Has anyone heard of Wisematch?? we are advertising a mini through mini world and Wisematch rang yesterday and said that they had two people interested in buying the mini and all we had to do was pay a £90 fee which we would get back if the buyer paid us through their finance!! She assured us that we would get a phonecall last night after 6pm form one of the interested parties to come and look at it!! She made it seem that it was as good as sold!!! Guess what - ten pm came and no phonecall!!! Have we been conned?? :mad:

    You most certainly have! These "agencies" are rife. Someone here offered to pay ten times the fee after the sale and they point blank refused.
