EmptyB Posted July 27, 2016 Posted July 27, 2016 The classifieds work great I'm an avid browser ...OK,my request....so in the Seller location it would be so much more informative if the seller specified location a little more detailed ...A province is a large place and all the seller had to do was include an area..Paarl ..Stellenbosch ...Muizemberg. Detailed information is classified....
IH8MUD Posted July 27, 2016 Posted July 27, 2016 It might sound a little crazy but hear me out.You could.If you were interested in an item.I don't know.Maybe.Ask the seller where he lives?Yes you are right. BUTJust saying where the seller is located can remove the following three massages and wasted time. Buyer: "The part looks nice, I am interested, where are you located?"Buyer. Waits a long time for reply, because the seller is doing Munga training ride of 7 hours.Seller: "Hi I am in is place so-and-so"Seller: Waits some time for reply because buyer is out riding with the kidsBuyer: "Thanks, but I am on the other side of this large province and transport for the used narrow-wide chain ring is just not worth it. If the seller just said.Western Cape, Stellenbosch, Die Boord, Saffraan Ave , next to Mediclinc all of this would have been avoided. Little exaggerated but I trust the idea comes across.
Bomberman Posted July 27, 2016 Posted July 27, 2016 Made my day! I really really really really really really like youAnd I want you, do you want me, do you want me, too?I really really really really really really like youAnd I want you, do you want me, do you want me, too?Oh, did I say too much?I'm so in my headWhen we're out of touchI really really really really really really like youAnd I want you, do you want me, do you want me, too? Hahaha
Shebeen Posted July 27, 2016 Posted July 27, 2016 If my location only says Western Cape it does matter. If I advertise something you would like to check out before buying and I live in Murraysburg (Western Cape), you might rethink the potential sale……I've been to murraysburg. only cyclists there are retired pensioners, you don't want their bikes (i bought all the vintage ones of any value already)
dirtypot Posted July 27, 2016 Posted July 27, 2016 kinda sorta reminds of these... This is a scarily accurate representation of our country
popcorn_skollie Posted July 27, 2016 Posted July 27, 2016 Yes you are right. BUTJust saying where the seller is located can remove the following three massages and wasted time.

If the seller just said.Western Cape, Stellenbosch, Die Boord, Saffraan Ave , next to Mediclinc all of this would have been avoided. Little exaggerated but I trust the idea comes across. Fair enough. I understand it can be frustrating. Went through it myself. But that goes without saying for any detail regarding the seller, buyer or details of the item.The site offers fields for both item and seller details and ample space for further description.Despite this sometimes details are simply over looked. If I'm selling a NW chainring I'll say. 104bcd 32 tooth hope blue. Bolts not included. But I forgot about mileage didn't I? So if you're interested in the ring. I guess you'll have to ask. Just how it is.

Eddy Gordo Posted July 27, 2016 Posted July 27, 2016 Nothing to ask where seller located. You can contact via email or msg. Just a matter of waiting patiently. Although I have come across a few that just dont reply and have assumed its sold even though the ad remains for a week or 2 afterwards
scotty Posted July 27, 2016 Posted July 27, 2016 kinda sorta reminds of these...Goes along with this http://www.zanews.co.za/columnists/2016/06/24/capetonians-plan-cexit-before-summer-influx-of-gautengersOrganisers hope for a quick referendum processCAPE TOWN – Inspired by Britain’s Brexit vote, a group of Capetonians calling themselves Better Than Whole (BTW) are campaigning for a Cexit – or Cape Exit – from South Africa.According to BTW spokesperson Stephanie Green, Cape Town would just be better off emotionally without the whole rest of the country to deal with. “Plus we can charge a fortune when they apply for visas for their summer holidays in the Cape”.Cexit already has a trendy website, a meaningful song, and a solid hashtag. BTW are also subtly referencing that the move would help keep those Eastern Cape “refugees” out, but definitely not in a racist way.For the purposes of Cexit, Cape Town obviously includes the wine route and Hermanus, although they remain undecided about the West Coast.

Just how it is. I had a n inquiry on pedals that I am selling. The person asked me "How many hours do they have on them?" There is ZERO chance that 99% of people would put the hours on pedals in an advert! Anyway, I worked it out for them using Garmin Connect and sent them the hours. Km's as well. But it just took them asking to get the response. Nothing wrong with that.

RocknRolla Posted July 27, 2016 Posted July 27, 2016 For 100 zar shipping nationwide, location is really moot. Unless you want to view the item before buying, nothing nicer than a dodgy looking maeeting at the corner petrol station....
RocknRolla Posted July 27, 2016 Posted July 27, 2016 I did however realy realy realy realy enjoy the musical tone of this thread.
Mongoose! Posted July 27, 2016 Posted July 27, 2016 It might sound a little crazy but hear me out.You could.If you were interested in an item.I don't know.Maybe.Ask the seller where he lives? Is your previous avatar for sale?You always have the coolest avatars here on Bikehub
