Frustrated
 
Why is it people post stuff up for sale. You PM them to see if it's still available. Dead air no response. You can see that they are online must have seen your PM but nothing. I would like to purchase their item but have the opportunity to buy another that is a little higher priced, don't want to miss out on second one but would rather buy the first. Please people if you post something up have the courtesy to respond to your PM's!

Been the better part of a week. Guess they don't want to sell. But how hard is it send a quick PM? Going to pick up other one.

On the flip side - I have had many people pm with an offer and I've accepted their offer and either never hear from them again or they then offer even less...

I like that and 'maybe' I'll give that a try.

I wanted to something and motivated to sell by pricing very cheap if he was to take it off my hands immediately. No response for over 3+ weeks. He finally PM 's me and expected the same price.

I did accepted then he expected me to drive to Surrey to deliver from the Coquitlam area!

Every time you complain it gets bumped to the top.
This is the right category.
It has to do with people posting stuff up for sale in this category and then not responding. Where do suggest it go? It is a simple request that if you are selling something have the courtesy to respond, be it yes or no just please respond.

Figured this has been buried too deep, so here is another frustration. Lol
People who post things up, you contact them saying your interested the same day or within a few days. They get back ( thank your stars you got a response) to you with "oh I have decided not to sell it", or "I changed my mind." Fine no problem at all, just change your post advertising it to reflect that.
You get your hopes up that you have found what you were looking for,
The price is agreeable....
But wait....
It's not really for sale.
AAAAARRRRGGGG!!!!!!!!!!

This has happened 3 times so far in my quest for a skimmer.

acepumping 08-11-2014 05:12 AM

What size skimmer u been looking for?

davej 08-11-2014 01:29 PM
