    Your best bet is to contact the owners of the site directly as they will give you all the info you need.

    Hi,

    Be very careful that this is what you want before you part with your cash. There is a lot of price fixing going on here and activity veering towards criminality. I have been one of the unlucky one who has been unfortunate to loose out quite badly. When I bought my mobile a couple of years ago, I was told by site owner that I could sell again if I needed to (but through him). I found myself in a position when I could no longer pay out 1600 euro site fees (a huge amount of money in these times). I found a buyer and approached the owner. First he said transfer fees would be 2000 euro which I thought was heavy but agreed to pay. Then he said It could only be sold offsite to take away as it was too old for his site (we were 2 years into the 7 years that he said it should be o.k. for). I asked him my options. He said:
    He could place it in his yard
    He said he would see find a trader to take it off me

    The day prior to the renewal contract a trader rang me up who said the site owner had asked to look at my mobile. He offered me 450 euro (I had been offered 4000 by people who wished to purchase and keep on site). I had no option but to take this.

    Just to warn people about this. I was also given the wrong information about the mobile I bought. The receipt indicates the wrong year etc. The site owner gave me misinformation about terms and conditions and I did not get a contract. The owners help each other out by buying mobile (like mine) off each other at a very low price. Don't be a fool like me and get caught.
