Well done! Curious... he's paid you £400, and at a later date he's going to pay the balance and then you'll post them?

I didn't see why you would need to know.Fred Smith said:I said in the post, I am curious! Most people pay cash on collection or they pay by paypal or something and then expect the item to be posted. It seems a bit weird to take a deposit for something that is to be posted.enuff_zed said:Why?

On reflection "delivered" and "posted" can mean different things so presumably (but I might be wrong) OP has taken some money by bank transfer and the balance will be paid when OP delivers in person.
A question for you. Why did you not just accept that when I said "curious..." the reason for me asking was because I was curious?

Oh well, it was fun while it lasted. Byeee.Fred Smith said:Perhaps it would be best if you did your best to ignore me on here and I will do the same?

I didn't need to know. Had I needed to know I would have said something like "I know this is really weird, but I NEED TO KNOW..." But I didn;t need to know, so I said "I'm curious..."

At its best this forum is just brilliant, great knowledge, shared freely and very welcoming to new members/less knowledgeable.

Just quoting for posterity and then I really will try not to respond to you again.
Thanks for your concern mate but I’m not stupid. He’s arranged his own courier and I’ve made it very clear the wheels will not be leaving my house without full payment.

Thanks! I was just curious, that's all. You certainly don't owe me an explanation.Rickmitch93 said:Thanks for your concern mate but I’m not stupid.
