How long should I wait

[gerbil]

Hi guys I was selling some gear and a user got in touch and we arranged a price and I was asked to give my details for payment as it was wanted
Now this was Friday
I've since had another user showing interest but can't get a reply or anything from the first user as I've asked if they still want it as I ve not heard anything since
The first user has been on line a good few times since then
So what should I do as I'm wanting to sell the item on a so I can buy something else as I'm on a one out one in rule
Any advice is most welcome

Sell it to the second guy who wants it, its you who is loosing out here.

It the first potential buyers loss.

That's what I was thinking but what if the first buyer pays me
I supposed I could just send payment back

[PaulRotheram]

Yup.. simple refund! message them saying what youve said. no harm done.

Sell it on and pm the first buyer straight away telling him its gone before he might pay you.

Bloody hell man! I'd have sold to the second bloke on sunday!
You are obviously a more tolerant bloke than me.

I have to admit I'm the most impaitant t person in the world but I have had to ask people wait till payday before I can buy something off them so I was being nice
But there was no mention of having to wait or anything

Sell it to who comes up with the money first simples unless the other guy asked you to keep it back till a certain day but if this is the case i would have asked for a deposit from him


If you sell to 2nd person and then the 1st comes forward and pays just refund him the money back

I have a memory like a chicken and may forget who I msg'ed, but thats my loss, not the chap selling.
