  • sold used motorcycle buyer now askign for a refund

    Hi There,

    Please could someone help me, I sold a motorcycle on the 24th of may 2017, The gentleman turned up paid cash and rode the motorcycle away, When selling the bike he signed a documents to say the bike was "sold as seen with no guarantees" Well on the 04/07/2017 he contacted me to say the bike had gone wrong and he wanted a refund!

    I panicked at the time and said I was going to contact a solicitor, I wasn't ever going to do this but more look up legal advise. I have seen that as a private sale he is not entitled to a refund, I have now advised them of this but they are now asking for the letter from my solicitor (which I clearly don't have)

    First of all can anyone confirm I am within my rights to refuse a refund? Also can anyone tell me where I can get a legal letter for free so that I can send them on to the buyer to cover my back side?

    Oops did you tell him you had a letter from your solicitor ? Sounds like he rightly thinks you are bluffing lol. Ahh well, he's trying it on anyway so don't worry.

    What's he saying has ''gone wrong'' with the bike ?

    Have you a copy of the document you got him to sign before he took the bike you can scan in ? ( remove name/signature/reg number etc )

    Did you sell it through a News ad or auction type website ?

      You are correct.
      The buyer saw the bike and examined it prior to purchase.
      As it was a private sale he has no recourse against you as the seller, assuming you told no untruths.

      Even if you had received written advice from a solicitor, he would have no right to see that letter, so just tell him "no sight of letter, no refund, stop harassing me"
