  1. I didn't really want to put it out like this... I wanted to speak to Nick on the phone and tell him I was sorry for being such a pain and stupid individual_without_enough_empathy before putting it out there. Nothing I say I feel justifies anything, I still think I should have done something else so I'm not here to play innocent, just explain myself and come forward...

     

    It WASN'T from a WTB thread firstly... it was a PM conversation, I'm not sure where the WTB thread thing came from? Nick sent me his pdf of comics for sale as requested in PM by me, which was very kind of him :) and he said if I'm interested in anything that it would be no problem to scan them, as they needed to be scanned anyways for the website eventually... so I figured i'd cheekily request a few scans... I then wanted a few things, but I then realised and said, can we talk about it towards the end of the month some more (He did tell me the pricing and he did say I would take a few of them after deciding no to some)... but I did agree to them, but I wanted to talk about it when I was doing better with money, and I've just had problems and it went over my head since then... He left it for me to message him and to be honest, I just completely forgot... NO excuse, but... that's the truth to the story.

     

    :(

     

    I'm speaking with Nick and sorting it out now...

     

    iIntersting...so if someone agrees on a price or book on a WTB...but there's never an actually transaction made...then it's Probation? :shrug:

     

    Wouldn't it be probation on both parts since neither party completed the transaction?

     

    Here's a solution WTB Threads No transaction = Nothing.. meaning no harm no foul.

     

    Rules on WTB Threads should differ from an actual Sales Thread. Sales Threads are under strict guidelines/rules.

     

    If you were to apply the same to a WTB thread, then those people who speak to each other are contractually obligated to finish the transaction.

     

    However, if I were to offer severl books on a WTB thread, the buyer agrees, but doesn't follow through, I would always be willing to make an exception and just sell the books somewhere else, or to someone else.

     

    So if somebody wanted to buy a book/s and you offered them one, sent them scans when requested, offered a price and they agreed, they asked for time payments and you agreed, then finally they said 'I'll take it', you wouldn't consider that a sale?

     

    If the guy then never bothered contacting you again, didn't even PM you to say 'I've changed my mind' or 'I can't afford it', you wouldn't bring it up? Especially when you know the same person has done exactly the same thing to other boardies? You think that you would be deserving of going on the probation list if that happened to you?

     

    Just read Lloyd's response and course there were some details that Nick failed to mention here. Either way. They should both work this out.

     

    Let the probation gods deside.
