My other hobby being militaria I buy/sell alot of stuff though internet forums. Both with people locally and across the world.
When I am selling - if someone says they will buy something I take them on their word and hold the item for them, if it takes them a couple days to pay or pick something up so be it.. but when I buy I expect the same respect.
The important thing I think people need to remember is that these things are hobbies. Life comes first and this all second. My priority in life is to keep a roof over my family's head and food in their belly... if this means taking an extra day to ship something or an extra day to pick something up becuase my job or my family demands it, then so be it.
This newbs two cents worth...
