Am i being conned? Smartnav sale

[davidandrews]

I am wanting to sell a
SmartNav with TouchScreen by Traffic Master

I know nothing about them and am worried that i could give out info which could be used elsewhere

the buyer is wanting URN or Sim numbers from me, Should i give these out?

My units are brand new and boxed and have these numbers with a bar code, but is it wise to just hand them out so they can be "checked out" as the buyer is demanding.....


also is £450 a fair price for both the unit and the touchscreen?? thanks for any help!

I dont think I would want to give any of these details out over the internet like this. I dont know what use they would be to the buyer or if there would be a problem if you did so. But I would want to know why the buyer wants them. Seems a bit suspicious to me.

And, £450 sounds reasonable to me.

HI There
Thanks! He says he wants to "check them with trafficmaster" to make sure they haven't been registered

what i wasn't sure about was that by giving them to him they could be used without the unit.

It just seemed dodgy to me

BUT he won't do the sale without !!!

[davidandrews]

So anyone any idea if this is safe?
A friend recommended i ask here because i have no idea myself whether this guy can a) check the serials out b)not use them on other equipment thus rendering what i am selling useless!

any advice much welcomed!

Play it safe and give TrafficMaster a call.

do as slipperystevens suggests it sounds a bit dubious that he wants the codes first
