Yes, I get it, I'm an awful person not fit for polite society. I didn't realize the simple act of not responding to a single open ended PM from someone was a cardinal sin.

It occasionally happens that someone doesn't reply to one of my PMs. When that happens, I just assume that the other person wasn't interested in making a deal or maybe had something else going on where he read my message and forgot to reply, and then I move on. I don't take it personally - no harm, no foul.

Now I've learned that the correct thing to do is wait a week, passive-aggressively shit in the other guy's ad, and wait for the ladies from the sewing circle to dogpile the scofflaw.

Have you considered that insulting everyone who responds to your thread might not be the best way to make a sale?

Have you considered how rude it is to interfere with another man's sale, especially when you're a complete stranger to the situation?

I get it. I should have just said "no thanks" to Jarrod's one PM. Honestly, I was on vacation when I got his message and didn't see anything that needed an urgent reply or looked like a deal was about to made. I hate using net54 on my phone, so I just mentally bookmarked it to reply to when I got home to my laptop. I forgot about it, and he certainly never sent another message to politely remind me or inquire further.

I don't think it's out of line for me to take offense at Jarrod coming in here a week later with that passive-aggressive crap over literally nothing, or be annoyed by the tut-tutting from a bunch of other people who have absolutely no involvement at all other than as members of the peanut gallery.

Jordan - Honestly, you suck.

Your responses are so much worse than the (relatively minor) issue of not responding to the original PM. What is wrong with you? Leon should ban you from the site. Please stop responding so we can all move on.

Yes, clearly I'm the one who needs to move on.

Scofflaw: a person who flouts the law, especially by failing to comply with a law that is difficult to enforce effectively.

(In case anyone was in the same boat as I was).
