I have had a fucking titsfull of buyers and sellers this week...
Annecdote 1:
I was selling a phone on ebay. Had the £1 sellers fee promo so was happy to see the phone went for the going price £170.00 and I only had to pay a £1 fee, bonus. Then the retarded buyer merssaged me and said
"Hi, I haven't go the money but I will have it by the end of May"
What the actual fuck,
I may have lost my shit on her a little, half expecting ebay to message me about some sort of harrasment violations.
IF YOU DON'T HAVE THE MONEY, DON'T FUCKING BID.
Annecdote 2:
I have a fridge on FB, It's a decent one, works like a dream and it's even frost free. How much am I asking, nothing! FREE, Gratis.
I've had about 7 people message me saying "I'm coming tonight". I've waited in, or even taken time of work... not one fucker has turned up. They just go quiet and don't answer me. The latest one just came up with an elaborate story...
"I can't collect because my daughter got beaten up and just went to hospital, and I have been trying to get her a house but that just fell through and my car is not working..."
FUCK ME.... Can't give it away.
Annecdote 3:
Buying a car off a guy on Facebook. I was messaging him asking for details, and he was unable to answer in more than 2 word sentences. Ok I thought, that's fine, he must be a busy guy. After painstakingly extracting all the required info about the car from him I finally get down to sorting a place to meet...
Me: "Where abouts are you located?"
Him: "Neath"
Me: "Yeah, Neath is a big place, where abouts in Neath"
Him: "Skewen"
Me: "Narrowed it down to a slightly smaller place.. Where in Skewen?"
Him: "Not far from the trainstation"
Me: "Where? What address? What postcode? Can I have your number?"
Him (after 7 hours): Car has sold!

I did have one bloke proper irate with me because I agreed to sell him some computer monitors but he hadn't said when he was coming someone else offered to come in an hour so they went to him.
Other bloke starts calling me all the names under the sun and says he was on route and I owe him money for wasting his time/petrol. I said "OK I'll give you £50 cash come and collect it." "OK whats your address?" "If you were on your way you would fucking know it!" ____________________ Well, you know what they say.

If you want to get rid of stuff on FB, don't give it away, sell it for a stupid price. If you think it's worth £50, make it £15 or £20. If people see it's free, they won't put a value on your (or their) time. If it's a bargain, they are more likely to not be a fuckwit about it. ____________________ Chances are quite high you are not in my Monkeysphere, and I don't care about you. Don't take it personally.

Gumtree and schpock... avoid, totally useless.
Facebook? Once, ONCE! I managed to sell something on there. FB is such a pain for bikes... "I'm interested!" and then "I didn't realise you were in London!"
eBay though, been pretty lucky there. I just read through the feedback of the buyers and sellers and that's usually a fair indication.
The main annoyance is when you have an auction and there's a constant drip of "how much to buy now?" to which I always reply with something ludicrous...
The worst is selling something sizeable or delicate. Collection only? "Can you ship the bike pls? To Africa?" No I fecking can't, fecking read damn you! ____________________ Husqvarna Vitpilen 401, Yamaha XSR700, Honda Rebel, Yamaha DT175, Suzuki SV650 (loan) Fazer 600, Keeway Superlight 125, 50cc turd scooter |

Ah but Yeah but No but..
I maintain, there is no shortage of cnut-hole sellers on ebay et al too.
eBay is never going to be the retail panacea.
Amazon are cnuts too.
And Tesco.
Lidl.
Aldi.
M&S.
All of them and any of them are cnuts.
And all you BCFers with eBay seller accounts to boot.
