I've sent you several emails. The HK P30L V1 that you requested that I order for you arrived early last week. I would like to complete this transaction. Please contact me ASAP so we can proceed.

Thanks

To the top.

Final attempt here.

Steve,

I ordered a gun for you at your request. I extend the courtesy of not collecting payment until I have merchandise in hand to Sig Forum members because 1) I am operating a business and 2) the people here are top notch. You have not held up your end and followed through with payment (or FFL information) by replying to any of the messages that I have sent to either of your accounts. I have checked in with management here and know that you have logged into the forum since I sent you an invoice with payment instructions.

Please contact with me forthwith to conclude this transaction.

Thanks

gambit123, you logged into this forum yesterday, so you have seen DaBigBR's post and yet you have not responded.

Most people in this life come up short on cash at one time or another, or change their mind, or have some other reason for failing to honor a deal they have made.

This is understandable, but your silence is not. You took advantage of the man's trust. He laid out several hundred dollars on your word. He trusted you, and this is how you behave, and it is unacceptable.

I'm giving you an opportunity to speak up. Candor and honesty go a very long way with me. Everyone makes mistakes. Owning up to those mistakes is something we have within our power to do. You need to treat this man the way you would want to be treated if the situation were reversed.

Speak up

OK, gambit, I see you logged in today, and you still don't have the courtesy to speak up or to complete your transaction.

The man laid out several hundred dollars for you and you just slinked away. You could have owned up and said you found yourself in a bind, and you would have been alright, but due to your poor behavior, you have lost access to Classifieds, which is effectively a self-banishment, because no one hangs around after they're restricted from accessing a part of the forum.

This is on you, all the way. You could have handled it like a man, but you chose otherwise.
