It should be first with money in the account

binner ·

Well, see my problem is that I think put it on eBay first then on here.....I didn't realise it would get so much attention ,

newghia ·

If you put 'advertised elsewhere' in your Ebay listing..... You probably should revert back to first contact like I said before....
That would be the honourable thing to do, not saying that you are not, I just feel that's a fair way to handle it.
It's a very good price, that's why you have so much interest.... In saying that, I feel that you think it was a fair price & that's what you were happy to get for it...
For what it's worth, I'd buy it, but Ben / Type 3 Disease is a friend & he appears to be first cab off the rank.... So I didn't even try.
It'll all work out in the end, hopefully easily for all parties,
Nath

^^^^ yup , I'm waiting for the first guy to get back to me tonite, if I don't hear from him by midnight then it goes to the next. I'm going to take it off eBay now. Even though in the past I have been flamed by some users on here for trying selling a genuine item I'll honour the sale price. I could be an ass and play highest price but I'm a good guy.

newghia ·

Ben is a good bloke, just as you are.
Well done mate, respect 👍

It would/should fit on a 120cm x 120cm pallet about 60 high freight guessitmate from Brisbane city to Melbourne city would be about $100-$120,can be cheaper or more expensive,depends on who you use,express or general freight,business address to business address or private to private,also if any manual handling comes into it can be a surcharge

bushed ·

nope, that smells of city versus the bush...been there... (therefore my avatar name...bushed)
but a resonable time to pay by the fist dibser should be expected,
like guys/gals who live around the corner have the BIG advantage of free pick-up and know the cost of their shipping (ha ha) and can front up with cash...same day maybe even hear it run and inspect all....
others with bank acc's need 3 day clearance etc. then there are risks and transport costs and timing comes very much into play..
so always in dibsing order pending payment.....
good luck and fair dealing...cheers

Not questioning you Ian - I assumed I was the first person as there was no phone number listed - all cool - I missed out ...

Congrats on the sale ...

Not really fella, first in was first served....like you can see in the
previous posts I even took it off fucking eBay although it went on there pretty much the same time
So,no mystery ....more like someone got a bargain. I was offered more than 1K but I was being a good guy and kept to the timelines of contact...

Thanks for your concern.....

splitbus ·

FFS Calm yourself down fella, all I was saying is it's a mystery who the lucky buyer was
