There are few members here that I have had interactions with while selling that request you bring the item to their set "area" and when I have agreed with a follow up that you're going to pay for my gas to get there they get an attitude like I did them a disservice.He asked YOU to bring something YOU had for sale for him to look at it?
Why couldn't HE come to you? I mean, that seems more usual and customary.
They are also the members that will continually try and low ball you while expecting you to come to them.
As far as the OP…. I don't think of anything set in stone or sold until the cash is in my hand. For the most part I'm pretty good at reading people and will do my best to weed out the flakes.
If someone inquires and I never hear back then who cares. I'm not going to continually message them. Asking if they are still interested or want the item. That just makes one look needy, weak and pathetic (IMO). With that being said if someone says "I'll take it" and then go incognito on me I'll send one single message asking if they want it or I'm selling it to the next person. Normally that window lasts for about 12 hours max and it's in to the next.
It's the internet. A free forum. With no vetting. My standards and expectations stay extremely low for a reason.
