Strange people on Gumtree.
« on: February 12, 2014, 11:32:36 am »
So I had listed my iPad for sale on Gumtree and had a few response emails including this:


 "Hi wld u consider a swap for my very well kept reptile setup with a rare rankins dragon worth £400? Or a 50" tv?"


WTF is one of those and why would I want one?? :confused: :confused:

How random can you get, I couldn't stop laughing for a while though, haha! Had to politely tell him thanks.. but, no thanks...:laugh:

Anyone else ever been offered a weird swap?

I used to breed reptiles/exotics and Gumtree is saturated with unwanted pets. Mainly because eBay forbids the sale of livestock.
