at a loss , no words

[martin08]

I once had a guy's wife contact me to say that her husband was broadsided on the way to the Post Office, and he was in traction in the hospital. I figured, there goes my $500.

Three months later, the gun shows up at my FFL just as described in the auction with a note of apology for the delay.

Strange, but true.

Three days is not a long wait. Gunbroker says to wait 5 business days. Sounds fair. No reason to panic yet.

yes and no respectfully , if someone cant take 2 seconds and send a quick note or provide the info needed , especially when the buyer is doing their part requesting it ,ignoring it doesnt exactly set a tone of warm and fuzzy with the deal

any ways , woke up and they sent a reply with the info , but stated they were having issues with PP , but we never got to the PP part , sent the funds moments ago , fingers crossed , i hope it works out and the rail panels arrive just dirty like pictured , thats a pretty good deal for them

Some guys truly can't manage quick responses. I'm dealing with a guy over ordnance presently and he's unable to maintain a line of conversation or answer a pointed question properly. His ordnance seems to be correct when it arrives though, as described and all...

as sapper said , it happens allot with buyers , never had a seller , for me a "quick response is within 3 hours , 3 days ? sounds like you dealt with him multiple times , the first time was weird though right ? left you wondering what was going on ?

Make no mistake, when I'm doing business I'm on it until it's done. I sell something and it's in the mail in two hours but I'm retired... Guys are surprised at how fast it goes. Yes, I've been left wondering.

That's just me, I don't like to hold another guy's property.

Seems that patience was what the doctor ordered.

They replied 2 full days before the required time limit.
