How Far Do You Go
How far do you go for a fellow participating member of an on-line community?
If there is a tackle maker who sells on-line and is also a contributing member of an on-line community you participate in do you try their products as a "neighborly" thing to do? Maybe place a bigger order than you would to try somebody elses new products? If they have some issues with filling a pre-paid order how long do you wait before getting nasty? a. With them? b. Publicly? Do you just write it off and walk away? Do you tear them a new one with published vitreole in the on-line community? 77 days and counting. -- Bob La Londe Fishing Arizona & The Colorado River Fishing Forums & Contests http://www.YumaBassMan.com -- Posted via a free Usenet account from http://www.teranews.com |

I trust most everyone until they break that trust, and if they do, it's their problem not mine! I'm not a "patsy", but I avoid negative situations and people as much as posible....life is fun, I intend to keep it that way! :) John |

I have had to walk away from many thousands of dollars over the years. People that went bankrupt, didn't pass on money paid for a service, etc, or just plain old loans that were never paid back. Believe it or not I get over those prettyy quickly. In this cases its a regular in an on-line community I frequent. They even sent me some free samples a long while back. Between those two things I decided to support them and made a larger order than I really needed. I've gotten multiple replies saying, they will get it shipped soon, they would add some extra free stuff to make up for it, then a bunch of extra free stuff to make up for it, etc, but push comes to shove its been 77 days now. -- Bob La Londe The guy who decides who we do business with. -- Posted via a free Usenet account from http://www.teranews.com |

Call me a **** if you'd like, but I consider my needs first and foremost. All of my wants and needs (thus far) have been met by the usual manufacturers and retailers and I don't buy from forum members just for the sake of buying to do them a "favor." I suppose they'd all go broke if everyone was like me. If someone follows the old business success formula ("find a need and fill it") and has something useful that is otherwise unavailable, then I wouldn't hesitate to place an order. |

In this cases its a

Why not be entirely straightforward and name names, instead of casting anonymous aspersions which can harm innocent and respected participants on this forum? |

Because there is always the chance their excuses are legit and they might come through. |

At least if they are still corresponding with you that is a good
sign. My son recently ordered an item off of ebay. I paid with pay pal and never received the item. I repeatedly tried to contact the seller and they would not respond to any of my emails. Finally I filed a complaint with ebay and pay pal and that same day the seller responded and refunded my money. I have never had any bad deallings with anyone I know on a forum but as long as they are talking to you I would give them the benefit of the doubt. If it does end up not going well then I would post the situation just so other people don't end up with the same problem. Gary |
