One does wonder why you are selling things for £5 . I couldn't be bothered with my time for that amount. I've sold l the occasional thing for £20 cash on collection, and on the day Ive told them I'll leave it outside and could they put the money through the door. That way I don't even have to meet them. I don't like strangers in my house.tonyhender said:Sorry my phone has automatically added annxue in it dictionary. He wouldn't actually leave started touching other stuff for no reason.

Next time have the stuff in the hall by your front door, no need to let them over your threshold let alone into granny's annxue. I sincerely hope you have your home locked down securely, you've let a complete stranger have quite a look round!Seen it all, done it all, can't remember most of it.1

Even more reason not to sell a five pound item on gumtree.tonyhender said:I normally leave it in my porch but these people on gumtree want to test .0 -
How tight are these people on gumtree.
Every single person who contacted me wants to test this item I am selling for £5. I even made YouTube video to show working but they still want to see. I then replied I could drop over and test at your place and I never hear from them again.
I am also selling a game console only and people are asking if the wires included , controllers and how many games??
