''COMMER'EnSayThat''
 
yes, me!!! I think im more nervous than anyone. I had such dreams of nights away under the stars, camp fires and romantic gettaways when I bought her. I drive her to work when the weather is nice and she ambles accross the countryside and makes me smile. I am very very sad to say that I cant be the one to bring her back to tip top condition, so I wont be sleeping, thats for sure.

Please see my note to Steven, this is a huge warning to all of us trying to buy on ebay:

Steve

I have had a restless night thinking about this, as my advert origionally said, I wanted to change the commer for something which was more up together and needed less work. I have been in discussion with a seller on ebay and had committed to buying a vw camper, which was more money and the reason I was selling the commer ( and my parents were paying the difference bless them). As it turns out, he is a con artist and wanted money through non e bay channells. I do not even know that the van is actually real now. I have had some lengthy discussions with ebay who advised that this is not a legitimate means of sale. I attach the photo of the van and the description for you, so you know that I am not messing you about. Due to this, I am happy for you to come and see the van if you wish to view it. I feel that if I sell the commer with the current financial positon, I may endup with no van and that is not what I want. I shall be looking on a daily basis for another van, in my budget price range but my other half says that realistically, this van which I had my heart set on would not be £4,000 but £8,000 which I could not afford and therefore there is a real risk of not ending up with anything near to what I have.
If you would like to view the van, on the basis that if I find an alternative, that I may contact you and see if you are still interested, then I would be happy to do this. I just do not want to waste your time like this man has mine which has left me feeling physically sick!! I will call you on your mobile as I appreciate that you wont pick this up on time and will talk to you later. Zena

'Buyers' can be as bad. Sold my Previa on ebay the other week only for the 'buyer' to turn out to be a fraud - ebay have binned his account but no doubt he'll just set up a new one.

If I told you I was a pathological liar, would you believe me?

Hey Zena

Don't worry too much (if it was a vw bay that is) my friend sold his reliable early bay for £3500 at the end of last season; a bargain methinks, and you're at the right time of year to pick up something more fairly priced than say at easter

Hi all

Still viewed the Van today on the way Home, Zena is a DIAMOND and so glad she saw the fraudster before it was too late.
I think the Commer Gods were not happy with Zena turning to the Darkside ;)
There is a Commer out there waiting for me, it's just off my radar at the moment though.
:D
 
Hi Zena

Sad to hear your selling your van, If you change your mind i'm sure there will be lots of help throught the forum. I hope it all works out well for you

regards,A ndy
 
Hi, not logged on forum for ages - just saving for that commer . Anyhow i know what you mean about being ripped of by vw's - me and the wife saved for ages and bought a bay camper from ebay , but only to find the work that had gone into hiding the faults was un believable! basically the cost to put right would have set usback £8000 min , So basically be very careful when looking for a cheap vw camper, theres people out there selling and making big money out of the fasion of vw's.
Ah well that said , i love your commer .
good luck
 
That's bad[:0] - did you actually buy the thing or spot the bodges before hand.

Yep i bought ! shud av known £1500 was cheap for a low light vw bay window ! sold it for £700 but told the guy everything that was wrong. yere the chap i bought from had actually welded a scellingto chassis around rusted old chassis !! alot of work but ive been told by some vw guys in bussiness that theres loads of crooks about in the volkswagon game . ah well [xx(]
So im running around in a vw t25 pickup at mo - but still keeping a sneaky eye on the commers - great to get one for next summer , our little lad wud luv it !:D
