A true story reflecting life as a guitar seller…..some paraphrasing has taken place to simplify things.
Monday.....
"Hi, do you still have this guitar?
What payment methods do you take and can I trade in some guitars? Thanks"
Hi
You can buy on my website (that's linked in the ad) or I can give you bank details to pay direct (as explained in the ad). If you want to part ex, send me the details of what you have and I'll take a look (because without that information I can't really do a lot.....)
Tuesday......
Anything else I can help you with?
"I may have to wait until April.....do you take credit cards?"
Through the website you can pay with any major credit card or PayPal
"Ok thanks. I'll send pics of the guitar I want to part ex"
Wednesday.......
"I have this crappy guitar and this other crappy guitar" (no pics)
Ok. Any idea how much you want back on them? And how are you paying the remaining balance?
"About £600 and I'll pay the balance on credit card"
Guita is £1550. I could do a deal at £1000 plus your guitars.
"£950"
Do you have cases with them (I've still seen no pics) and are you collecting or am I shipping
"No cases, I'll collect "
Ok. Let's do it.
But if you could send me some pics of your guitars first. Mostly any damage etc.
Thursday.......
"My wife won't let me buy a new guitar.......sorry"
