It was sold for £542. Far more than I could afford, but hey ho!

I PM'd Paul in the hope that a good deal could be struck between him and another fellow genuine folkie festival-goer to negotiate a fair price but it appears that the caravan is now in the hands of his son who was supposed to email me back, but never bothered to, and was just after the fattest, greediest, price he could get.

Anyway, I guess that's life!

What I don't like is the fact that Paul started this thread as the seller when he wasn't the actual seller after all. So in my PM to him I was just wasting my breath.

Also, why put a commercial sale on Mudcat aimed at fellow folkies when the actual sale was nothing to do with him or folkies at all and his posting led you to the biggest commercial site on the ruddy planet - EBAY !!

Also, isn't there something against the 'trade description' act when a product described as a "Cheap caravan - great for festivals" actually then goes on to achieve one of the highest sale prices on ebay for a caravan of that age and condition.

I guess that what I am trying to say is that people selling things should not appear, or be allowed to post on Mudcat, at all. Period.
It can taint the site and bring it into disrepute and the Mudcat police should not allow it especially when it is under fase pretences.

I rest my case.

Disgruntled.
