UNABASHED Posted June 26, 2010 Share Posted June 26, 2010 that can approve my post in a for sale thread? I keep thinking I've 'won' an item that's for sale as I'm posting my dibs first, only to find out that actually 4 people have already dibsed me out of the picture Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UNABASHED Posted June 26, 2010 Author Share Posted June 26, 2010 would be exciting if I ever actually managed to be the first person to try buy an item! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATTAK Z Posted June 26, 2010 Share Posted June 26, 2010 the delay causes as much frustration for the seller as it does for the buyer ......... I'm not sure if there is a way round this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Posted June 26, 2010 Share Posted June 26, 2010 the delay causes as much frustration for the seller as it does for the buyer ......... I'm not sure if there is a way round this Its called a PM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This dibs business is crap, send the pm saying you want it & pay for it simples but if the buyer doesn't PM everyone ..... that's 1st 2nd 3rd 4th etc. ........ back then you're don't know if you 1st or 2nd or etc.and you therefore don't know if you've bought the item (as in the case of UNABASHED above) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If your first the seller lets you know, if not then you get told its been sold Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UNABASHED Posted June 26, 2010 Author Share Posted June 26, 2010 I PM'd first then posted in for sale thread, that's not the point I am making. What I am saying is that the seller is not online so I have no idea if I PM'd him first or not, and the fact that the thread cannot be updated also means there's no way I know if anyone else has posted before me!

Ian Posted June 26, 2010 Share Posted June 26, 2010 So, wait until he comes online, not everyone will post after sending a PM so in that case you wouldn't know anyway Once the seller is online then you will have your answer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris`I Posted June 27, 2010 Share Posted June 27, 2010 TBH guys, Ian is right, unfortunately, you just have to PM and wait. We should have the team around most of the time, but if we're not here you just have to wait. The first thing we usually do when coming online is to check if posts/threads are waiting for approval. We should have somethig in the pipeline to solve this though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
