Tyre Kickers

[dragonboy69]

I been getting a call from a person about buying some thing from me on another site. He seems to be a Tyre Kicker. He was supposed to meet up last Friday. So I was waiting for the call to organize a meeting place and time. So I never received a reply about meeting up. I text him again twice to see if he was interested. I didn't hear from him until today. Same thing he said he was going to buy it again today but didn't show up or didn't even apologize. So I'm asking people what would you do or what do you recommend me to do. Should I deal with him or not. Cheers Hus.

Nope - if he didn't have a good explanation for why he didn't meet the first time or even apologise, forget about him. You're not obliged to sell to him - if he was truly interested he wouldn't be mucking around and wasting you time.

Don't bother mate don't waste your time and money texting him

 

[Stompsy]

Bugger that. We have a local buy swap sell group for Townsville on fb and I have been shafted so many times trying to sell stuff on there. I'd just ignore him altogether.

 

[CaptainRatbag]

He's pulling your chain forget him (and dont give him your address)

Hopefully you can sell whatever to someone else in the meantime.... then you can tell him to meet you (at some phony address) and you of course dont turn up..... see how he likes it... Hissssssssss

Bbwwaahahahahahaheheheheheeh done that before

Know exactly what you're going through. Had an agreement with a trade that was going to happen over the weekend. Had 5 offers the week prior to for sales but my heart said no, you agree'd to this person first. The thursday before trade I thought I'd check and make sure all is ok and "green light", 20 text messages and 5-10 phone calls and I still havn't heard from the person. My head says I got played and forget about it but my heart says something may have happened, all is ok, just lost the phone, might be in hospital, no1 can honestly make an agreement and then ignore someone, can they.........?

I think the worst thing is you feel more annoyed because of the others you've said no to are either no longer interested, or have found other sources so it's a lost sale so what could have been hasn't eventuated and you're still back where you started I feel you'r pain.

I would sell to another, you have been mucked around enough, you should never have to chase because if you do it usually means they are not that interested. People can be full of sugar coated poo sometimes good luck with it all

He is a time waster mate forget about him. Sadly today people of his ilk with no manners or conscience are becoming more and more common. A very sad state of affairs.

I received a message from the buyer with an apology at 11am. So I decided to give him 1 more chance as unholiest said. You wouldn't guess what he turned up and purchased it. So lucky I gave him another chance. Thanks everyone for your help.
