Sold an account yesterday (account thread) It came with 108 CB, questcape, 99 cooking, torso, firecape, rune defender and other useful untradeables.
Eventually, I set the autowin at 200M (which I would consider cheap.) I had many offers on the account, yet one guy was quite persuasive and I agreed to sell it for 180M (20M less.)
The trade went smoothly initially, we both agreed on using a middleman (@Cam) and so Cam held the payment from the buyer (180M) and I delivered all of the account details including: passwords, payments, cc details, creation IP address, everything was given to buyer...
As agreed, a recovery test was made and it did pass successfully. Now, ~30 seconds after the buyer confirmed the recovery successful, he pointed out that the account had a quashed offence from June 2015 (offence) I had forgotten all about this offence, and so I had posted the standard image (https://vignette4.wikia.nocookie.ne..._System.png/revision/latest?cb=20130716194444) on the account thread.
At this stage, having full ownership of the account, the buyer claims that the account is 'flagged for botting', and that he is only willing to pay 125M for it (75M less than what I expected to sell it for), or that he be refunded the 180M. At this stage, I am in an almost impossible position it seems. Should I risk canceling the deal? That was what I wanted to do, but the account was no longer mine at this stage.
I ended up accepting the 125M for my account, and so I was left with 75M less than what I actually wanted for the account. It all seemed a bit unfair to me personally.
I totally admit making a mistake with the account status image. I know that I should have checked this beforehand, and posted the actual image of the past offences.
Your honest thoughts on this would be much appreciated. Thanks.
