SOLD AN ITEM ON SCOOBYNET AND IT WENT RIGHT :D
Well, we have had so many Threads where sales have gone bad 
I thought it was time to post a sale gone good, it's not all doom and gloom
I was selling a pair of Bugeye Barge board fog lamp covers for a mate. (just before Christmas so post could be bad)
Monday evening
A guy emailed me to buy them and we swopped Mobile No's
Tuesday
A chap from Ireland rang me and we agree a Price and swapped addresses.
He agreed to send a cheque and i agreed to send the Parcel.
Wednesday
I packed and got it sent of Special delivery
Friday
He texted me he'd recieved it
Saturday
I recieved the Cheque
Monday
he sent some Picture with them fitted
Friday
my mate said the cheque had cleared

I've done a few deals on Scoobynet now and everything has always been as stated with good quick delivery. Its just a shame that there are a few a holes about that mess things up for other people. May they burn in hell!

i've bought and sold a few things on here with no problems, i sold a set of prodrive springs and the guy said he'll pay by check, no problem he messaged to say he'd posted it. he came across well in his messages and had a fair bit of history/posts on here, all he said was could i post as soon as check cleared as he was hoping to get them on for an event he was attending, i told him i'd trust him and sent them straight away. Check cleared and he got his springs

I bought a set of wheels from a user called steviewrx. Collected them in person (6 hour round trip). They were as decribed and it was a pleasant transaction. Gave him my mobile number by pm as it could have been anyold crook he was inviting round to the family home. Trust is very important and most people are on the level. A few do spoil it for others though.

That's a really nice looking bug, can you tell me exactly what the front end mods are please?
I want mine to look just like that (apart from the girly pink badge)

You sent an item before you received a cheque?? Normally peeps wait until the cheque has cleared before they send the item
you must be a very trustworthy person

Plus you've got a bit of personal info on a cheque, that matched up to his postal address and his name he'd used.

as i said sales have to work on trust "will he send a dud cheque "
"Will he bank the cheque and not send the Part"
With delays in Postage or bank clearing the whole Transaction could have taken 3 weeks
he was happy in 3 days my mate was happy in 10 days

I bought a Scoob from a fellow Scoobynetter and despite me paying for it via CHAPS the payment didn't clear into his account (he lives in Oz) but he still let me pick the car up
That warmed the cockles of my heart and was a very decent and trusting thing to do
Big thanks once again to Funkii Munkii
BTW the payment did actually clear but it took a few days
