PMed You

[Espeefan]

It's easier to say 'PMed you' then to say 'I would like to call first dibs on that item you have listed for sale.' The problem is sometimes everyone wants the same item, and I know I look to see who replied first to the for sale thread, and then I check PMs.

I agree with Travis on this. when someone has multiple items for sale instead of i PMed you just type in what your interested in it is that simple.

I am not saying your way is wrong but this is what I was taking about just because some one post PMed ya doesn't mean they were the first to pm you especially the new guy who hasn't been on a forum before and doesn't know how you, me or another member does things on the forum and from the response I received we all have different ideas of how it should work.

I send PMs all the time asking if stuff is sold so we can delete threads that are no longer needed but if the member that started the thread puts up a (please delete) post when the deal is done it would help out a lot.

Thanks to everyone who responded. I am happy with the response's to this thread it gives some ideas on etiquette for the buy sell section. I can understand the PMed ya on a single item add but when it involves multiple items it gets confusing. Every time some one post PMed ya and PMed ya back it alerts you that there are new post in that thread and I just wasted time to look at PMed ya back instead of the parties involved looking at their new messages
