A good and astute buyer makes the transaction for the seller as easy as possible. Like, I'll paypal you immediately, overnite you a check, or wire you the money. Which would you prefer. Car dealers have a saying "buyers or liars"

After some very positive suggestions by members and their views on selling
items to list members, I have to ask have they , like myself been a victim
of time wasters. I have always used the method of first come first served
basis which has included putting on hold until any questions are dealt with.
This does always not guaranty a sale and often left with the promsise to
send the money which never arrives .
In the meantime others still awaiting a week or so after the advert are left
without any chance of knowing whether they are the lucky ones are not. In
the event of a firm sale I always make a point of letting individual
enquirers that the goods have been sold.
Its good to know that the majority of transactions go through without any
hassle thank goodness!
