Is this David Smith?

 

[Ruffy]

Yes think so, it’s DW Smith

 

[Manney]

Not a name I've heard for a long time!

Used to see his adverts alot but not seen any for a long time.

What you looking to buy off him?

 

[Bullring]

Is he still going? Bought a new herbst bale trailer off him 12 years ago but not sure he is still going as never see him advertising anymore, hard man to get hold of at the time.

Sent them a couple of emails about a digger. . Had 1 reply waiting for a second. The digger is located in Germany so would have to buy without seeing, which is a worry. They offer a 6 month warranty but no details of what is covered. Items look well priced. Can't find any reviews other than what is on their website.

I hope you’re only joking here and realise this is a scam website

I would very much say it’s a scam, as said I don’t think he is dealing in machinery anymore and I would run a mile if it wasn’t even in this country.

They wouldn't be the type to use email or a website, maby post a link, we live 5 miles away from their yard so can drop in if needed.

Please don't buy a digger from Germany, even through a dealer as they won't have seen it either. Plenty in UK to look at surely.

If you`re happy to buy unseen best send him twice what he`s asking as it`s just bound to be excellent......
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE run a mile and DON`T ever buy something you`ve not seen. Bl**dy scammers.
I think the OP has maybe got his answer too.

They seem to be still trading and are [i always thought] a reputable company;

Thanks all, as I suspected it is dodgy, very dodgy. I’m in the market for a compact tractor with a loader, and came across this website. That is impressive and they have a good range of tractors available but the prices are too good to be true. I’m going to stay well away

[7610 super q]

Ford 7810 1995 ( eh, what ? ) £7250. Half price. Scammier than a scam based on a tin of spam.
