On the plus side. Did a deal with a guy today with two positive feedbacks ! Been a member for two plus years. One of the nicest guys I’ve met on here. I’ve often espoused it’s not all about feedback. In PM’s you get a feel for the other guy .
Maybe it’s true what people say about me then.. I’m an unlikeable asshole?
what people
All the ones I’ve tried tradein with the last month or so..
Aint much out there to trade for
Not anymore
I have a question, as a New Guy. How do you get positive feedback so that you can purchase something? Most members do not even respond to PMs. I am a stand up guy, but this is a hard gig to break into.
I have a correction: I said “most members”. I meant from the ones I have tried to communicate with, I did not mean to imply most members as a whole.
I did a deal several months ago with a longtime member who had very little feedback, and the most recent was several years ago. Still the email and text communication was prompt and responsive, so I agreed to meet him for the sale. It went without a hitch, and he now has more recent positive feedback.
My rule is to always get a phone number and confirm the meet that day well before the scheduled meeting time. I also let them know up front that there are other buys interested in order to create a sense of urgency and commitment.
