I think this is long overdue and agree wholeheartedly that this needs to happen. It weeds out the “losers” who waste time. It is one thing to message back and forth regarding the frags for Sale. But once you commit to a scheduled day and time... don’t bail. Many people have families etc. and give people the benefit of the doubt for tardiness. The whole no show, “going dark” not replying to text messages is disrespectful at the least.

It’s nice to see this setup, hopefully it stays respectful and it will help as a presecreening tool for Canreef sellers. Nice initiative Greg.

I'm pretty new at this but I've already experienced this as a frustrating aspect of buying/selling. I don't feel comfortable naming names, but I have to ask, why is common courtesy a rare commodity these days, especially when communication is so easy, just a few clicks. I've lost count of how many times people say they're interested, ask a bunch of questions, say they'll be in touch, then you never hear from them again. Or, on the other side, I've messaged hoping to buy something, and get radio silence. If you change your mind about buying, or don't have it to sell anymore, just respond so I know. It just takes 3 seconds of your time not to be rude. Anyway, that's my rant of the day.

Agreed.

This thread as Greg stated is not a witch hunt but just to keep people accountable for their actions.

All things considered, I have met many many stand up reefers that I consider my close friends now. I will continue on trading, buy and sell to other reefers and if they were my time, my experience will make its way onto this thread.

More facts, less filler. You guys are being like a bunch of nattering old women at a garage sale.. just say'in.

experiences between members may not be the same.

This one person wasted my time, but im sure he/ she did not flake on others based on posts ive seen.
