people buying but never pay?

[drn1013rd]

maybe it is just me but seems like this last batch of parts i put on the site
has had an extremely higher than average amount of people saying that they will pay this for the item and after you except never hear from them again, anyboby else seeing this same thing or just me thanks

[BEAST477]

I think some people have intentions of buying then thier wives or mommies won't let them and they are to embarresed to let you know they can't buy it and leave you hangin'. JMO

I have been getting the (My family comes first) answer for spitting the hook out? Don't know why that was said. or my latest one had his trans go out the next day. And this was on the same part. Karma? Just kidden. The first answer that was offered is the most accurate I think.

[drn1013rd]

your probably right i have had this happen a few times before but seems like this round there has been a lot of it, people keep beating you up on the price and when you except there offer, never hear back. on another site they were talking about people making a game or betting each other they could get someone to except there offer for the fun of it or personal bets, was just wondering if anyone else getting the same problem?
thanks don

its all the part of selling..it happens in good economic times and bad..just learn to deal with it cause its part of the territory.
just make up a policy of 1st come 1st serve and stick with it.

Maybe, as times are getting tougher, people are concentrating more on the neccessities of life but still dreaming the same dreams they had before the ressession set in.

here you go guy's this is why i quit doing cod after several calls and begging me to ship him parts because he don't have a credit card or a check card and don't want to send a money order afraid i will rip him off .
I finely gave in and shipped the parts well here is the out come.

I sent this package out on DEC 11 And got it back today
I refuse to do it again this has happened so many times i cant count if you don't want the stuff or don't have the money then don't order is the way i see it all this does is ruin it for other people because now i just want do it anymore.
Not the same thing you guy's are talking about but you still get jacked around and this cost me a lot of money though out the year. but no more.

:D must be everyehere. i just took my car off the market trusting frank from new york to send a deposit. waited over a week and now he wont answer a phone. if you cant buy something at least make a call or email the seller so they can continue to try to sell the product. its not really that difficult.thanks for listening.

[TheYellaBrick]

I never delist anything until I've got money in my hand in either a SUBSTANTIAL nonrefundable deposit or full and CLEARED payment. And even then I take names and phone numbers of interested parties after the payment and before the item is picked up or delivered.

[badfast57]

:D its unfortunate we have to do that but you are 100 percent correct. i have always trusted people and this guy was wondering if he could trust me!!!! i just have never thought of doing that to somebody.thanks for the suggestion and for listening to me.

And I bet if you were to email him that you sold it to someone else he would get pissed and bad mouth you for it.

[iowackers]

Ohhhh Yeaaaaa!!! :lol: I have had many trade offers on my '68 Camaro SS. The guy that I trust in FL said" If someone here gives me exactly what I want, I will take it. If they low ball me I will not. You do the same. If someone else offers you what you want for your car, take it. Only thing I want is a phone call or an e-mail to say what went down. I will do the same. If we both have our cars when we are ready to trade, then we will trade." This guy, a military guy like I was, is the most honest, upfront, person I have met since I listed my baby for sell. Posers, TAKE NOTE!!!!!!!

[badfast57]

HOPEFULLY HE DOES GET PISSED. I LEFT A MESSAGE THAT IT WAS BACK ON THE COMPUTER AND HE STILL DONT HAVE GUTS TO CALL AND SIMPLY SAY, HEY I CANT BUY YOUR CAR SORRY.HE DONT DESERVE TO HAVE SOMEONE DEAL WITH HIM.... :!: :!:

[undertaker598]

Don't hold your breath. He won't call. I remember the day when someone said something it actually meant something. There was something called a man's word way back when. Seems like their wives or girlfriends call the shots, that's pathetic.
