I posted my LF Cochins on here and Craigslist, I was contacted , by someone from BYC, sent pics, ordered a box after they picked out 3 and said I will PP you $ on a certain date. This person has done business with a couple others on here and always was on the up & up so I trusted her. Waited, day for pp came and went, I emailed and PM'd, after a couple days got a PM saying family sick etc etc would be the next week. A couple days later she responded to my email with a slightly different "story" , now would be about 2 weeks before payment can be sent. Well in the meantime, I had someone from CL contact me, I told her I had someone interested and would let her know what was left, this happened in the beginning. After the second, "excuse" I contacted the CL person, they already bought birds. So now I am out $$ I really did not have on a box, and lost a sale on birds elsewhere because this "original" buyer has left me hanging. If you can get to a computer long enough to email and PM, why the heck can't you PP???????
I had someone else contact me about some laying hens, was supposed to meet them this weekend, they also put me off...... at least I have not lost money on that sale.
