PrincessMommy Posted June 8, 2012 Share Posted June 8, 2012 I haven't sold many items on craigslist and have a question. I'm selling our refrigerator and someone contacted me to buy it (or rather he's "really interested" in the fridge). We negotiated a time but he can't come until 8pm tonight. Then someone else contact me and said he's ready to buy if it works and can come by to pick it up earlier today. Should I put the 2nd guy off until the 1st person has a chance to look at it? I told the 2nd person there was another interested party. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaxMom Posted June 8, 2012 Share Posted June 8, 2012 Yes. You should tell the second guy he can come tomorrow, or you'll contact him if the first guy decides to buy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrincessMommy Posted June 8, 2012 Author Share Posted June 8, 2012 Wendy, I've had that happen on freecycle too... so that was a bit of a concern. I'm just going to do what Angela suggests (and you too really) and have the 2nd guy wait. Thanks! I kind of knew it was the right thing to do but just needed someone to hold my hand. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tammyla Posted June 8, 2012 Share Posted June 8, 2012 I'm not sure, and haven't sold anything via CL...But when I freecycle stuff, I always say first person to take it gets it. I'd hate to see you loose the sale for someone who was just interested vs. someone who is going to pay and haul it away. But...I'd feel bad and I'm not sure what I'd do.
