Here is a classic for me...
This is all very simple to fix, just sell to the first person with cash...  No holding, etc...  I never have these issues because I tell people up front-- first person with the cash gets it.  Period, I don't dicker, and I have sold every item I have ever listed.  Don't allow yourself to be sucked into this sort of thing...  If you do, it is your fault as much as it is the other person...

Yeah, run into someone beating someone out at the mail box, then someone is mad and upset...

Best practice is to stick to you word, that is, if that means anything to you...but fully understand the alternate policy...

Cash on the Barrelhead was the old expression for it. Money talks and BS walks is another one...

Use your current call there Roger, not William's, not really fair to him...I told you long before you backed out I marked it sold to you..did you say, "hold on", etc.  No. No big deal to me, it was sold anyway, just you needed to be a bit more honest.  I am not holy but I certainly stand behind my commitments...time for you to move on...Chao...

I love the ones that tell you they are buying your item and sending you the funds...week goes by, nada, and when you contact them back they make up a BS story about how they emailed you declining to purchase....

Funny how ONLY those emails never appear in SPAM, TRASH, or INBOX.  Hmm...just where do those alleged emails go I wonder....LMFAO...
