Advetisers that are slow / do not respond.
If someone placed a for sale advert on here say Tuesday evening and you enquire for more pictures by email as stated in the advert early Thursday mornings would you expect to still be waiting and in dead had not responce what so evet even after having sent follow up emails.Pm,s?

I sent a pm to a member on here 18th April about a car for sale and still no reply. A moderator has kindly helped me too but with no result.
Sent sporadic pm's since but have now given up. Why bother advertising?

I suppose it depends what they're selling.
As a general rule the way a seller communicates before you buy from them gives you a good indication of how they'll be if you need to get hold of them to discuss a problem. Back in the days when I used to teach businesses how to sell on eBay rule one was communnicate. |

Down to human nature possibly.
You advertise something then realise you shouldn't. The PMs come in and then ignore. Again it may have been sold quick and some don't bother to post up sold. Unfortunately we are not all so conscientious.

If it's the latter, then don't be too hard on them - your request may not have got through to them (a possible technical glitch in the emails, maybe ? ) so they will be sitting there completely unaware of your predicament. We are all far too reliant on electronic communication nowadays and I for one regularly get asked for email quotes, where the enquirer's 'system' won't let me respond for some reason ? Without a phone number or contact address they must be thinking the exact same thing as you !

They have not been on line since the day after they put the advert up for a car for sale. Maybe they have already got a buyer lined up or something else more important has come up in their life and taken time up. i do not know about all youi guy but when i had a car up for sale on here about 4 years ago now I check in at least once a day to see if anyone was trying to contact me.

Only the advertiser or a mod can post on a car for sale advert - it's to prevent clowns from telling you that your car isn't worth the asking price.

I have still not had any reply although that may be because the guy that put the car up for sale on the 6th off June has not logged in since the 7th off June. You put a car up for sale on here then after the advert has been live less than 24 hours you do not bother logging back in again for 10 days and counting! I am shore that is not really going to work very well in it. Maybe it sold withing the day or they changed their mind about selling. Whatever way a update or some response to pms and emails would be nice. I am going to the town where the car is for sale tomorrow so it would have been nice to have been able to view it if it is still for sale that is.
