Lay away purchase


Got an interesting question from a member (on another well known auction site) that I've never seen before. This person has 100% good feedback there and more buying than selling.

"...if i could make payments to you on this, there's just no way I could aford this all at once. if for any reason I had to back out , I would forfit all money paid to date and you keep the machine, I've never let any one down yet and I buy this way a lot. I could pay as much as 250.00 a month"

It would take 7-8 months to be paid up. I don't mind the wait but not sure how to go about it and if there could be any repercussions to me.

If you don't mind the wait then what's the worry? It's not like you're going to send it to him until you're paid. I would promise to hold onto it boxed and in a safe place. If something happens to it refund the money. If you're seeing money go into your account each month I guess don't understand the problem. My dealer does it. Tell him he can't be late on a payment because you want it gone in 8 months. You'll make very little but some interest of the money. How do you think payroll companies make money? Interest off other people's money.
