly dont know why people mess around, if you dont want the van, dont call me or send me an offer its THAT SIMPLE. yet people constantly get in touch "ill have this off you, cya on a at 6pm" and obviously you never hear from them again.

Most annoying of all is that I had mine set to "best offer" and i accepted a guys offer the day after he sent it (about 10 hours after) and he writes back "i thought you didnt want to sell so i bought another van" ok in the 10 hours you waited for a reply you bought another van? SURE.
but what really takes it, is that my advert is now listed as "sold" and i would have to pay another £15 to re-list it, i even phoned ebay they said i have to file a "return" with the the buyer so that he can say he never paid for it an no longer wants the item, and then it will be re-listed for free. Only problem is that I sent the request to him the instant he said he no longer wanted the van (but he never Fing accepted it) so the advert is stuck in limbo now, if he doesn't accept the cancellation it will take 7 days, and i explained to ebay I need this sold by christmas 7 days is not acceptable, why the F should i suffer because of complete pricks who dont have any integrity?

Sorry to go on such a rant! i must sound like a loony, but the world of ebay users is such a horrible place, there are genuine ebayers i know, but this just irritates me to no end, and it ALWAYS feels like ebay sides with the buyer no matter what.

anyway, if anyone is after a mk6 LWB ford transit with a fully refurbished bed, i have one, cheap :P

This is the 1 reason I'm not putting my 2.5T on Ebay or Scumtree. I'd rather take my time and sell it on here to someone who is down to earth and honest and not going to mess me around. I'll deal with someone in the manner that I'd like to be dealt with .
Good luck with the transit..and all joking apart PM the details of it incl the price as one of my friends are looking for a transit to tow a rally car and carry spares. I don't know his budget but give me all the details u can and I'll pass them on.

I don't often sell cars, but twice this year I've put 2 cars up forsale on eBay and both occasions sold quickly and cash for on or near asking price.

The gul estate 1st day full asking price (£4500)

Now I've started lending them to people so I can buy more.
