As some of you will have seen, i've got my motorbike up for sale at the minute. It's been on eBay since last Sunday, has 37 watchers, 515 views and 22 days to go. I've had a fair bit of interest in it so far, probably about 8-9 calls and e-mails.

A guy has just rang me up asking if it was still for sale. He told me to save his number and give him a ring back if it didn't sell. I asked him why he wasn't interested whilst it was still for sale and he went on to tell me that it was far too expensive, there was no point in me looking for a 600cc bike because they aint as good e.t.c. I asked him what he thought it was worth he said he would give me a maximum of £1500 (advertised for £2450)! I've already had an offer of £2100 so when I told him this he told me to take it "because theres no way you will get any more than that mate!" I told him there was no way I would be ringing him back with his ridiculously low offer to which he hung up.

People obviously have far too much time on their hands to go round making pointless calls like this. There are bike on there 4 years older than mine with more miles on for more money! If it was only worth £1500, thats what I would have advertised it for! :fighting: :fighting:

To contrast, I had a guy on the phone on Wednesday saying he was very interested and as soon as his bike sold he would be up for a look. He told me he would be happy to pay around £2350 and not to let it go for any less as it's worth that all day long!!

No wonder people part exchange for less money, private selling can be a pain in the :booty:

Yeah I feel the pain, had people knocking loads off when I had the ED30 up for sale. Put it in for the cheapest for a quick sale and got people offering 3-4k less than the asking price.

Other than that i've only ever sold one other car which got pretty much the asking price for. GLWTS  :happy2:

Some people are just dreamers, I've had my GTI for sale for 7500 and I've had people genuinely expecting to drive away for 5 grand!

MAT ED30:
been thinking of putting ed30 up for sale but dont know if i can be bothered with all the d1cks wanting thing cheap  :fighting: its up at a price and if you cant afford it dont come look at it  :stupid:

candy turbo:
^^^^ thats the best attitude to have but some others might need to sell so cant be like that , if i was buying private tbh i would start with a low offer but only if i was genuinly interested  :happy2:
