Sellers Beware


I would like to inform the Audiogon Community about an individual I tried to do business with and hopefully what happened to me will not happen to others.

An individual, Frank, made me an offer on my speakers. I accepted his offer. He then sends an email asking how much freight will cost and he wanted the least expensive. A legit question. I informed him about clicking on Audiogon’s Get Cost for the freight cost and I proceeded to tell him I would take the speakers to USPS and get an actual cost for him. 

This was all by email. I asked him to please make an official offer through Audiogon. He never did. I have not heard a word from him since 5/30 when he asked about the freight cost. 

My thoughts are this individual should not be trusted. 

Have other members had experiences like this? I have sold quite bit on Audiogon and never had a problem before.

Yep, I read that, pretty common for "offers" to ghost, serious conversations to stall, the OP sounds wounded and upset when if he's sold "quite a bit" should be unfazed and move on imo. To each their own.

Uh, wait a minute. Maybe I'm completely crazy.

Where is it written that obligation to buy comes with asking a question?

Oh; but I've asked a question. Am I now obligated to buy this thread???

@eurorack oh plz, the guy made him an offer, he accepted the offer than got ghosted, that’s not cool, no class at all, if he changed his mind cause f=of shipping cost than so be it but at least.tell the seller instead of leaving him hangin, that’s classless, you clearly seem like that type of guy, waste ones time, that’s the problem nowadays on forums, lack of morals/ethics and comradely
