baw 4,360 Posted June 8, 2013 Report Share Posted June 8, 2013 If you offered something for sale for £20 in the local paper and then you decided it was worth more or you didn't want to sell it then surely it's your prerogative to change your mind and not sell? Cheers. Gaz. Well that would only be a matter of if anyone called to say its been sold But If i agreed £20 with some and found out later it's worth double, then that would be my tough luck for not researching the item I had. As I would have tied myself into a verbal agreement and that's the problem these day people not sticking to their word. I had an air rifle and told a chap I know 30 so be said yeah I'll have it pick it up in a few days and I hadn't taken all the ads down and in the mean time I had another 2 / 3 people ask offering 40 - 60 but I told them it gone for the simple reason it's not right thing to do IMO I'll give you £70 for it?Sold ill just have to tell him I miss placed it or it got pinched Quote Link to post Share on other sites

blackdug 90 Posted June 8, 2013 Report Share Posted June 8, 2013 Your prob right mate, just doesn't sit right. I've got a mate works in a large supermarket. Head office electronically change the prices for the shops. He says they f**k up regular, selling steak for example for 49p instead of £4.90. The get wind of the f**k up and buy it before they catch on lol. Fuckall to do with this but thought I'd share with you anyway .......asda had a feck up about a month ago and I got big bags of bakers dog biscuits for a couple of quid each ...it was the checkout girl that noticed it when she was scanning it through and she was the one that said a deal is a deal and put it through at the reduced price ....moneysaving expertForum has a whole section on what feck up to look out for in the shops and Internet Quote Link to post Share on other sites
