I would walk away aswell.

surely once a price has been agreed then that seals the deal.

For clarity… I suggested telling him it was worth £500 to F@@k over the scumbag that’s tried to gazump you.

IMHO it’s not worth any more than £50 as seen.

Ich auch. Mein Kumpel schickt mir Bier und Schokolade. Ich kann natürlich nur für mich selbst sprechen.

unless the other potential purchaser is on this site and has read this thread, then he's unlikely to realise the state of play - or will think that he's got in there early. I'd reserve my ire for the seller.

+1 seller is a untrustworthy chap.

You've made a deal and if he won't honor it then he's a twunt, so tell him where he can stick his £20 bike.

If it was something special and you were taking advantage then I could understand (a little). On eBay with a postage option and decent photos it might make a chunk more, but it's not soooo...

I called in sick to go and pick a bargain up off Gumtree a while back after the seller told me he'd had lots of interest, still, it was worth it

And thirded, pull out, move on.

hmmmmmmm. mayyybe. depends whether seller had said "I accept yr offer, it's sold to you provided you complete within xx days" or whether he'd said "I'll hold it until a better offer comes, at which point I'll let you know".

Contractually, the purchase is not made until.....

Caveat: At the end of the day, if you dont like the face that stares back at you from yr bathroom mirror then you need to take yourself for a good hard head wobble. That is my bottom line.

one of my favourite words. It should be used with caution, but more frequently!
