A minor gripe about selling/trading balls here...
« on: June 30, 2005, 01:48:20 PM »
I do not offer up balls for sale or trade on here often, but I have noticed something every time that I have tried.  I was curious if other users have experienced this too.  

I try to give an accurate description of all equipment, and also offer pictures.  The problem I have is that while many users ask me for pics of said equipment, I never hear back from them after the pics are sent.  It would be nice to receive a message saying "thanks, but it is not what I am looking for" or something to that effect.  That leads to my other quip which is- why ask for pics if you aren't interested in the stuff in the first place?  If I give an accurate description of a ball, and someone asks for a pic, I assume that they are interested in purchasing or trading.  I know that my descriptions of the condition are not that far off as to deter someone from doing business with me just after seeing a few pictures.  Am I way off base here or what?

I responded to this thread earlier, but wanted to add That I always keep all the messages sent to me until the transaction is finished. That way I can click back to the people that had answers or questions and respond to them.
