bassbass Posted December 29, 2014 Report Share Posted December 29, 2014 Let me tell you what this means: It means...I will take it, wait for a reply with PayPal information from seller and then get paid by the person that posted or pm'ed I will take it. It doesn't mean...I will take it, wait for a reply with PayPal information from seller and never pay or reply to text or PM's. I am seeing a lot of this lately. jcolo4sho, evans_usmc69, timcauliffe and 8 others 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evilcatfish Posted December 29, 2014 Report Share Posted December 29, 2014 Yea that's happened to me a couple times in the past few months. I ended up dicking around waiting for people to pay or get back to me and they never even had the decency to follow up with a "sorry I changed my mind." Almost deserves negative feedback pzoutdoors and nightbite 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

waynem Posted December 29, 2014 Report Share Posted December 29, 2014 If member XYZ has posted "I'll take it" and then backs out for no good reason, I think the seller has the right to post "Bait back up because member XYZ backed out". Maybe that bad press will have some impact. Totally up to the seller if he wants to do so. Fishing434, Mkromuar and gcopple 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't mean...I will take it, wait for a reply with PayPal information from seller and never pay or reply to text or PM's. I am seeing a lot of this lately. This is why when someone I don't know says "I'll take it" about whatever I'm selling, my response is, "it's yours when you pay for it." If I know you, I'll hold it for as long as you need. I'll turn down other buyers, offering more money even. Hell I'll send it to you and let you pay me later sometimes. But if I don't know you, and you take too long to pay without so much as a PM to say, "give me a couple hours until I'm home from work/lake"...I'm selling it to someone else and you can cry about what an "Not Allowed" I am afterwards.

CarolinaBoy4life Posted December 30, 2014 Report Share Posted December 30, 2014 Exactly. If you state you will take it then provide no response it can hold the person up selling it and even make them lose a sell to someone else who really would pay for it.

VAngler Posted December 30, 2014 Report Share Posted December 30, 2014 And to add to this: When sellers put a bait up for sale, list everything about the bait that a reasonable person would ask: ROF, Condition, Gen 1 or 2, color, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evilcatfish Posted December 30, 2014 Report Share Posted December 30, 2014 What do you guys think about leaving negative feedback for somebody who says they'll take it then doesn't? I'm not talking about somebody who changes their mind after the fact and lets you know, but a guy who says they'll take it (publicly or via PM) then just never responds or answers sent messages Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He could be holding up a sell for you or a buy for others. Your only as good as your word and when you say something you need to stick to it. Now I know things come up but be kind enough to update the intended seller with info and not just leave him in the dark waiting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you post it for sale, then make sure all the info is there and maybe a pic or two. I have missed out on baits because I don't automatically say that I will take it. I usually wont buy a bait without seeing a pic first or knowing all of the info about it. This also includes price. I've had times where I was the first to respond but lost the bait because I said that I'm very interested vs somebody that just says they will take it even though I had full intentions of buying the bait.
