You guys are hard core sellers lol. Honestly if you set a time and person didn't' show or contact you sell it to the second buyer.
The problem is, sometimes that second buyer has already found something else....
When we first started using Craigslist, this was a commond scenario
Monday am:
Joe Buyer: Hi, I am interested in the table you are selling. I live in Bethesda, MD. I see you live in smalltown, VA. Where is that? Do you ever come to Bethesda?
Me: Hi Joe. Smalltown is (off X freeway at exit Y). We don't ever really get to Bethesda. Please let me know if you have any more questions or would like to set up a time to get the table. My phone number is xxx-xxx-xxxx.
Joe Buyer: Oh. Smalltown is really far from me. The earliest I will be able to come down on Saturday morning. Is that ok?
Me: That's fine. See you Saturday. Please call me for directions Saturday morning.
Then from Tuesday-Friday we'd get all sorts of people asking about the table--they live just a few miles away and "can pick up tonight!!!", etc.
and I'd hold them off, because Joe Buyer was coming Saturday morning...
Saturday would come, and Joe would never call...Finally by Sunday we'd ave given up on Joe, and contact some of those other interested people, but they'd already bought something else and no longer needed our table.
So we'd wasted a week on Joe...
Things like that happened several times to us.
