Imo.  If you dont have money in my hands.  Its up for grabs.  I just sold my kayak a couple months ago.  The guy was overly upset I agreed to show it to him on the weekend.  I also mentioned if he is on his way to see it from Sacramanto i would hold it for him.  Any tome before that i cant hold it.  I dont call stores to hold items for me.  So i dont expect people to do it either.  First come first serve.   Just like buying a home.  car.  Etc.   

From a sellers point.  That needs the cash.  Why chance someone flaking out instead of the guy standing infront of you handing you money.  Foolish.  I say.  Its because i sold items on CL.  Waste my day waiting for no shows.
Yeah I called the guy too, before I left my house on my way, called again around Fairfield and called again as soon as I enter SAC area, as I turn right to his street saw car pass by with Kayak on top of his car, felt that cold shaking thing saying thats the Kayak I was about to buy. BAM called the guy ring his doorbell. Stepped out and told me he just sold it to another guy who gave him extra $50 for the asking price.. :smt013

Yeah.  I read your post before.  In that case.  Yes it sucks to drive and waste your time as a buyer.  It happended to me also.  I did mention to this guy.  If he was on his way i would hold it for him even if i got offered more.  I even had a lady hand me a deposit when i sold my x5.  Brought her family and all for a test drive.  Held it for a week. 

I made a commitment not to sell myself and time short and worry about my sale first.  I always keep promises though. 

I worked in sales for a bit too. I had a kid txt me about my tundra for a few days.  I answered all his questions. In the end he said he will check with his granpa for cash.  It did not hurt my time for txting.  So I gave him the benefit.  In the end he did show up with his grandpa. Handed me 11k for the truck.  Goes to show. You never know.

Dang, right Kayak, but the color.. I like being bright and visible on the water even though boaters cant really see our hulls until they are right up on us.. Considering reflective / colored tape.. Bumping this thread as it is still listed for sale! Thanks for the heads up.
