Why I Can't PM You First

Post by TheGipper »

I get at least 2-3 PMs a week asking, "Hey, can you give me a heads up before you sell something the next time?"

Normally I'm an accommodating sort, but I'm sorry, I can't possibly start doing that.  That "PM me first" list would be at least 50 names long by now.  So assuming I give a reasonable amount of time for each person to respond (let's say 12 hours).  My gorilla math says that it could potentially take me near a full month in order to actually get something posted to TSBC.

And all that is assuming I am willing to take on the effort to actually implement that.  And that a big "no way".

It's not me being rude, folks.  Sorry, but I won't give out any rights of first refusal to anyone.  So you can stop sending me PMs about that.

You guys can make your comments, but TheGipper is one of the best sellers on OLH.  First class all the way.  Doesn't need to try and sort out hundreds of requests.  And why should he?  His FS posts are sold out in a matter of minutes, every single time!  That says a lot about the guy.

Hey! How come "Habana" is written on here with a Sharpie ?!?

I was just making a joke.  I did one deal with him in the past -- great seller.

I guess the PM requesters could just order themselves if it hurts so much to miss out. :rotf:

Great to see a seller who donates to the site too...so many sell here and never donate a dime.

I commend you for selling at your prices too...they are always fair, but asking for a PM before you list things so people can cherry pick what they want is an absurd request.

Keep doing what you have been doing... and thanks.
