Rant 2/2/10
« on: February 02, 2010, 01:45:39 PM »
/rant on

You know what really chaps my âss? People who sell stuff on here and go 5 days, 6 days, or even a WEEK without getting back on here to check their messages! What the hell kind of service is that? If you think someone is going to wait around with an open-ended offer on the table, you're wrong. When was the last time you went to McDonald's and had to wait a week for your order cause Pablo had other things to do than reload the apple pies?

ROFLCOPTER's advice of the day-- If you are wanting to sell something online, in person, or wherever the hell you're trying to sell it, MAKE YOURSELF AVAILABLE FOR INQUIRIES IF YOU WANT TO MAKE THE SALE. Otherwise, good luck, part-timer.

Ummmm okay. If a person is taking too long to respond back, it's a real easy fix, find someone with a similar deal for the same ball. Keep in mind spec's will be different but from what I see on here, spec's like top weight and pin distance's don't really matter much.

maybe they're just ignoring the initial flood of emails that usually consist of guys trying to lowball them by $5 dollars and people asking them to hold the $35 ball until next friday when they "get paid".

Great point DP3.  My personal favorites are when a medical emergency arises.  If I had a nickel for everytime I have heard that, i'd be rich.

I heard one from a friend where the seller sent him a message saying "my wife got mad at me and threw a ball out the window and it cracked on the ground.  It was the ball I was going to sell you.".  Simply priceless.
