Tradex. The thing about videos is once you have found your routine it becomes a lot simpler. It's the future so should be embraced, from the constant feedback I get, my billies always comment about the personal description, and the fact they feel they can trust me. If you are monatonic and without character, I think you just become boring, the same with a video without comentary, its just boring... At the end of the day the video is your opportunity to sell yourself and the car, remember people buy from people..

I would say around 80% of my buyers don't test drive prior to paying the balance, they walk round the car confirm my description its accurate and they pay, 20 mins max including pleasantries I know, I know, it surprises me too........

life’s too short move on.

Ive seen this before, nothing to worry about. Its not a grey.

Thought so

Very subtle, I missed "were". Dixlexicts rule KO

Love those letters, BTW I agree you write like you born here

This is exactly right. Keep reasonable, let him dig his grave.. also, you need to state in the letter he has refused to tell you the mileage.

So he’s refused to tell you the miles covered?

How many miles has it done ?

Hi Selfie, we can teach you how to be fair but not be taken advantage of. Hi Selfie, we can teach you how to be fair but not be taken advantage of.

Agreed CAB are useless.

After 5 months.... legal requirements? Bring it back ?

Bollocks, cut is dead and stop the billy from taking advantage

If you give an inch they will take a mile. Don't give ever an inch. LIKE LIKE.

Nik, Ive always loved your letters...Perfectly toned.... LOVE THIS..

Is just me who see this.......Transfers only.... = zero additional fees.. no chargebacks or section 75... oh and the money is in your account within 2 hours.... you can BIN anther car and have it arrive at your site before a potential card payment has even got into your account. Why oh why take cards... unless it’s £99 deposit.

I will buy remotely privately occasionally off eBay, as long as after I’ve spoken to the seller I get the feeling they have been open and honest I have no problem securing the car with a small deposit, I also agree the price on the basis of their description and state I won’t mess with them on collection. You have to trust your own instincts on who you are dealing with.... small risk for a large reward. I agree with Nik, auctions nearly always have bargains you just need to be patient and to know when to take a punt, this does take years to learn... TV trusted his gut on the XF (another post) but that does takes years of experience and big balls to take a punt (with your own money) and be pragmatic if your gut is wrong... He was right.. you only learn this by being a wheeler dealer, getting to the halls and following your nose... Thats the best part of the job imo, nothing like the buzz of buying stock.. Ohh and making the money at the other end

I meet billies at my unit for collection only. That’s why punctuality is important, lateness is just wasting my time.

I'm with you..... When theyve paid, done the docs and then they mention, oh insurance I tell them I have to leave and usher them outside.... Got to be done...

The mrs put the heating on today.... Agreed !! I tell them, I work to a strict schedule so please be punctual....... Ive even said to people before...if you had to pick up a £1m lottery win at 11am you would be on time, so fecking make sure your with me on time.

Apart from middle lane hoggers...... It really really bugs me when people call ( I'm busy ) and they aren't courtious enough to leave a polite voicemail. Its so fecking rude in my book, I always leave a message, its just polite...... And then you get they feckers which'll call you x4 within 10 minutes, what planet are these people on...

Mark, I add value by prepairing the car.........Painting, valeting, freshly MOTing, Servicing and PDIing. Making the car right when it goes out.

Up to 11 so far BTW, every part is into fair wear n tear when it is out of manufacturers warranty.. If the manufacturer won't guarantee it lifespan how the hell can we be liable.
