I should say eBray really as there are some real donkeys on there.
Put the escort for sale on eBay (aware of the massive costs for selling), but hey, oh. After the usual will you take £5 and a bag o' sweets for it (would have if it was Mint Humbugs).
Anyway have this email saying desperate for the car, etc, etc, etc. A few more land with a Mobile number to ring, so returned a call with my normal, unregistered, 'stand by', 'pay as you go' mobile, (just in case). Then you get the 'take it as sold', take it off eBay, etc, etc.
Next call 'we're on our way down' (haven't given them the address yet, only very rough directions), a little later 'almost there', and then 'won't be long', then 'can you get the car to Kenfig Hill' (??). Yes, I'll be straight there, not. Okay, we'll be there, soon , and then 'oh were abouts are you, again' (!!!).
Then a really decent guy emails, I explain the other 'pending' sale. He says no problem and we agree a decent Pay Pal deposit (refundable if I sell to the 'Donkeys') and reduced Buy it Now for a sale off eBay. Take it off eBay after the deposit.
Obviously, the others are still making thier way down, although haven't heard off them, hope they are okay, saying that though the directions I gave to them on the last call should get them a good kick in if they knock the door as he's a Traffic Cop.
eBay......eh!

Well taken a really good deposit, just waiting for collection and the balance.
If not it will be back up and I'm a few quid better off.
