I spend my time and phone credit to call my friend to get a van for transport (since transportation not provided). When everything is prepared for today's COD, I received an sms from soonhooi telling me that he sold the items to another buyer yesterday midnight!

What I've lost :
1. Time for arranging transport and calling friends.
2. My phone credit for calling seller and friends.
3. Energy for negotiating with my housemates coz the items supposed to be shared by all of us.
4. My housemate's trust.

My question to the seller :
1. Is it ethical to sell the items to another buyer when you have reserved the items to me?
2. Why wouldn't you answer my phone call? I called you after receiving your sms telling me the items was sold. And called you a few times more until now I decide to put it in dispute. Running away from responsibility?

Edit : Already PM soonhooi about this topic.

The problem is, I've lost time arranging transport etc. And now seller casually telling me it's sold. I've lost time, money and energy.

seller reserves the right to sell his stuff to anyone, since no deposit or money was exchanged.

but since both of u have "verbally" agreed on a deal and he backed out the last minute, i think this is the last sale he'll ever do in LYN. i doubt anyone else would trust him with money after this incident.

Thanks for the comment. Appreciate it notworthy.gif

I understand that seller have the right to sell his stuff to someone else since I didn't give deposit. But at least let me know that he's going to sell it to higher offer so that I can cancel my transport arrangement.. Now I'm stuck sad.gif

After agreeing to do something sometone should hold to that promise even if other offers are more tempting.  I simply hate that.  Kena a couple of times nad after travelling so far.

Agreed. Ofcoz will feel angry if kena ffk or promise not kept. Sigh.

He should have informed you that he received a better offer at the time he receieved the offer and not conviently SMS just as you about to go get it. That is irresponsible.

How long does it take to write a SMS I ask? And if it is just 1 or 2 days before the Cash and Carry (COD means you pay him when he delivers to you, too many people make that mistake tongue.gif) he shouldn't have accepted any offers.

Yeah.. Imagine how I feel when I receive an SMS in the morning telling me to forget about the deal. Could have let me know before selling to other ppl, with the reason for deal cancellation. Then I can do my part in cancelling my transport arrangement.

This morning really kelam kabut cancel everything. You should have seen my housemate's face, disappointed. More over, seller could at least pick up my call la. Why is it easy to reply my SMS but so hard to pick up my call?
