I've been trying to sell a bike second hand. I had a guy who seemed interested... but who's stood me up TEN times now. Obviously I'm at home a lot due to the Covid-19 situation but I have other things to do than sit around in the entrance (in case I miss the guy). Today I just spent nearly one hour and a half waiting for him outside my place (in case he struggled to find the address, which was his last excuse). He messaged me to say he was leaving his place 15 minutes after the end of our appointment slot.... then 20 minutes later messaged me to say that he couldn't find the house. He's got the house number, the street, the postcode, I've told him which part of town it lied (naming 'landmarks' such as nearby shops and supermarket). I am really ready to blow a gasket. From his messaging style I got the impression that he's either very young (and I'm really uncomfortable selling anything to a teenager) or special needs (ditto). Maybe that's just his 'style'. Anyway I've messaged him to say I was done wasting my time with him.
I have only had one other buyer, and there is no longer a bike shop in my town. Any idea where I could sell this bike, without having to bump the price down too much, and without too many no-shows?
Thanks in advance, and sorry for the rant!
