It just feels wrong to call you 'VETSEUN' after your magnanimous gesture, so I will say well done Sir, respect.

I recently paid for a Garmin Edge 520 on Gumtree. The man who sold it's name was Hannis Hatting , he never posted it and won't take my calls or respond to messages. All I have is his cell number. It seemed legit at the time but now I'm feeling like a prize dumbass. Please be carefull and lookout for this bastard. His number is : 072 919 7596

Next time use paywithshepard, they organise the courier and make it safe. Granted my experience is even legit people seem a little wary of the shepard service but I'd rather be safe than sorry.

Having read this in the beginning my initial thoughts were " Gumtree scam yet again,and someone fell for it.".But to see all the offers of help flooding in makes me rethink ..there are some really decent people on this platform that will go out of their way to help sometimes,and its rewarding to see that.Well done to all involved..and Easybike are definitely worth supporting too chaps.

I have upgraded my Garmin for the Munga. Ive got a Garmin 500 edge that I replaced. Its like new. You can have it if you want it. Better that somebody uses it than having it lying in a drawer gathering dust.

If you want it, pm me your address and I will send it off tomorrow morning.

WOW! :thumbup:
