[QUOTE="rocketaroo, post: 145050, member: 4395"] Two things flag this add as sus. The member registered in 2015.... Thats a red flag. His description is a cut and paste....not a red flag, but not a good thing either. I assumed you paid by bank transfer...massive red flag!....never ever do that on gumtree, or ebay. If you paid by paypal, you can prob get your money back. Gumtree is only for inspecting, and paying in person. Same goes for forum trades, do your homework, and ask around....send a PM to a longtime member, and look at sellerd post history. I have seen people scammed on forums :( Sorry this happened to you.
