Well I'm selling a set of rims and tires right now on kijiji and it's been fun. I've had about 5 guys for wheels, 5 for tires assure me they will buy and settle on a price then no-show. I don't mind holding something for someone and all I've asked for was a heads up if they changed their mind.......nope.

Rims finally sold and a guy's coming for the tires tonight........:rolleyes:

I sold 2 - $45k trucks last year and dealt with about 2% of the BS these tires are costing me.

if you wanted them that bad why not go and get them, the kid asked for $200. can't be any money in deal that he has to deliver. me thinks the kid got his money and didn't have to go find you. good for him, cry me a river.

so true medler! We took a chq for a small amount of money (not toy) related to find out that it was no good and the guy was not to be found. Makes one leary of people they don't know...sad really :) I agree on the if you say you will hold it..hold it.


On a brighter note:

Merry Christmas everyone :)

I always insist on cash only, hate trying to sell stuff on kijiji, seldom do the people actually show up. actually took my suburban to Edmonton to meet a guy who said he couldn't come look at it in Lloydminster cause he was injured at work and he never showed up and i never heard from him again. that was a waste of a whole day

Kijiji is not the most reputable market place. You are dealing with some of society's finest and kijiji is also a scammers paradise. Buyer and seller beware.
