Caveat Emptor
« on: 25 March 2014, 22:32:41 »

Comes to summat on here when after numerous Pm`s arranging a purchase, paying a deposit, having confirmation of the arrival of seller, drawing monies from the bank for said seller, then seller sends a BS message reneging on the deal. Ah well, another one on the "ignore" list

As always, if you have a problem with a buyer / seller advertising here, please contact the admin team in the first instance rather than engaging in public mud-slinging.
