Buying from gumtree...
 
Hola all...

I am currently looking to buy a set of golf clubs and have found a great set on gumtree.

Having never dealt with gumtree before im just after some info.

Obviously there is no binding contract like on ebay, so if i send payment and he doesnt send the item, then what? I would be paying through PayPal so im guessing I could go through them and get my payment back?

Thanks!

Stu

Afraid im not a callaway man but thank you anyway! Im after some Mizuno MP-33 irons, always wanted some so decided to go for it. Went to 'buy it now' on ebay earlier and just as i was about to hit the button someone else did! GUTTED!

Gumtree, I would always go pick up in person and check out.

Its just a classified Ad after all.

I dont think paypal guarantees apply outside ebay - at least not on this kind of thing.

You are now covered outside ebay, just don't use paypal gift as this is not covered. If he insists on gift or bank transfer don't buy as there is a lot of scams on gumtree.

Hmmm -zuno's eh - good choice the 33 are a good club - shame I just can't play for toffee - but you got to get the perks sometime.
I'll admit never had prob's with Gumtree though I've always paid cash on collection
