I sold a Vitesse petrol tank on EBay and the buyer didn’t collect for a month when I chased him he changed his mind and I had to refund. Paul I'm not sure that doing that is strictly ethical as a contract exists at the end of an auction/buy it now, just like in a traditional auction house, but hey ho. Distance selling laws may have some effect on contracts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeffds1360 Posted April 26, 2021 Author Report Share Posted April 26, 2021 Sorted ! He found the blue TR6 one and held his hands up. He says 'someone' told him it was Herald. He is going to re-advertise it if any TR6 boys are interested? Got the money back. He put it down a 'purchaser cancelled order'. Hope that does not affect my credibility on Ebay!!?? Will start searching again when I have finished the Sunday lunch dishes.... about 4 or 5 hours I'll have a think about Rogers too. What weight are these things?

Hope that does not affect my credibility on Ebay!!?? That's quite sneaky of him. It should go under: "item was misdescribed." It means he's got a clean sheet and it's seemingly your fault the sale didn't go through. Seems he already has previous for the same: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeffds1360 Posted April 26, 2021 Author Report Share Posted April 26, 2021 I'll look into that. I did however get the full amount straight back (Pay Pal) so I'm not bothered. Should have checked his feedback Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeffds1360 Posted April 26, 2021 Author Report Share Posted April 26, 2021 (edited) Absolutely. Worth the club fees in one shot. I will be posting a praising when I get these dishes finished!

Badwolf Posted April 26, 2021 Report Share Posted April 26, 2021 I don't think so. He's not done his research. There are four others, two due to finish today. The two up today are currently £128 (one bid) and £49.99 or best offer (no bids), both have glass. The red Lenham is a buy it now at £110 with 43 watchers. I think I must be reading this all wrong or 'your' guy is a banker (sic) It's also listed as a Triumph Herald TR6 Hardtop. Must fit some weird cut and shut restoration. He still can't spell Triumph (Triamph) in the description either. Words fail me...for once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of people refer to our cars as Triumph Herald Vitesse or Triumph Vitesse Herald as if the Vitesse is a version or variation of the Herald, so he probably doesn't know his Triumphs as well as we do. As for spelling... Well I did once buy a Trumiph Herlad... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
