A Members Word Should Be Good
What is going on around this site? In the past month I have run into more and more people that can not keep their word. I go by old school for one reason. That is how I was raised. A PERSON IS ONLY AS GOOD AS THEIR WORD.
THEIR ARE STEPS A BUYER SHOULD TAKE. BEFORE GIVING THEIR WORD.
1. DO YOUR REASEARCH
2. ASK THE SELLER QUESTIONS
3. AGREE ON A PRICE OR TRADE
4. AGREE ON PICK UP OR MEETING
5. THEN GIVE YOUR WORD. NOT BEFORE OR CHANGE AFTER WORDS. NO MATTER WHAT...............!!!!!!!!!!!
Has anyone else ran into this ? The rating system on the site is a joke. How a bout starting a post to list all broken deals "THEIR WORDS"?

I have broken my word several times....shit happens.....but I usually let that person now quick enough not to loose a sale. ie; those 351 swap headers....I can't get to you until next week. My tech that was to pick them up....was in a bad cell and couldn't get them from you....thats why I bumped them back up for you. Normally I am 99% on the money. Sorry Rob!! I did offer for shipping at my cost for the items so you wouldn't have to sit on the sale!! I'll man up to that!!

If I had a dime for every time someone was on the way to buy something or backed out of selling me something because they were offered more money elsewhere, I'd be rich.
Most people that say, "I give you my word" don't even think what it means.
Everything that I sell is for sale until someone hands me money.
...and If you have a problem with a specific person,....nevermind

When I talked to you on the phone yesterday, I said I would come look at them. In the PM before that, I stated I did not know if thats what I was looking for. It turns out that they are not what I am looking for. I appologize for the inconvience this may have caused, but I did get right back with you about it...Its not like I strung you on for weeks. I have bought and sold many things on this site...I have been jerked around enough. hell I bought my car from this forum
