Calling Robb Adams
 
Has anyone heard from Robb? I'm trying to conclude our tank deal, and can't get ahold of him. Not to embarrass anyone (him or me), I understand that life gets crazy sometimes. But...

At what point do you pull the plug and let another buyer have at it? :confused:

How long since you've heard from him?

AJ_77 05-12-2005 02:42 PM

4 weeks since the deal was made now... :neutral:

felt weird to do this, but...

I found another buyer, and she's quite enthusiastic. :mrgreen:


..........
anyone else have similar experiences?

:confused:

I had a couple of promising bites with my old tank that didn't work out. Its business, what can you do?

Yes :confused: In two recent cases I had people who were interested, but did not follow up. I ended up selling my stuff to others. When the first people found out the the items were sold, some were rather miffed. But what could I do? First one with the money to show up is the buyer. That's business.

I'd wait 48 hours, after that, the person with cash gets it. Especially something big like a tank. Can't just have it sitting around the house!

Did someone ever give you a deposit, then not show up even after 4 weeks? :confused:

That is the strangest thing, and my only misgiving about reselling it. But it IS resold, so be it.

He hasn't even contacted you in 4 weeks..?? :eek:
Personally, I would have resold it and would refund his deposit if I ever got a hold of him again. :confused: :rolleyes:

Unless hes paying for storage space... :mrgreen:

No, there's been sporadic communcation, promises to pickup, etc. But that all came to a halt 11 days ago... no word since. No PM, no email, no phone call.

I've had the deposit for almost a month now. :confused:



But like I mentioned, it's sold again - goin' to Edmonton! :mrgreen:
