Does it piss you off!

[A.E.Y]

i made an offer to a member and he accepted, (this is Tuesday evening btw) I tell him I can meet on Thursday and he reply’s that’s fine if he still has it when I get there!

Sorry for the vent, it just seems like the newer members here just don’t get it.

I’ve been held off for over a week on trades and never once went back on a deal or sold something out from under anyone.

I was raised differently I guess. When you make a deal you stick with it.

I’ve regretted making a deal, but went forward with it anyway because I said that I would.

Agree 100%. If you don’t want to wait then don’t agree but if you do you honor it.

Just had my first experience with ghosting.

Full price offer, he said o.k., crickets.

Guess he got a better offer.

What exactly is the problem?

 

[Spas-12 Owner]

I hold on offers when a "deal"is made. In fact, Am holding on a Deal until Saturday. I already marked the item SPM and will have waited 5 days for the FTF to happen.

LOL, this is NOT a new phenomenon. It has happened as long as ODT has been around. You were 'outbid.' It's really that simple.

Help me out here!
The OP says he wants it on Tuesday for pickup Thursday.
The seller says fine if I still have it on Thursday.

Where is the problem?

LOL, I never said there was a problem. I said the OP's bid wasn't high enough for the cellar to actually put the item "on hold." Sailors are always free to agree to sail an item then accept a better/higher/closer offer. There is no rule here like other websites where you say "I'll take it." and that's it. Done deal.

I'm not complaining. I've outbid other members here.
