Seriously like can’t we leave our house at 11pm and meet strangers in a car park anymore?
probably given an offer that was way too good to lure him out. Deals can go bad at any time, my worst deals was someone saying they wanted a boxing stand for $60 but I wanted $70. They gave me the money folded and after they were long gone, I saw that I got $60. It's not the amount, but the fact that he was smiling the whole time. His kid was there was well… There was also a person selling a car, who basically "roid raged" after I used the handbrake in the car at low speed and it went loose. After the test drive, he reset it (showing that he knew about it) and told me to go away basically. I had $2k on me to buy the car…
Why would anyone be interested in electrical goods at 11pm? And most times online you have a fair idea of who you are meeting!!i have bought and sold things online but i have always been simply given an address please who goes to an empty shopping center car park at almost midnight and i am ex boxer but if someone was to come at my car with a hammer i would have been out of there.
Yeah I overheard someone talking about this new thing called a "Q" apparently helps you relax….but I'm just a silly old bugger so didn't quite catch it all…lol
Keywords in this story. Lured, electrical goods, 11pm. Wink, wink. It must have been a hell of story to convince the victim out of their home at 11pm. As desperate one is to sell or even buy an item it's not worth risking life and limb in a deserted carpark at 11pm.

Buying anything at 11:00pm in a car park is a huge red flag and a recipe for disaster.

This is why i won't buy or sell stuff from strangers online. I think the suggested initiative is a sound idea.

At 11pm I’m tucked up in my comfy bed, not out at a shopping centre carpark meeting people I don’t know. OMG people these days are so silly 🤪
Just do it inside maccas, or outside a police station near the CCTV.
Drug deal gone wrong
Cash me outside?
I'm a big buyer and seller but no deals after dark is my not so common sense
Yes this is necessary.
It's not good for anyone to be assaulted…..bright spark 😁
Only fucken cowardly junkie grubs would do something like that.
I am betting the electrical goods came in a small plastic bag
Description of the alleged offenders?
Drug deal gone wrong
Meet out front of the cop station or in Mc chucks
