i am not sure if this qualifies for a rating issue but,
i have sold some smaller items on astromart, eyepieces, barlows, focusers with no problem.
i now have two scopes listed for sale.
a 12.5 dob, the other 11" celestron.
i can not tell you how many offers have been made on both scopes and either these people seem to vanish after 1 e-mail, take hours to respond, or simply back out with crazy stories the next day after they swear to you its a deal.
people are making offers and then after e-mailing back and fourth for hours, they now need some time to come up with the money, or suddenly have health issues and the scope is too heavy.
where do you draw the line and should these people be rated somehow??
i myself have made offers and asked questions, but if i am not interested i always follow up with another e-mail like:
thanks not interested, or sorry too much for me, but good luck on the sale.
