Exactly right. When I was selling stuff, and had time constraints the exact thing happened to me. Because of it someone won't talk to me anymore. He felt I should hold the item for him when another person said he was coming. On top of that the person who said he was on his way never showed up. That same person is still posting saying he wants to buy things.
