Just when I go off on how we shouldn't name names and for the most part Canreefer's are good I get burned.

On Sunday made a gentleman's agreement with another member to buy a pump at the price he wanted. Did not question his price or try to get it lower. We agreed that I would come by some time this week and pick it up. He did not have a problem with that as I have purchased from him before.

Called him today and he said sorry sold the pump and his system to a friend because he offered him a great deal.

It is not that big a deal because I didn't really need the pump and only wanted it for a backup. It is the principle. Maybe its just me but if I agree to sell something to someone at a set price and someone comes along and offers me better price I would not ever sell what I agreed to. Seems like the right thing to do.

Still do not think we should name names I will just not likely purchase from that member again.

Ouch some people are only out to make a buck and for the extra $10 will disregard any previous handshake deals. It’s sad that a persons “word” is not held up.
