Just sold my car on ebay and got pretty much what I wanted for it. It's only been a day, but I was a little worried by the lack of contact from the buyer, so I called him.
He had received my emails but was waiting to sort out a lift from Liverpool to here (near Durham) to pick up the car.
The listing clearly states that a £100 deposit should be paid by paypal as soon as the auction finishes - he hasn't paid it. The remainder to be paid in cash on pickup.
The buyer says he can't get up to pick up the car for at least a week, possibly more, which leaves me in a bit of a pickle.... I've bought a new car already and need the cash. Also, if he decides not to go ahead, I want to offer 2nd chances to the next couple of bidders before they buy other cars.
So, what would you do?
