Totally agree with Billy , Sid , Spidey , ......

No point beating around the bush so I'll just say ' At best you were being underhand' and can't believe you have got the cheek to bleat 'Bloody Ebay'

i was not being underhand i didn't tick the box saying the V5 was present. and when i got asked the questions i thought i did but i messed up,

anyway the guy picked it up yesterday and was still very happy, i was going to reapply for a new V5 so i could sell it, but then i needed to sell it quickly because i needed the money. as for my naming of this topic i was orignally moaning at the "underhandness" of the buyer and insted of phoning me about the situation he sent me a sneaky e-mail even though i gave him my phone number for him to call me if he had any problems, by law he has still brought the item and the item was not incorrectly discribed so by law he has to buy it, and if he still refused i would of sued him for the money.

and you have to remember this isn't a £2000 sv i was selling it was a £200 project bike that wasn't running. and if i had brought a £2000 sv i would expect there to be a V5 but a project bike i would not of presumed it had any espically if the box saying V5 Present had not been ticked.

its over people go home!!

how on earth is it underhanded of him to use a valid form of speedy communication, and a free one at that, as opposed to your prefered method? How one sided is your view???

I really think you ought to consider your attitude to selling stuff as other future buyers may well take up your offer of a day in court.... and you may find yourself paying a lot of legal fees.

I dont think you would have stood a chance of getting any money from him thru the courts as you had failed to provide information material to his ability to buy from you.
Wether its £2k or £20 the point is that a lot of people would rather know the thing they are buying is being sold legaly.
What if he put the project together and made it road worthy and when he went to register it found out the frame and other components are on a batabase of items that have been reported as stolen to the police.

Selfish, me me me attitude you got there if you want my honest opinion mate. Like i say i hope this is a leasson for the future.
