It's been posted up before, funny that no one can be arsed to pay £150 for a shed If they listed it at 99p with no reserve, then perhaps it may shift.....

[electrokid]

Yeah - I figured it might have been mentioned - I found it quite late in the auction. The price is definitely too high for a shed and I have enough of those - a couple of spare grannys are 'enhancing the storage capacity' here

Thats probably been on about 10 times, each time its the same poor advert and price which is £100 too much.

Hes relisted again at £130 in general car section and say,s hes fixed the water leak now.If he was more realistic with the value i would have a go but it looks a sad old lady probably fit only for parts .

[MULLEY]

Sometimes the one's that look rubbish can turn out to be really nice one's, whereas the shiny looks like new, are riddled with issues. If you're interested, why don't you contact the seller & make an offer, they can only refuse.

Hi Mathew,i mailed him on one of the previous times he advertised it but didnt want to budge on price.Richard.

[MULLEY]

Keep trying, & evertime you do, lower your offer, he may take the hint

[richardd1652]

Ive emailed him asking what condition it is in apart from paint been flat but as yet had no reply.richard.

The thing is, if he were to tow it to the weighbridge he'd get that much for it.

I,m sure your right.In 10 years or so we will be looking back and remembering when we huffed and puffed at £130 for complete cars as we do about Gs,Ds and lately Cx prices rocketing.I can remember not that long ago been offered up and running Ds for £200 and thinking it was dear!! I used to be the manager at a scrap yard in my younger years and remember squashing Visa,s which were usually scruffy and cammy and thinking nobody would ever miss these.Time is a wonderful thing.Now i,m trying to save 2 scruffy and cammy Visa,s along with a Bx with hydraulic issues. But i suppose if every old Citroen was saved there would be too many around and there would never be enough value in them to make rescuing one an economically viable or interesting project ?Richard.
