Kyle_ Posted March 21, 2019 Posted March 21, 2019 Definitely a scam, People surely don't fall for these kind of scams!I tried selling a motor on Gumtree a few years back & this happened to me, I dont use Gumtree much anymore. Quote
fastbob Posted March 22, 2019 Author Posted March 22, 2019 I've got no problems with Gumtree itself, I flogged a pushbike two weeks ago and got the asking price too. I still got a couple of scammers who wanted me to post it to them though . As a buyer I think it's great , I've bought loads of stuff including my ER5 and my touring bicycle. Quote

BIKERDAD Posted March 22, 2019 Posted March 22, 2019 hard cash on collection cant beat it So what's stopping them knocking you over the head and taken the cash and the bike or in today's day stabbing you taken the cash andn the bike ... It's all a gamble . Did any you see the scammer programme on TV about credit card scams these 4 got away with nearly 3million and the most they got was 3 months in jail rest suspended sentances. So if they do Nick your bike what's the chance you ever see it again or get justice for the crime. Wee rant over Quote
BIKERDAD Posted March 22, 2019 Posted March 22, 2019 royal mail would never get though the letterbox WHAT A BET if they week in the mood not to fill out a card or take it back to the sorting office they have a go lol . Quote
fastbob Posted March 23, 2019 Author Posted March 23, 2019 Right , the GSXR is on Gumtree, Preloved, Car and Classic , MCN and the next edition of Classic Mechanics. I just don't fancy eBay but can anyone suggest anywhere else I can advertise it ? Quote

I can't actually remember whether I've done this one as well , I'll have to check ! Quote
onesea Posted March 24, 2019 Posted March 24, 2019 Wow , cheers for the rapid and unanimous response. Suffice to say I haven't given any details away . Have some fun with them , keep replying with silly questions If they are a seafarer ask them what ship they are on what it does most once asked most seafarers cannot help but tell you...I had the same selling a boat, the guy was in Nigeria my response was I am actually in NIgeria Lagos at moment will accept Cash USD Euro or GBP funnily enough I never got another message!At the end of one trip abroad I could not help myself I wanted to look at a boat (and bought) of Gumtree I could not help but do it'"I am abroad at the moment would like to view your item. what date do you propose?""God willing I will be home on by the time you stated if I could please come view, my agent will be with me with cash and transport". He took some convincing with messages like "I have flights booked and should be there to inspect item at the time we agreed, my agent is arranging the cash at this time","Can you confirm the weight of the item so I can forward to my agent to confirm transportation details",I never mentioned what the item was or the time in my messages, bless him he was there surprised to find the "agent" was my misses I was british and the whole thing was genuine we paid cash and towed away..

fullscreenaging Posted March 24, 2019 Posted March 24, 2019 How about taking it to your local dealer to sell it for you? Quote
fastbob Posted March 24, 2019 Author Posted March 24, 2019 How about taking it to your local dealer to sell it for you? Unfortunately I haven't got a local dealer. There's nothing in the West Midlands that I know of that would be interested in selling a 26 year old bike . Quote
fastbob Posted April 6, 2019 Author Posted April 6, 2019 Well , Ive got a potential buyer coming tomorrow. Quote
fastbob Posted April 6, 2019 Author Posted April 6, 2019 Good Luck! I'd buy it! Now you tell me ! I've slashed the price to £2000. Quote
fastbob Posted April 7, 2019 Author Posted April 7, 2019 It's looking very good . A decent buyer who knows his bikes has been round for a proper look and expressed a strong interest . Watch this space . Quote
fastbob Posted April 9, 2019 Author Posted April 9, 2019 No decision yet , the guy seemed really commited to buying it . Now the anticipation is turning back to gloom again . What's more frustrating is that there are quite a few Harley Roadsters out there within my budget . I never thought it would be this difficult to change bikes . Thank goodness I've still got the little ER to pootle about on. I'll console myself with looking at pictures to keep the dream alive. Quote
Bender Posted April 9, 2019 Posted April 9, 2019 Part exchange out of the question with any of them? Quote
