I sold Fiona my “older” laptop in December 2005 for 550 Euros.
She had asked me to setup the computer over the Christmas hols as I had to work in between years and we could exchange money for the laptop. Of course when I brought the laptop to work she told me she’d pay back after the New Year….
Over the year 2006 I bombarded her with text messages and e-mails and we met occasionally and she’d bring 50 or 100 Euros… Early 2006 she gave me a flat screen and told me it was a gift…afterwards she asked a 50 Euros for it….So up to now she has paid back 250 Euros plus the monitor…. (all together 300 Euros)
The last time I saw her was in November 2006. She told me “her” appartment (webmaster edit: this was a rented apartment) would be sold by the end of the month and then she would be able to pay back everything in one go. After that she only promised to meet me but it never came to that…. Since Feb 2007 she does not answer any of my e-mails or text messages.
