JohnnyBravo let me get this straight now, you posted a thread about your experience with time wasting people that didnt buy your phone, fair enough, eventually you got responses from people related to your topic, fair enough, then what you witnessed was a minor "hijack" to the thread, which is fairly NORMAL if you've been on QL long enough. Stop effing crying about it now and MOVE ON!

U r free to comment\respond sir

but the responses must be relevant....to some extent atleast....

please correct me if I am wrong

When a thread is posted, the OP should bear in mind that he is not the only one to comment in his thread and should be ready to get responses for everyone....whether he likes it or NOT !

LOL BROS! please dont fight over me..there's enough of smoke to go around for everyone :)

Timebandit....

if you think this forum is quite uninteresting,then what made you come and read all the comments.

and what made you judge my authoratative nature :)

Well Bro, considering you are sad enough to post such a mundane and uninteresting topic, I am really surprised you are such an authority on forums. This thread was about as interesting as the one when I posted that I had changed my socks until the banter injected by others made it worth reading.

What are you going to post today, someone called you and hung up?

Give respect to Humans irrespective of their nationality or origin bro....

Alas! Wikileaks you should have leaked that bit of wisdom a few posts ago. What good will it do me now :P

Chill....

It does you no good to resort to such things .... :o(

You made me laugh heartily with your witty comments.

So far I was reading heheeeeee, but never thought you have such good IQ.

johnny bravo, hhhaayyy whats up hot sweet mama..LOL.how about we settle for a 250 instead of a 500.We meet half way huh.LOL

LOL TB, she made me lol too.....:)

OMG Lucy just made me laugh

LOOL smokey !

Poor Lucy darling is sharing her view here and u clumsy KAt- scaring her ? :(

Go jump in a drainage hole...:)

She posted an advertisement on QL that they are moving out fast due to personal reasons and sold few goods to simple and humble behaving mallu couple.Now after looting them for good amount they bought new furniture for themselves.Whenever she needs to sale off something old she gives an ad that they are moving out.But how come they cant give simple ad that they want to sale out the thing straight away...

if i use the same logic as you had came up with, then you should not go to the shopping malls, unless you want to buy something. only real spenders can go to the malls. this way, we can free up the car park lots. even a simple business transaction you cannot understand. in my opinion having you in this country is a waste of time.

Spot On...I have also seen some adverts selling crap for more than the price of original (crap).

I will do this next time InshaAllah,like telling the Time Waster that I already have an offer greater than yours...

Ipad 2 are the IN THING right now...check out the ridiculous prices posted. On the other hand ipads are become cheaper :P

I have noticed a couple of adverts. for cameras and the prices posted are more than the brand new ones in LULU.

I am always amused by the term "Serious Buyers Only"

Those , like your culprit will still turn up, hoping to beat the price down.

Please Please MERCY - don't remind me about the time I tried to sell my car. Horrendous. Never EVER again

Good point, if you went to a shop for this mobile there is no reason for you to start chasing these customers down.

Indeed. It wasn't the only one. Usually if someone calls you and starts saying "My friend..." or " I am having to come from Wakra / Al Khor / long way away" or "You must make a consideration on your price" is about time to politely make your excuses and hang up.

Patience as ever is a virtue.

I have an idea which I tried. If you are getting calls tell them that "you already have two offers (20 riyals less or the maximum you can reduce) who will be coming to you in an hour or two and if he is interested to get at the offer price come before them or you will call one of them and sell it". If that person is interested in your offer will come to you soon.

I think we've all been there done that, sometimes i put the price 200 more than the amount i'm expecting so that when they bargain we settle on same amount i want or close to it.

You can always tell the time wasters apart from the genuine buyers, if they make YOU call them up for something they want to buy just dont entertain them. Never show you are desperate to sell coz they can sense that and will try to take advantage.

Sometimes they give you talks that so and so person posted the same item for 300 bucks less than what i'm selling, i tell them to go and buy it from that person instead. :P

Rightly said..In my case....25% of the mistake was mine I admit...but I feel sorry for QATARKIWI..he really had a very bad experience

never Mind..but that nerd must have promised to his family to give them a ride on a 85K vehicle:)

He was quite near to my residence...But As soon as I finished with him,I got another call..That guy too wanted me to come to his place..But I already had learned my lesson by then :)

Next time do the negotiation over the phone, make the buyer come to YOU, If you are not satisfied with the offer you are not obligated to sell. Simple.

Absolutely. Had the same issue with selling my car. Put the price on at 85k and had someone very interested wanting to meet at Villaggio. Turns up with whole family in tow, take it for a test drive and kicks tyres etc. Then says after almost an hour that he will take if for 60k cash as this was what the car was worth in his opinion. After resisting the urge to beat him politely refused his offer. Sold the car two days later for QAR83500. Sad as it sounds, for some people who phoned I just said that it was sold as the phone rang off the hook for three days solid. I still get calls now almost 12 months later even though I removed the ad.

Tell them to come to your place. Would a chop go out somewhere to sell? No. So why should you.

to avoid such people....NEVER sell your Mobiles ! :)
