I been trying to sell some gear on the seabreeze buy and sell. I had many enquiries via text. First of all if you want to know something ring the seller. texting back and forth 15 times is a waste of time. It was apparent from the texts these guys wanted to do things arse-about. A major issue with flea-bay

Secondly, I edited my posts, buy and sell. I will not sell anyone my gear who is an absolute beginner, and wants to "teach" themselves under good concience. This sport which is my passion apart from my daughter is already under threat and beaches are busy. Invest in lessons, a good instructor will save you discovering how safe this sport can be and how potentially dangerous it is. Not just for you but anyone in a 50m half circle around you.

I hope others can do the same. Its not about the cash old gear is cool. Lets all keep the beaches open. Ive sold most gear before really quickly, but not to absolute beginners. Buyer beware, no seller beware.

Nice attempt at getting your gear noticed, but I reckon the dude that flies his kite in the park wins for subtle self exposure!

If you have to text back and forwards 15 times it's your fault for not putting enough info in the ad. nothing wrong with text messages.
