For Sale: Mint condition O2 Joggler - £45 delivered

[reddwarf]

Only had it a few weeks (bought on a whim for a music project) but I have since discovered the Raspberry Pi and XBMC and the Joggler is no longer getting a look in. Have decided to sell it as I know it will lie in a drawer and I would like it to go to a new home .
The Joggler is boxed in MINT condition and comes with charger and ethernet cable. I have updated it to the latest OpenPeak firmware including PnP III.
I am willing to sell this for £45 delivered (what I paid for it). Payment by PPG.
UK bidders only please.
I excellent feedback on both ebay (redwarfiscool) and HotUK (redwarfiscool) if you want to verify my details before sale, etc.
Any question PM me.
I will upload / email photos if requested.

Hi. I would like to buy this. I'll be honest and say I was almost stiffed on here not so long ago so I'm a bit cautious - no offence at all intended towards you. What is payment by PPG? Thanks

It is intended as a present - would this make a Christmas deadline?

[reddwarf]

Hi,
PPG = PayPal Gift which means that neither you or I incur PP charges, but it also means that PP will not provide cover if an issue arose.
When you select payment in PP it defaults to 'Purchase' but you can change this by selecting 'Personal', which allows you to send a PPG.
I have no intention of ripping you off and I am totally with you on being cautious as I am a new member.
I can post the Joggler tomorrow 1st class post so it should reach you at some stage this week. It would make an excellent Christmas present.
I bought the Joggler off HotUKDeals in this thread for £45 - it's in excellent condition.

As you are a long term member on this forum how about I meet you halfway - if you send half the payment up front I will post it tomorrow and when you receive it you can pay the outstanding amount in full? I can send you a photo tonight with my name and date beside the Joggler to show you I have it in my possession. I will also send you a copy of proof of postage after I post it tomorrow?

Hi. First, thanks for being so understanding and not getting offended.

Yes - I would like to buy this from you and make you jump through all the hoops you've kindly offered (even if it sounds like we are arranging the exchange of ransom for a kidnapping).

Thanks also for the link to hotdeals with details of it's condition. Have to say, you're a great haggler. It's a skill I've never been able to master so I'm really rather jealous.

If you pm me the photo and your details we can get the ball rolling.

Thanks again.

[reddwarf]

Hi,
Great. I will PM you about 9pm'ish tonight with photos and contact details, etc.
LOL - Been on HotUK for years - you get used to the haggling and I've read many's a thread where deals hang on the balance of 50p .
Meeting halfway is how most newcomers deal on HotUKdeals. You should sign up to HotUK (if not a member already) - good resource for 2nd-hand material and I have bought and sold stuff on there. Also, it's very good for the deals which helped me get the kids their 7" Samsung Tablets for Christmas with cashback and a free 8gb card . Well pleased.

With this Joggler the seller said it was only used once or twice and by the looks of it she is right. I used it for about 3 nights until I discovered the Raspberry Pi and XBMC. You will be pleased with the condition and I will make sure it is wrapped up like Fort Knox .

Next time I buy a car I'm going to get you to come with me!!!

Great bargaining

[reddwarf]

LOL - cheers for that .
Now passing the 'bargain' on to ilovemyjoggler!
Got to admit, I think this forum has done wonders for the Joggler - It was great to see PnPIII, SqueezePlay, XBMC & Android running on it. Well done to the devs!
Have moved on to the Pi with Openelec (XBMC) - it's going great guns and that will do me and the kids nicely

PM sent.

off topic a bit but this is the first time I've ever scrolled down to the bottom of the email generated by the forum when a pm is received. Made me laugh quite a bit as the signature is 'The Management'. Weren't they the bouncer characters created by Hale and Pace eons ago?

[reddwarf]

Replied to your PM.
You are going back a bit there but yes, Hale and Pace were known as the Management . Good show in its day too.

I was quite young then so don't remember too much. But I do remember that bit. Although I did have to look up the comedy duo's names!

I have sent another PM.

[reddwarf]

Payment still not received?

[ilovemyjoggler]

I'm so sorry - I've been incommunicado all morning.

I've paid the first installment. Hopefully you should have received confirmation from Paypal by now. Don't worry if you've missed today's posting deadline. It's my fault.

Thank you for agreeing to split the Paypal fee. They say on their site that if the gifted money is coming directly from a debit card then there is a small fee. I never have a paypal balance - straight in; straight out! I guess this is good to know for the future though.

Thanks again!

Btw...if anyone wonders why I didn't send this as a pm it's because I thought the bit about the fees might be of interest.

[reddwarf]

Payment received. Thank you.
Package just posted 1st class so should reach you tomorrow or Thurs.
I will email you a copy of proof of postage tonight.
I never knew that about PP fees either when paying from a card - so thanks for letting me (and everyone) know.
Can you let me know when you receive the Joggler so that we can settle the balance

[ilovemyjoggler]

Posted already? Wow, thank you - much appreciated!
I'll let you know and settle up as soon as it arrives.

[reddwarf]

Proof of postage sent via email

[ilovemyjoggler]

Reddwarf,

One joggler in mint condition arrived safely. Balance has been sent (minus the paypal fee). Feel free to bin the proof of postage.

Thank you very much - it will be going to a loving home (mine, to be precise as it's a gift for my SO!)

Pleasure doing business with you. Thank you!

[reddwarf]

Good to hear it arrived safely and I am glad you are pleased with the condition.
I can confirm, o/s payment has been received - thanks
Good to have done business with you too - a result for the both of us
