Welcome Dan clad you joined, did you manage to pick it up?

No, my 1 year old boy has a kidney condition & has been tested positive with Covid so couldn't risk the trip. I offered a deposit to keep it until next weekend but he said he has somebody else that wants to look at it Tuesday. I just hope they dont buy it now. 😭

Sorry to hear that Dan, hope your lad gets better soon, everything else can wait.

That's not very considerate of the seller, given the health concerns you've expressed.

If you’ve already viewed it and 100% want it, I’d just pay in full and pick it up later, but I’m very trusting!

The problem is there are soo many time wasters out there using all sorts of excuses it's hard as a seller to know exactly who is genuine and who isn't. (not implying anything here to the OP) 

 

Although on the flip side selling kits has always been painless. Once I was paid in full while the buyer sorted out collection and the other I was paid 50% deposit to hold the car for a week until the buyer could get to see it.

I sold my Lotus and the buyer paid 100% prior to even viewing it. He flew in from IOM and I picked him up from the airport.

That was a few years back, but as others have said, if you want it and have seen it offer to pay in full the mutually agreed price. Most sellers would hold the car for a week, it’s not asking much imo.

Im not a timewaster though, I sent him a screenshot of the text from NHS showing my boys results. He said he'd keep it for me it so I offered him a deposit to be certain I'm not a timewaster. Everything happens for a reason I suppose.
