He wasn't at home and shot me a message...I am sorry for the miscommunication. If for any reason it falls through i will contact you immediately and give you first dibs

I was to busy trying to message the seller for a better pic, page quality and a back pic.

That's not how these boards work.  You put a book up for sale and someone takes it in the thread, you honor that sale.

You need to explicitly state that PMs can trump the in the thread otherwise  automatically trumps anything else.

As I said, i will honor your post and sell the book your way. I didn't realize the rule.

Everyone’s rules are different. 

There is no standard set of rules, even though some folks still put “standard rules apply” in their threads. 

Nowhere did the seller say “first  in the thread wins. 

 

He could take a screenshot of the PM with Miraclemet and prove by timestamp that he got it first. 

Or he could tell you nothing more and he sells the book to Miraclemet.

There’s no rule stating this.

He wrote "First takes it. "  I put  so where is the grey area here?

Maybe Miraclemet put  in his PM before you posted yours.

Thanks for saving me the typing, Andy

I'm not going to get into a flame war over this.  Its his book - I think its clear what the rules are here based on his instructions and the book should be mine to buy fair and square.  But he can sell it to whomever he wants.  

Thanks

if first  came in the PM, then it's the PM that wins, IMO

since the OP said first and didn't specify where. If he said " in the thread trumps PMs" then I'd say it belongs to dem1138
