You give your word and back out, you're at best a flake, at worst you're a liar. And you're word no longer means
anything...
You've got it backwards.. the saying is "Buyer Beware" Throughout history it's the buyer who ges screwed.. why do you think there is a consumer protection agency and not a seller protection agency.
No the seller said I had dibs... and it doesn't matter he had something for sale I said I'd take it. We had a deal.. and he flaked out.. it's simple. AND I didn't back out I gave my word.. here's where we differ when I say I'll take it I WILL NOT BACK OUT I am good at my word. Unfortunately no one else is... based on your take on this that's the reality that people's word and honor mean nothing.

This is why "dibs" does not have any place in this market.
"Dibs" isn't real. It doesn't do anything. It doesn't provide the seller any guarantee that you are actually committing to buy, other than you said the word "dibs" LOL.
Here's the way I operate: Unless you put a deposit down, I will sell it to whoever can pay me. Should the seller refuse immediate cash offers because you said "dibs"? What if you said "un-dibs" later? Seller has zero recourse.
Just my two cents.Leave a comment:

So not cool of any seller to do this.Leave a comment:

I wouldn't say they are flakes but obviously parts are in high demand and a lot of sellers don't have any sales etiquette so money talks. I had a similar situation happen to me twice and I was just dumbfounded by it but whatever. I just won't do business with these people in the future.Leave a comment:

So it happened again.. a board member listed stuff for sale I PM'd and we agreed that I had dibs etc. I was awaiting instructions for payment and WHAM - "Oh I hate to do this but I found a local buyer."
Is it me or are E30M3 owners a bunch of flakes?Leave a comment:
