Okay, i'm trying to sell 2 laptops. I've advertised them on a website and i've got a reply. I put them up for £350.


E-Mail said:
First E-Mail - i saw ** add and i will be willing to offer you £300..if this is ok by you..ii can come pick it up by friday latest..
cheers

My response - Alright mate i'll take £300. Give me a phone call or give me your number and i'll phone you.

When will be able to pick them up?

His second E-Mail - i wrote £250..nt £300..dat must be an error
(At this point i've got this :confused: expression on my face)

My response - No mate. I got £300 on the e-mail. I was going to say £320 but i'll do £300. If you give me your number then I can phone you.

His third E-Mail - (gives me his number. I phone him and we agree £300)

His fourth E-Mail - hi ,

I phoned him, we agreed £300 and he still asks me if I accepted his offer of £250.

Tell him to naff off, sell them to someone else.

People like that aren't even worth the trouble.. it's not like you're going to struggle to sell two laptops :)
 
Forward the E-mails he sent to you with the one, which has where he mentions £300. And just tell him to either take it or leave it and stop wasting your time.
 
Give us his number so we can ring him up and try to buy grapes off him.

When he tells us he's not a grape seller we will say "Oh right, so how much for a few bunches then?"






Don't give us his number :p
 
LOL he's back! He just e-mailed me again! I'm beginning to love this guy now! :D

if you can hold it till friday..i will see if i can get my brother to raise the £50 difference and would get bck to you..also you stay a canning town..i stay at lewisham..ow do we connect, as i will have to be back at work for 3pm on friday..would be free from 11 - 2pm...
also the acer as you said- (The Hard Drive needs replacing as it "hangs" on start. This will cost you £10 from a reputable PC store) you should deduct something for that..
anyway give me a call if u can so we can discuss details as i got low credit..
cheers

So, he's finally agreed to £300, however, wants money taken of it because the HDD needs replacing. It was £350 and i'm giving it to him for £300. This guy doesn't sound too clever either.
 
BINGO - I just phoned him. All of a sudden he upped his price back to £350 :confused: (So, he took me down to £300 from £350, asks for £250 when agreeing on £300, agrees on £300 and goes up to £350) saying he just recieved a cheque from work and would generously offer me the full funds.

What raised a smile "I will wire the money to you through Western Union"


I kindly told him to **** off and go **** himself sideways.

:)

He just phoned me up saying he'll pay cash and meet me where I want.

Shall I risk it and go ahead with it. I'll have 3 hench men with me. They practically live in the gym ;)
