I love these phone calls, my answer is simple - "You have at least 5 buyers willing to proceed on my car have you? EXCELLENT! - when they buy it I will pay you - NOT £15 registration BUT £50!!! How about that? You cannot POSSIBLY lose, the buyers are there - its your lucky day!"

The phone strangely goes rather silent - then Burrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr off they go .... its great fun playing with them! Try it!
