Just a thought.
In trying to sell the Icom 718 I have had a number of responders who have left me hanging after the initial email.

Suggestion: If you respond to an ad and decide later not to purchase please have the courtesy to let the seller know in a decent amount of time!

Yep you're right. There seems to be more and more of this. That's about the only reason I like PayPal. If someone wants it they can send you the money right away.If you haven't received any money you can sell it to the next guy, IF and WHEN he sends the money. Or maybe even the third guy who says he'll buy it!

We have several of these threads and no matter who starts it or the numerous
replies guys are still inconsiderate and have no common courtesy.

They waste your time and effort by not replying after they said I will take it or the check is on the mail then my favorite, IT'S YOURS ! Then they sell it out from under you for a higher bidder as if this was scambay !!

How about you are waiting for funds and the guys tells you oh I changed my mind I found the item for $2 cheaper !!! Ha !!

Morals, consideration go a long way and don't waste others time with your indecision and inconsiderate actions or lack there of.
