Why do people ignore PMs?, by viperuk on Feb 27, 2008 22:18:24 GMT 1, ...Just as a general bit of advice, "do most people ignore PM's they receive on the forum?"
...i.e. Mr A says hes selling a print, I PM Mr A with an offer and never hear anything? I repeat the offer and still don't hear anything... I repeat offer again, still nothing... I get naffed off and tell them where to stick their print...
What gives? Either you are selling or not.. I expect to haggle a bit but you can't haggle with silence!!!

I think it's a case of "I've already sold it", or "I have a better offer". Yeah, it'd be nice if that person could have replied and told you so, but perhaps he/she received way too many messages and didn't have the time to get back to them all? It's certainly a possibility.

I've never been in that situation but I don't think a cut and paste 'thanks, but it's already been sold' is too much to ask for.

Why do people ignore PMs?, by streetgirl on Feb 28, 2008 9:46:30 GMT 1, Hey Viper - how's it going?
It's can be a nightmare, I remember when I was looking to purchase an item, put up a post and must have recieved about 30 pm's. It took a while to get through them, find myself the exact print at the price etc...but I did, and still pm'd most people as well you all know, deals have a way of falling mid-flight so it's best not to burn any bridges...they are likely to come back and bite you on the arse.

Why do people ignore PMs?, by jed100375 on Feb 28, 2008 14:44:10 GMT 1, I've got the same problem but the other way round! People said they wanted gun baby pieces so i spent two weeks solid painting them only to finish and be ignored by everyone who had ordered, including one person on this thread! So hours of work and for what? The only person to reply on is PUD. Top fella in my opinion!
