    Default Whats with the whiney folks in the For Sale section???

    AM I the only one that has noticed that when you tell folks your not interested in a particular offer that they get all butt hurt over that? Its as if whatever they are offering is made in gold and because they offered it and I need to jump right at it and get it instead of wasting their time for 2 or 3 short messages about the item back and forth.

    Wondering if anyone else is seeing this lately?

    Default What's with the whiney sellers or traders that can't decide or describe what they want?

    It's not the whiney folks but the vague traders or sellers. You said you wanted to trade for an M1A. Well, what kind of M1A? What brand, what barrel type or length, what stock configuration, what accessories? At no point or place in your add did you mention specifics so I offerd what I had and you turned it down. No you didn't waste my time but you didn't clearly state what you were looking for and I replied that you should post it in your add to keep people from offering what you don't want. If you don't describe what you want in the first place, don't start insulting the folks that offer you something. I can guaran-ass-tee you that the rifle I offered is far better than most newer Springfields. All GI parts, 100% reliable and a damn fine specimen. You are the whiney ass. I never implied this rifle is made of gold but you sure seem to think yours is. And as far as "Patience with dealing with people is probably a good thing to have exspecially in doing trades or buys from folks", maybe you should apply that to yourself. As you said, "Im not gonna waste your time. Im not interested in a Fed Ord M14. I just dont want to take the chance of getting a crappy rifle." Fine. I can live with that. But why don't you put that in your add?

    So like I stated in my message back to you since you want to make this public, I didnt know there was a Fed Ord M1A, never heard of them and you messaging me 2 times in the course of probably an hour(I dont have the messages because I deleted them) you get all butt hurt over the fact i did research on it and said I wasnt intereted in a Fed Ord and didnt want to get stuck with a shitty rifle. T, never did I state your particular rifle was shitty just F O in general,that really isnt wasting time. Your acting like your ice cream cone fell in the sand. I am not gonna put on there every fucking specific type of firearm that I want as that limits the possibilites of others that could be close to what I want. So the more specific as you request, will in reality limit the amount of limited responses we all get on this board as it isnt exactly the biggest board in the net.
    So now your wasting more time being all butt hurt over the fact I dont want your craptastic rifle, so who really is wasting whos time now? Think it is you wasting your own time.

    Like I already stated in the message back to you Aard
    Patience is a good thing to have when your dealing with folks in the process of trading, buying or selling firearms.

    In the future, Id recommend you chill out with folks and maybe even reconsider your mental state for dealing with folks and owning firearms. In my opinion, not a great combo to have, shitty temper and firearms that is.
