Not at all man, the only flake in the above scenario is the dude who backed out after so many damn pictures and flat out saying "I'll take it". and nobody is in trouble haha just frustrated with the multiple people who flaked. I could have sold the bait to someone who actually wanted it and was willing to pay but instead I was too busy waiting for some dude who ends up bailing.

Maybe I misunderstood your original post, it sounded like you were having issues with individuals wanting to purchase an item then... nothing. I'm aware it's an older post and that's why I commented questioning the need to revisit the topic. I appreciate the situations individuals find themselves in; however, it seems to me as if the whole ordeal is getting so much worse. I posted this here because I recalled reading something similar regarding the situation I was facing and utilized the search button rather than just immediately posting. I was curious to see if there were any definitive decisions made regarding how to handle such douchebaggery on this site pertaining to either ends of the spectrum. I figured those of you who use this site more regularly than myself should have more say in the etiquette involved here. I'm thinking from now on I'll do away with PMs regarding sales; I'm not flipping anything and everything I'm selling is up for equal to or less than I paid... mostly from this site. Why not have the whole thing transparent I guess, that way when someone on here says "I'll take it" maybe we can collectively hold them accountable. I did not mean for my frustration with my own issues to be an attack in any way to the original situation of you loosing a bait offer while taking care of your family, I guess I misunderstood the original post.

I feel this needs to be revisited; I'm not the most frequent of posters on here but for shits sake people if you PM you will take it you should be held accountable. I have 5 star, super hero members of this forum replying that they will purchase an item then... (enter the sound of crickets). On the other end of the spectrum I've sent payment to several reputable lazy POS's on here who accept money and then snooze on sending the items purchased. Okay, I get it maybe they didn't have time to sign in over the last couple of days... oh, but wait... their last activity is displayed and they have been in and out multiple times. My advice... don't be a "not allowed" "Not Allowed"; be accountable for your actions or own up and just say "sorry dude, something came up". Is it okay to chastise these people and call them out on their bullshit? Or will too many feelings get hurt and will it be considered internet bullying? Lots of respect for those who have been open and honest but to all you flakes, you honestly ruin everything great I think this site is about.

Is this in MI? Awesome fish but that's an absolute beast in MI. Either way, nice work!

lol "This head movie makes my eyes rain"

Not the case for me; not on back orders, not present orders, and not even on future orders. I've sent my DD214, I've emailed them several times, I've spent a lot of money at TW; I'm not asking for a hand out; but if you say it is your policy you should probably take care of that. Customer service a couple years ago was what had me coming back without even shopping around. Now I just go w/ the lowest bidder.
