PM with intent - is that really needed?

Recommended Posts

Stewart
It doesn't bother me enough to start a thread about it but I agree it's pointless. I don't agree that it puts any pressure on the seller though!

 

I'll expand on both those points since I'm in the middle of a tricky poo so I got time on my hands...

 

I agree it's pointless because when I refresh RWG the first thing I notice is if I've got a PM there's a big red "1" on my inbox, and I'll check that before I check for any new posts on my threads, especially if I'm selling something. So I'm gonna see your PM long before I see your post telling me you've PM'd, ergo your post alerting me to something I already know is pointless!!

 

I disagree with it putting pressure on a seller because a) as already mentioned I've had your PM and probably already replied to it by the time I see the post but more importantly b) it actually puts pressure on the person posting to say they've PM'd with intent!!! How?! Well you've just needlessly bumped my sales thread, making it more likely that someone else will see it and PM me an offer too... and maybe I go with their offer, maybe it's higher, maybe they're a VIP member and you're not, maybe they're prettier than you are (I can be won over with sexual favours)!!

 

So there ya go, that's my two cents... now PUSH... damn subway beef melt!!!!

.....you're never going to get any sexual favours offered now you've talked about your complicated number 2.

 

Do you have the intent to push?

 

More like a BM with intent.

This.................

 

It's to let the op know you have sent them a personal message with an intention of purchasing the item, if the said item is still for sale, they're more likely to be hovering around the sales thread than their in box.

 

Seems the op is another one of those who's been a member for 5 mins and thinks he (or indeed she) can change how the game is played here........if you don't like it...... :finger:

 

and this.........

 

Also a way of marking the thread so that you can follow it yourself if the seller doesn't take your offer... makes it easier to find in 'Your Content'

It's all BS post whoring. Same as " if I only had the funds" or, hey fellas, jump on this one before it's too late," or, " I have the same watch, only with..." Or, " it's a beauty better buy it fast."

 

Who the fuck cares if you don't have the money. The seller only cares if you have the money to buy.

If the watch is so great, why aren't you buying it yourself

Again, this is a sales thread, who the fuck cares if you have the same watch,mare you going to buy another

I tried search and got lots of sales results so I thought I would pose the question here.

 

Why bother with PM with intent? I get the idea that you are really excited about the watch but there are other buyers out there with equal excitement. I my mind I don't think a sale is done until either agreed or funds sent. The PM with intent is basically doing the kids game of calling dibs and putting the onus on the seller to hold an item with no real collateral and the real possibility of loosing out of other sales.

 

I could be off on this, it could be because of my sales background, but I just feel it is unfair to sellers to do the PM with intent thing. What do you guys think?

 

FYI - this is going to be a post and run for about an hour until I get to work then I will check replies and respond.

 

 

My opinion is ALL offers and conversations should be in the thread - PM only required to exchange payment details.

 

Payment with intent to me screams of low balling.
