Ok sold the Tina for a rather harsh sum of £1550 - well say sold its in the balance as the guy who won it sent me a message asking me if I could wait until he sold his VW then he would collect her i said hell no So he thusly said he will pick her up nxt friday no deposit?? The guy who was in contact with me pretty much every day was at work when it finished and was quite pissed off he was out bid he mailed me today and offered to give me his newly acquired opel manta plus just to get it www.ebay.co.uk/itm/121084811204link to the manta Now how do I go about turning down the highest bidder? Just my luck the highest bidder is on the BHRA site ;D

Well the way I'd play it would be to argue that he should have asked the questions about payment and collection before the auction had ended. In my experience when someone wants you to wait without offering a deposit they never turn up ! If you want the Manta then I'd do the deal but save all the messages from the other guy just in case. What's the worst that can happen, you get bad feedback ? Even then you get the opportunity to post a reply and I don't think anyone would expect you to wait for him to sell his VW before completing the transaction.

Yeah I have had the same with non appearing 'winners' I'll muse it over the next day or so and probably tell him the cars not for sale anymore and just let him have a rant and a rave ;D
