Can't contact buyer....

DF3000 · 01-07-2011, 10:32:39 AM

Hi Guys

I sold a site through the forum this week, but have not been able to get hold of the buyer to complete the sale

What is the general forum etiquette on how long I should wait before giving up and re-offering to other bidders who missed out?

The offer was via PM, and since then have contacted the winner 3 times via PM, but had no reply

Should i wait a week then re-offer; should I post a thread on the forum asking them to contact me?

Any thoughts on what is acceptable as dont want to upset if there is a genuine reason for the delay

Cheers

Jon

View their profile and it may tell you when they were last online.

If they have been online since your PMs, then the general view from what I have seen, seems to be to make a public post on the forum requesting a reply before re-offering for sale.

Thanks for advice

Just checked and he has not been online since PM offer sent.

Will give until Tuesday, then that has been a week - cant say fairer than that
