Mixed bag ime. I have had my fair share of timewasters too. Had a chap exchange 46 emails last week, I knew he was pulling my pudding at #5 but I fancied a bit of sport.
My contention with it is this, I advertise something of not inconsiderable value. You express an interest in it, indeed you’d like to buy it. We arrange for you to come and see it at my home. You don’t trap though. So, now I have something you want, and you know where it is.
To that end I now say, I’ll meet you at Tesco or whatever. If someone doesn’t like it then jog on.
Better than eBay because no fees but still full of James Hunt’s.
