Not a bad price for what it is....distance is a killer for me or id seriously be considering snagging this one.

Tread lightly here, folks. As you can see I posted an "I'll take it" at 5:23 this morning and followed up with a PM to the seller, who replied that I was second on the list. When I asked how this could be, I was told he had already received a couple of PM's from others. It doesn't matter to me - I have several Mosins. It's the principle involved. Maybe protocol has changed over the years. It used to be that the first posted "I'll take it" with a follow-up email was first in line. As I told the seller, it's his rifle and he can sell to whomever he pleases. It's just not the way i do business.

I have been burned by responding I'll take it in the posting and following with a PM.

Another buyer PM ed while I was answering in the thread.

Like they said in Pirates of the Caribbean "They are more like guidelines"

If it doesn't matter, why are you complaining about it?
Any item I have ever sold is in order of pm received.
I could care less who posted in the ad.
All feedback disputes are settled by what was sent via pm, not by stuff posted.

 

[dondon48]

was always my understanding that the first pm is first....if i want something i pm, don't even do an I'll take it on the thread...

I've seen a trend where several people will pm me to buy my stuff, but none of them posted to the add itself.
