What's with all the deadbeat buyers lately? Making offers and then ignoring your PMs? This :censored: gets old!
Just make it a habit of saying "this price is good for today". That way the serious buyers will finish the transaction or ask for more time, while the pretenders will disappear and you can write them off sooner.
When potential buyers disappear there is no need to chase after them....just turn the page. They know exactly what they are doing and they just aren't interested anymore.
How long should an offer be binding though?
Is it different if it's in a sales thread or by PM?
If someone PM's me or makes and offer to buy the domain to be thats binding and i give them 24 hours to pay - if not negtive feedback for them.
I find most (especially the threads that are like 8 pages long) are just phishing and dont end up buying.
Im sure everyone sees it differently tho

I mean people that make a "Wanted" thread and dont end up buying anything or let it run on and on until it moves to the second page of the Wanted section.
Im curious - what would/do you consider a "credible" member?
Someone who has been a member since 2002/3/4/5?
Someone with a stupid little seal next to there name?
I guess i class people who let Wanted threds run on and on "Deadbeat buyers"
We all hve different views on what is a deadbeat and whats not.

I think the seller should make clear the offer rules with the payment time frame in the post...If those rules are not followed...Neg feedback.
Otherwise, there are times where I may put in an offer and then not be on line for a day or two...of course this does not apply for a BIN...
Credible would be 10 TR and up ...
Now all we have to do is figure out how to get people to actually LEAVE feedback. I have completed sales that the buyers have never left feedback.
Someone (I foget who) pointed out that alot of these threads and inquiries are nothing more than a way for the deadbeat to get a comparible value for his/her domains.
I mean, what better way to find out what a domain is worth than to ask others to sell you a similar one for ??? Dollars. Right?

Credible would be 10 TR and up (all positive) the member since part really isn't that important to me. Its all about the TR and trust because thats all that you can go on in this forum. 24 hours, no payment = Negative TR. uke:
