Gypsy didn't sell...

..on ebay. Very dissapointing. I'll try again after Easter.

But I thought I'd share one blokes idea for her..

His idea was to take off the wheels and axle and mount it on the back of a twin cab ute! I thought that was a very clever idea.

Naturally, he didn't want to pay my price when he was planning to pull it apart. But he did agree that she is worth my price.

So there's still hope.

He would be better to build his own rather than pull Gypsy apart Beth. Would be be a waste of a good van. Don't despair, it will sell.

Beth have you tried it on Gumtrees? put it on about Fri morning (normal weekend) not easter, but make sure you put in the ad cash sale only, and do not have people coming to your home, meet the buyer in a public place, supermarket carpark and take somebody with you for support, do not give out your phone number just deal with email replies.

Make sure the buyer does not follow you home.

just some tips for selling on Gumtrees.

Watch out for scammers on Gumtrees, they contact you by text or phone and want you to ship the unit somewhere, just tell them to p!ss off.

It's been on Gumtree for a few weeks wombat, also Simple Traders and Quokka.

I only put it on ebay because these others weren't attracting any attention.

Do people still use Trading Post? My son thinks it's old hat now, but I reckon older people may still use it.

He did the ad for me, and aimed it at the motorcylce/small car market.

You could try Trading Post Beth. Its only online now, they don't have it in paper form anymore. Can't see why it wouldn't still be popular.

Yippee! We have a buyer! For my lowest price, but it's better than any other offers.

Happy now!
