• Responding to email notices you receive.
    **************************************************
    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Robert (Bob) Mackin.... Hope you don't need it in a hurry??

I think Jerry was being sarcastic... meaning that why should YOU give the seller another chance when obviously the seller could care less... and that perhaps the situation would have been different (ie you possibly giving the seller a second chance) HAD the seller tried to get hold of you and work things out.

Gotta love the internet sometimes - the written word can be interpreted in a lot of ways with no tone of voice to help :)
 
In that scenario, of course I would give him another chance HAD HE COME TO ME and explained what he did (forgot I paid for Priority, maybe??) and apologized.... No problem.... second chance coming up!!.... If he HAD done that, and THEN I refused to do biz with him again.... YES, I guess I COULD be blamed for that.... BUT....

IF we had ham, we could have ham and eggs, IF we had eggs....

It DIDN'T happen like that, so why even bring it up.... I guess I still don't get it....

The thing that got me confused, is Jerry knew (from my posts) that Bob NEVER got back to me to tell me ANYTHING??.... So why would I even CONSIDER giving him another chance.... Bob will never hear from me again....

we are on the same track! I was being sarcastic. The quote that I used, came from soneone elses post. I agree with you completely. JERRY
 
Whew.... Thanks, Jerry.... I THOUGHT I had a good command of the English language??.... I just couldn't figure it out??.... of course, I don't usually think of YOU and sarcasm going together.... lol

Havent heard from Bob either

I sent Bob Mackin ([email protected], an email replying to an ad on another site. It was for a rubber boa for $130 shipped. That was Friday, this is wednesday. I sent him the money as soon as I read the email, and havent heard back since. I have sent several email, gradually getting more aggaravated not hearing back after sending the cash to him. He had no problem asking me if I still wanted it and what email to paypal it to, but once that happened, i lost all communication with him. I have contacted paypal and the other site, as I have never heard of him and figured I got scammed.
I have never dealt with a more unproffesional person in my life.
A simple email is all I am asking for.
Is that too much to ask???????
Reading the thread abovemakes me feel a little better that someone knows of him and did gett their order, but I havent yet!!
Maybe this guy shouldnt be in business if he cant conduct it accordingly.
Pretty sad actually.
Just bad CR.
Am i wrong to be upset? Any other purchase I've made would be here in my hands by now.
