How long do you wait on a reply for pictures before moving on to a new deal? I had a trade deal and sent my pictures but have not received his picture of the ball. He was to send it on the 10th. He did read my message to him on the 10th asking for him to let me know when he sent them, Still no picture. He has not read the last pm I sent to him, saying that I hoped I did not miss them in my junk folder. I have sent him an email today saying that I needed to know asap if the deal is still good, because I have a buyer interested in the ball.   When do I move on and sell it to the next person?

I'd give him until at least tomorrow, the 13th, since you've already waited until the 12th to ask, to see if he has a valid reason for delaying his response to your pictures. Anything can have happened to him or his family or his PC to distract him temporarily.

I wish we had some simple rules to go by for transactions so that everyone understood where they stand. I have lost deals too because i have had people tell me that they want something and then I don't hear from them again or I hear from them 2-3 wks later. My personal opinion is if I go to the trouble to answer questions or send pics the other person should have the courtesy to at least come back and say no not interested,not at this time or something.

I know there are times when I have not responded back but I know I should have and am going to try harder in the future because it is very frustrating to wait not knowing what someone intends to do.My $.02
