Proceed with caution with that seller. He came to my house a few weeks ago, to buy a couple bikes. We settled on a price for two bikes he wanted, but he didn't have enough cash and wanted to give me a personal check, and was very insistent that I take it. Several times I said no, cash only.
He asked where a bank was and I told him, and he left to go to the ATM.
5 minutes later, (not enough time had passed for him to get to the bank) he texts me and says, and I quote, "I couldn't find a bank you should've took my check I think I'm just gonna hold off"
I replied "wow, it's only a couple minutes down the road. But whatever."
AGAIN he says "You should've took my check"
and just before blocking his number I replied "you should've brought cash"
Smells like a scam to me. Had a gut feeling that he would've cancelled the check as soon as he left. Blocked his number on my phone and blocked him on FB too. Don't know if he's on CABE or not, but I'll block him here too if he is.
