So what you guys are saying is it is appropriate to ask for more money once a deal is made and if the guys refuses which by not responding is saying no then calling him a cheap ass is appropriate. Good to know. Damn wish I would have known that I could be about a $1k richer with all the bats Ive sold on here.
Correct. I got the bat and it was as described. I don't think asking for more money 7 times is acceptable behavior for a seller and then calling me a cheap ass for not paying it is either.
You guys are the Mods and if you don't think his behavior is worth Buyer Beware then erase my feedback. I honestly believe it is. No one should feel pressured to pay more money after the price is agreed and paid. Him leaving me the buyer beware feedback has absolutely no backing. I did exactly what was needed by communicating my offer pay and giving my address.
if a guy can't estimate shipping and has to ask for more money after the fact = buyer beware
i don't some assclown hounding me for money after the deal is done
Hounding someone on here is now a bb? He shipped on time, he cried about something stupid. Leaving BB when the guy got a bat out quick and as described here is unneeded. Is it a ***** move sure. Is it childish and **** sure. I would leave BB on the OP for not responding and ****ty communication as well. Its all petty bull**** man. Instead of getting every once of feedback, at someone we gotta start stressing and teaching people to properly protect themselves.
Spend a little time to "make the deal up front". It usually only takes 2 or 3 more texts or PMs to establish all the relevant details (like the true cost of shipping from the seller to your shipping address). If you make a deal by text, recap it on a sbf PM and have the other party agree to it on the same sbf PM thread. It's not that difficult.
If I made a BB after every PM insult, I would have over 10 by now. Nothing against the OP, but if Bramptonfire called me a cheap ass, I would have told him to FO, and left it at that.
OP did make a deal up front, a deal that the seller agreed to. Then after the fact, the seller wanted to change that deal
Like I said I believe asking for more money after a deal has been agreed and paid whether its .50 Cents or $50 should be frowned upon. I didn't pay it on principal because we agreed to deal and I made payment. It didn't matter whether he sent me 1 PM or 50 I don't think this practice should be tolerated. If this practice isn't BB then erase the itrader feedback. I really don't care. I felt it was so therefore left the feedback.
The real reason I was told to start this thread was because he left me BB as revenge and I want that erased. I agreed to asking price. Then agreed to pay as a gift. Made payment immediately and sent address to be shipped to. There is nothing questionably BB about what I did
Your communication was poor. You didn't respond to 7 PMs...he even said before shipping something about not knowing the cost to ship to AZ...is it his fault for not checking first? Yes. But he was asking for $5 man...and this board is to help out board bros. I'm sure you would have paid $105 for the bat...$100 is a killer deal...this shouldn't be the norm, but you can make exceptions...
And for the BB you left him? What are you wanting to warn people about? Him shipping quick and on time? Or giving you a great deal? Or having good communication? If anything you leave positive with a note...
