Make sure you have enough details about him, in case you get ass-raped.

Just talk with him for a bit, if not ignore it. Maybe he's just keen to buy the product.

I'm 90% sure he probably wants to steal the bike. Last year I had a buyer come to me for my YZ426, He was literally there 2 mins then said he wasn't interested so I didn't think anything of it. (Baring in mind at this point I hadn't locked the garage I just shut the door and came inside as he had already gone), 2 mins later I heard a bike that sounded exactly like my bike so I ran outside quickly to see him flying down the road on it! My bike was never seen again, £3300 down the drain.

Don't send your address, in South Yorkshire the amount of calls that we get about people that's been burgled after giving people their address on gumtree is unreal, arrange to meet half way in a public area where theirs plenty of CCTV, just incase It does go wrong then the police are able to track the car or transport they came in and hopefully catch them.

I would just ignore him. I do a lot of buying/selling/trading on site like this (eg: craiglist). Don't worry you will get a legit buyer.

That is weird lmao.

Just give him an email or mobile numbe he can contact you on. Or give him your town/city

Did he not give any questions about buying


Nope non at all imo all i gave him is my town and he hasent responded since im a bit creeped out RN


Your parents obviously didn't teach you anything about the Internet. I blame them.
Your parents must have done REALLY good considering you're shit talking over the internet for no reason.
