When you respond to a wtb ad in the classifieds and get ignored? Is It too much to say “thanks for the offer but I’ll pass”?

Yes. Common courtesy is the worst part of buying and selling things anywhere online. I was selling some things locally on Facebook marketplace and I got a half dozen replies of “is this still available?” I instantly reply back and crickets.

Are you talking about on this forum? Or elsewhere? Yes, it's annoying as hell. I've encountered it often, but never here.

Wears me out! A little simple courtesy goes a long way….

For example, some one posted yesterday looking for some ammo. Within minutes I PM with a picture of the ammo I have, my price, and my phone number. It was read but never a reply.

I've never had it happen here. I've always at least recieved a no thanks.

I know one thing. If I tell Cbump do be at the DQ in Gainesville at 2pm he shows up at 1:58 and I had just backed into the spot. We were both in a hurry but you know the good ones to deal with it seems.

I not a fan of the Trading Post section on the THF. You have way too many people selling stuff for other people, Prices in general tend to be high or overpriced.

I have never sold one thing, not even a give away item on TFF, while on THF I cant respond fast enough to most reasonably priced items Ive sold. Exact post Copy Pasted on both sites. Hands down sells faster here in my experience.

Head on over to Craigslist if you need to see how well American society functions overall.

Only listed a couple of things for sale on here, no problem. Did have a BS experience on FB web site where I was the first to respond one early Sunday morning on a great deal for an almost new great looking leather sleeper sofa that had never been slept on plastic still on. (kids with their friend's sleepovers wore ours out). The person said it was available, I immediately responded that I would buy it. They replied it is mine when can I pick it up? I replied as soon as I can get my brother to help me load it, should be no later than 12. They replied I could pick it up by 10:45 am or between 1:30 -3:00 and to please confirm that I will pick it up. I replied Confirmed that I am 100% certain I will pick it up at1:30 what is your address? She replied okay but if I no show it would become first available. Again I respond I will be there at 1:30 what is the address? Did not hear back from her so at 1:15 I sent another response on when and where, nothing?? Sent several more and around 2:45 she responds it has already been picked up and she told me it was first come first serve! Yes I gave her a peace of my mind on how she wasted most of my day then shared with her that a person is only s good as their word and her word was Chit

Just my .02
Any website that has a classifieds, section for trade, etc. Should always have a third party check out option provided by the original hosting party to avoid these situations. It should be just a simple as uploading a picture or posting a poll. Uses paypal, cashapp, venmo, etc redirection for the backend financial part, hosting website charges a 1-3% fee to cover cost of said add-on and terms/conditions waive complete liability. Seller is obviously liable for said product based upon legal value statures of theft, and buyer can cancel in 24 hrs with said restocking fee etc.
That would cover 99% of the first come first serve comments, and alot of the I will take it PM, that then later next day leave you on read.
Saying that, this website is great about people keeping their word, but like craigslist, some local ones on apps, etc. Tire kickers, wasting time.
---- One time I broke my wrist and was completely jacked up on pain killers and Jack Daniels and bought 3k dollar AR-10 on this website. Next day, get a call and guy is like still wanna meet in Greeneville, and I had no idea what he was talking about. He literally had to explain to me, we talked, I sent half money PayPal, and was bring half cash. I didn't remember a second of it. But I still went to the ATM and bought the rifle cause I said I would. At that point in my life I had like $3015.00 in my account and it was Saturday after payday and two weeks to go, but hey, if I said it, I said it
Turned out to be a great gun too. Satisfied customer as always. 5 stars.

My pet peeve is someone PMing me and needing more info I call them and they either don't answer or phone goes to voice mail. You know they have their phone in their hand!

I answer all legitimate messages as best I can….I often do not answer people who fail to recognize requests such as “will not sell separately”, “no low-balls”, etc..

A simple "let me get back to you" could of saved my business, never hurts just to say you acknowledge them Dan was a douche bag anyways tho
