A small pet peeve

A small pet peeve of mine
I am a small time detector dealer as many of you know so this doesn't happen to me often but can feel for those dealers that sell many detectors & detecting items where I imagine this happens more. Last week I received a email from someone that said that they read on one of the forums that I repair headphones and wondered if I still do. He told me that he and one of his friends had a set of phones that needed repair and asked me to reply back with details. I replied telling him that I would be happy to do the repairs & and told him to send them to me & gave him my name/address and phone number. Well I have never heard back from him. I wondered did he decide to not send them are they in the mail and got lost,etc. I am very easy to get along with and not alot bothers me but things like that drive me bananas. This wasn't anyone from this forum but am sure that some of you that wheel & deal has had similar experiences.

Once a person's itch is scratched all the other scratchers no longer matter.

His loss.

What ever happened to manners, common courtesy?

It seems like manners and common courtesy and respect for others are in short supply these days.

At least you didn't have any money involved. Online fraud and buyer remorse returns are far more aggravating.

"Be Backs", low ballers, and tire kickers...the swamp gas of wheelin' and dealin'.

Hey Steve happens to me all the time..

Get people going to send a machine for modding etc..never hear back..

No biggie...

I'm sure people get peeved with me too..It takes me sometimes a week or more to get all emails answered hope they understand also..

next time ONLY proceed after establishing a reasonable conversation with the actual person that wants to do business via email.
