"Good etiquette" as defined by each of us has little bearing on wether the person is a good and responsible seller or not. He is there (here) to sell an item; not to make friends. Some of us want to connect with other members of the audiophile club. Others are drier and more to the point with no interest in social fluff. Nothing wrong with that and no indication of wether the transaction will be a good one. I prefer to consider feedback, good photos, clarity and thoroughness in the ad and item description when deciding wether the seller is going to get my money. Make an offer; that's all.
Audiogon etiquette question
first - APOLOGIES - I know this isn't the right forum subsection but there seems to be no appropriate section to post under.
My problem is this:
I've been writing a seller (twice now maybe?) for the last 30 or so hours about an item they just posted for sale. I told them I wanted it and asked if it was still available and how to proceed. But no answer - I guess they COULD be away (?) but it seems odd to me. Is there any sort of process anyone can recommend to follow? I"m a bit frustrated here.
