Can I get your definition of ghosted?Would you give a buyer that “ghosted” you a neutral, negative or not provide any feedback at all? Ya’ll be safe as always![]()
Agreed to price, day, time & FFL locationCan I get your definition of ghosted?
If me and a buyer agree to a location, day & time to meet and then doesn't show up (ghosted). I feel like that merits negative feedback so others get a heads up this user will most likely waste your time.
Fair enoughIn my opinion, if they agreed to a time and place, but didn’t show up, that’s a negative mark. Anything short of that, including agreeing to buy and then going silent, is neutral. No actual agreement, just a lot of messaging and talk, is no feedback at all.
Agreeing to sell and then going silent the same?In my opinion, if they agreed to a time and place, but didn’t show up, that’s a negative mark. Anything short of that, including agreeing to buy and then going silent, is neutral. No actual agreement, just a lot of messaging and talk, is no feedback at all.
I think so. If they agree to buy/sell and then disappear, there’s always the chance something bad happened and they aren’t just aAgreeing to sell and then going silent the same?
Gave the member a negative feedback anywayFair enough
Agreed to price, day, time & FFL location
Yeah, this member also had a pattern of low balling in the beginning and would pretend that “it’s all he has” and then would put another offer afterwards…..when you then agree with the price, he would somehow find every excuse not to go through with the transfer…..I think he knows that he can’t get a negative review for doing the “lowball offer then Flake or Ghost” over and over so he just continues on with it…..this time around I actually called him out on it and basically told him I’m skeptical of him actually buying my stuff I pretty much told him to prove me wrong about my assumption….as expected, never responded and I know he’s back on CA Guns again since shows when the member was last in lolThats a negative review for sure. A lot ofty buyers in these classifieds. Their word means absolutely nothing, and they could care less if they waste your time
Yes sir….kept everything…..both conversations via PM and Text…..also, this member had a previous “Neutral” review from another seller for doing something very similar…..again this member has a pattern (in fact there are a few more that are like this member as well that just put in an offer, agree to time, day and FFL & Ghost) and just doesn’t get called out…..as an active member with 87 Positive Feedbacks both as a seller and buyer I want to make sure that members continue to be transparent, honest and continue to communicate with each other when doing these transactions…..a simple “Sir, I changed my mind, I won’t be able to do the transfer!”FYI, keep your receipts (conversations). We've seen where an "agreement" to buy or sell was never fully confirmed by both sides even though one side perceived it so.
For agreements to meet days in advance, always confirm the day before or day of, before getting in your vehicle and driving to the meet.
