    Hey Guys,

    I'm meeting someone from adverts to buy a laptop off them. I don't think they want to make the trade in their home, and I want to test the laptop before I buy it. Is there a Cafe in the area with a plug socket that would allow me to sit down for a coffee and check the laptop out?

    I'm sure any cafe would be ok with you plugging a laptop into a socket while you have a coffee - I'm sure they are well used to it, but personally I'd advise against dealing with people selling a laptop who don't want to deal in their own home.

    Met with the woman, was a rather pleasant trade. Some people are wary of inviting strangers to their home, and that's their right. But yeah, I agree, always be skeptical of dodgy trades and don't be afraid to walk away.
