A member here was selling some parts and I was interested in the cpu he had listed. I sent him a pm with an offer as to not crowd up the sale thread. I waited something like 15 hours for his reply and he accepted with " Yeah, I can do that". So I waited for him to send me his pp info so I can transfer the payment he agreed upon.
Waited another 12-15 hours and still no sign of him. At this point I figured he must be a busy person and he'll get back to me. I check his sale thread and I see he edited his sale thread and marked "Pending" on the Cpu. I took this as he agreed to the offer I sent and and that we'll be finalizing the transaction.
Well I waited an additional 4 hours and I posted in the public sales thread that I was still awaiting his info to transfer payment which he agreed upon. So he replies back in the sales thread " My apologies it was sold to another member" I'm like...whut?
So I reply back : " Let me get this straight: You have an item for sale, I pm you with an offer which you gladly accepted, but then you sell the item from under me?" That's total bullshit.
Why would he agree to my offer if he had no intentions of selling it to me? I would think if you made a deal with someone, you should honor that deal, period. Unless it's some rare circumstance that something of great importance changed, then that would be understandable. But to just renig a deal without not so much as a fucking warning is just unacceptable and wrong. His response? " Well no monies changed hands" That's his fucking excuse.
I thought a deal is a deal here? What kind of shit is that? Unfucking real.
