Hi Folks,

What do you think about people who sell computer equipment on gumtree, which isn't the spec they adverizise?

It drives me mad, I went to surbiton to purchase a p3 found it to be a tiney computer not the compaq advertized, theses people need to be stoned, what do you guys think, please get back to me if this has happened to you.

Thanks

[quote="mariad"]Hi Folks,

Do you hate it when people try to sell you something that it isn't?
either a mobile phone or computer equipment, something they don't even know the real spec on.

Lets hear your stories!!!!

The only way to stop these people is to report them to Trading Standards and report suspicious ads from wannabes or freelancers.

The gumtree terms & conds states that all ads for business services have to be placed by registered businesses only! Report the fraudsters!!

Did you ask for a picture first? That usually is better you can guage if it is really what you're looking for. Digital cameras are so cheap these days......
