CardiffSupra Posted August 9, 2005 Author Share Posted August 9, 2005 They said i will get my money back in full, because they make there money off the people buying my car, some kind of finance company. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supra_Nish Posted August 9, 2005 Share Posted August 9, 2005 They said i will get my money back in full, because they make there money off the people buying my car, some kind of finance company. Its a rip off, they're legit companies but def dont have buyers waiting. I think you olny get the money back if it sells which it usually doesnt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael Posted August 9, 2005 Share Posted August 9, 2005 Rip off, tell them to go away or provide you with a buyer before billing you for the £80 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevie_b Posted August 9, 2005 Share Posted August 9, 2005 If they definitely had buyers lined up, then they'd be happy to complete the deal for you, giving you £8120 (8200 - 80). I would, if I were them. If they want you to stump up some kind of handling fee, it can't be a dead cert. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jim_supra Posted August 9, 2005 Share Posted August 9, 2005 Yeah they are a rip off, I made the mistake of trying that approach. the car didn't sell and was then down £80!! Never again :thumbdown I even had one company call me up yesterday about acar I have for sale at the mo, and they had the cheek to argue with me when I said I wasn't interested!
