Greed

[tom in nc]

I think it's rude as hell to jump in when someone posts an ad and offer to buy an item that another person is obviously interested in. It has happened to me more than once on here. If you must do so, at least do it in a pm.

Too many people express interest then...nothing. Snooze ya lose.

Agreed. Also kinda rude not to mention confusing when Joe Citizen is tryin' to sell his blunderbus and people start postin' about theirs just like it only they got theirs for half what you want for yours til after while ya don't know if yer talkin' to the actual seller or neighbor Nosy Ned.

I agree, Just their manners or the lack of. But on the other side of the coin I was just now in a conversation with another forum member about how many good sales and purchase dealings we have had on the forum. Lots of good folks here.

Thanks

Anybody notice that as we get older we get a bit more crabby?

 

[FishDFly]

That is not always bad.

I like to think of it as just tired of the BS

 

[The Crisco Kid]

Yep, and we don't give a damn if we offend someone's sensitivity. At least I don't. On the flip side, I can deal with being offended. It's usually because the fool don't know what he's talking about.

Never could tell how serious a tire kicker is about a product until they pull out the cash, even worse when it's by text or email because you cannot see facial expressions or the green backs.

I am surprised at the times people post to a for sale thread instead of sending the selling a PM. And the number of times it “appears” someone has committed to buy only to back out. And yes, there are a lot of tire kickers. On another forum I am a member of the rule is: “I will take it” trumps all.

I too believe that the first "I will take It" should get the product, then go to PM to settle the deal. It's not rude, it's good business.

Well said

 

[rafterob]

I concur with Mushka. If one dilly dallies they may miss a sale. If interested you should contact the seller right away with your questions and then make up your mind quickly. That is the nature of this format.

 

[martin9]

Yep, first I'll take it buys anything I have for sale. I don't care how many questions I've had about it before that "I'll take it".

Fence sitters are the bane of a seller's existence...………...

 

[FishDFly]

With the increase lately of scammers, the number of fence sitters has increased. No one likes to lose money, especially with price of guns now.

The ones I hate are the ones that demand that you email them pictures of this angle or closeups that part, you go to the trouble of taking the pictures, resizing them and emailing them to the prospective "buyer" and you never hear another word out of them,

 

[FishDFly]

Common courtesy seems to be on the decline.

 

[Robby]

The first 'I'll take it' gets it, even if it happens to be a PM, everything has a time on it.
