Mattw2018 Not a reliable seller I wouldn't trust buying from him the car looks much worse in reality then the pics seller is asking for a deposit nonrefundable, please don't get fooled see the car first before giving any deposits

This person has no vehicles for sale on this site right now.

Did you lose a deposit to this seller?

He took it off and yes lost my deposit, asked him for at least half of the deposit because I rented a platform and drove 500 km to buy the car but he refused
He told me that would be no refund but I wasn't expecting the car to look so bad

I'm ecouraging people not to deal with such a scam not only with this person

Completely false. This man contacted me and insisted on sending me a deposit to secure my car, asked me to take the ad down and wait a week for him to collect the vehicle.

I agreed to this only on the condition that my listing price was firm, and the deposit would be non refundable, as I would have to remove the ad and turn down several seriously interested buyers. Adrian agreed to all of this. I warned him in advance about the condition of the vehicle and my preference was he not do this and come see the car if it was still for sale. Adrian insisted on securing the car with a deposit, did not request or want additional information. Upon his arrival he tried to offer me half my asking price, tried for over an hour to get the car below my asking price. The problem was the car was listed below 10 grand and attracted a lot of buyers unfamiliar with the car. Adrian claimed he wanted to use it for camping, but he arrived with quite the car hauling rig and a friend who looked like he knew what he was doing. It made me think he wanted to buy and resell my car and was trying to work me to get a better deal. This was very disappointing and I wish I never engaged with this buyer. I am sorry this didnt work out but this buyer completely wasted my time and did not honor our deal.
