 |
|
Ive got a guy coming all the way from holland for my K1H today.
When (if) he buys it he wants to do an instant bank transfer of the money from his account in holland... will I need and IBAN number etc or will my noraml sort code and account number be ok? ____________________ Current : '08 Yamaha FZ1s

I thought bank transfers could be cancelled a day or 2 after, before the money is properly transferred over?
I'd never trust this way... cash only!  ____________________ Previous: Aprilia Habana Retro 50cc (beauty), Yamaha SR125 (fell apart), Honda XR125 (nippy little commuter), Honda SLR650 (Geewhizz), Yamaha Diversion 900S (Smoooooth) written off courtesy of a stupid escaped horse.

Hey Michael,
Nice bike and it looks good on the pictures!
Do you have some more pictures?
And do you mind selling it to a foreigner? (The Netherlands)
What a 53 plate by the way?
thanks,
Thom |
I mailed him back saying i dont care who buys it as long as i dont have to do anything, sold my cbr to a dutch fella and had no problems at all.
He then emailed this:
| Quote: | Hi Mike
If it's possible I can already pick it up this week? Friday or Sunday?
And do you want cash or can I transfer it to your bank account when I'm at your place? That's easier for me, but let me know.
Thanks!
Thom |
I never got around to dealing with him however as a lad from southampton bought my b1h tuesday.
the reason they buy them, the dutch guy who i dealt with previously explained, is that they have a very high import tax on luxury items, i.e vehicles etc. So for them to buy bikes in they are very expensive, means used prices are also very expensive. Buti f they buy and import older vehicles (cars arent so ideal due to us being RHD) the tax is much less, or zero.
So for the them to come here, with the weak pound, buy our bikes even at a good price for us, when they get to holland they can make a lot of profit
Like others have said though, cash only |

Another thing I've found with foreigners buying bikes is they try and take the whole v5 untouched. Do not let them do this. Send it off as you would with anyone else. Despite what they claim, you can take a bike out of the country with just the new keeper slip, it may take them 5 days more to register it exported, but don't run the risk.

I called the DVLA and checked this out, they DO need the full V5 untouched for re-registering and tax or something...... i just have to write to the DVLA to tell them who the new owner is and where the bikes gone.
As you may have guessed i sold it to the dutch bloke who came over from holland with his car and trailer after doing a normal bank transfer of the money using my IBAN etc. He paid ?3500 for it which i was pleased with since i couldnt even sell it for ?3300 here after a month of trying.
