Given how sure you were that the seller here violated them I was positive that you knew what they were....

 

 

Thanks.

I read all 17 rules. Which one applies to PMs?

I can't find it.

This thread illustrates why sellers should read the rules and have a return policy, payment terms, shipping costs and where they will ship, and clearly who gets the book when there is a dispute.

If the seller says first  wins, how could you possibly think it goes to dem?  

 

Miraclemet has proven that he took it first

[thirdgreenham]

And yes, the seller felt pressured to sell it to dem. 100%

And I never said seller violated anything.

My interpretation of 1st "I'll take it wins" was 1st post on the boards stating such.

I haven't been here nearly as long as you and I have much to learn.

Thank you for clarifying that PM "I'll take its" are perfectly acceptable and trump public "I'll take its" if time stamp indicates it was first.

I had no idea...

There isn't one, which means we can't make one up that communications in thread are superior.

When the rules are silent it defaults to seller's terms. 

Seller's terms were FIRST and not IN THREAD.

He didn't violate board rules.

He didn't violate his own rules.

That's the whole point. There is no rule stating that a thread vs a PM  trumps the other, It's up to the seller.

Since the seller said the first  wins, without saying the takeit in the thread trumps PM, then the first , which came via PM won.

Clearly Miraclemet's book.

Anyone that wants to put up a stink about it needs to check their moral compass.

You can feel free to run your sales threads in any way you see fit. 

What you can't do is impose your way of doing business on how other people choose to do business within the rules of these boards.

The time stamp is settled practice and is the fairest possible way to see who got in first, who committed first, and who gets the book. The rest is, frankly, the second one through the door attempting to lawyer the thread to his advantage and create language and rules that don't exist. AKA Sour Grapes, and it's garbage that this seller has to feel pressured and cornered into changing the equitable and fully justified manner in which he ran his thread and determined the new owner of the book.

Thanks to everyone for clearing this up for me.

My opinion was clearly wrong.

[Transplant]

Ah, this again.

I don't care who gets the book. Hey @Holmes, throw the darn thing up for auction here on the boards. C'mon boys, it'll be fun!

But I agree about having rules clearly stated. Whatever those ryles may be...

I mean, I know what the rules are, and I abide by them.

However, should sellers be allowed a little flex if clearly stated in their thread??

Food for thought.

He did?  Did he tell you that directly or did you decide that for him?  I wrote on this thread that it was his book and he could sell it to who he wanted to.  We also PMd and he gave it some thought and came to his own decision.   You wrote "100%" as if you know for certain that he felt this way, but if you don't, then you should apologize.  Thanks.
