MUCH more info needed.Is there a reporting procedure for a buyer who doesn't complete his side and doesn't pay?
I will assume this is a NES transaction that didn't happen.Is there a reporting procedure for a buyer who doesn't complete his side and doesn't pay?
Guy probably sobered up after agreeing to pay $65 for AK mags.
He didn’t provide anything related to what’s wrong and with a product.I will assume this is a NES transaction that didn't happen.
Having 3 positive Feedback, I would assume you have already left feedback on others, checking your feedback given confirms this (although you only left 1 positive feedback, lame).
So, there is your answer.
That being said, negative feedback is like Herpes, so if you will give someone NES Herpes, it should be deserved.
Edit to add (this will sound mean so don't read if easily offended):
If the way you started this thread is any indication of your communication skills, maybe the buyer is not to blame for whatever happened.

We'd have an NES Herpes epidemic if everyone reported buyers that didn't follow through.That being said, negative feedback is like Herpes, so if you will give someone NES Herpes, it should be deserved.

@Bob P was selling a firearm. I arranged to look at it on a Saturday morning. On Friday morning told him I couldn’t make it. He then neg repped me for “backing out.” Had not agreed to purchase, just to see it. So I naturally retaliated, citing “poor communication.” All unnecessary.Leave negative feedback if they agreed to a price and time + location to complete the transaction. At least leave a neutral comment if they were stringing you along then ghosted you.
If merch shipped and no payment provided or payment was rescinded, leave neg rep and decide whether or not you want to involve the po-po.
Parts are a different story. I’ve never done or been treated wrong on everything I’ve done here.@Bob P was selling a firearm. I arranged to look at it on a Saturday morning.

So now whether buying or selling specify sale and price are contingent on inspection. Who buys a used firearm without looking at it?
With good enough pics and description plus a guarantee that it is as described, some sales are closed remotely. An agreed upon price and an agreement to pay on X day is worthy of a neg rep if the buyer then ghosts the seller. Backing out last minute might be worthy of at least a neutral comment.@Bob P was selling a firearm. I arranged to look at it on a Saturday morning. On Friday morning told him I couldn’t make it.

I have because I know if it sucks I can still list it here for 300.00 over new and it’ll fit right in. lolWho buys a used firearm without looking at it?

Why do my spider senses tingle like we have a new “Chris” incident??
Maybe it’s Chris from NES.Why do my spider senses tingle like we have a new “Chris” incident??
In my opinion it is inspect and purchase at the same time. Only reason to reject a gun is if there is something not mentioned in the post or shown in pics, like one side has a bunch of rust, or when you rack the slide it feels like something is very wrong. I have never had that happen on NES.I'd like to add that some stuff is ridiculous to have to check out before agreeing to buy. It's pretty f-ing rude to ask someone to drive to meet you for a used low round count Glock in basically mint condition- only to say nah, not what I'm looking for. I'll not only neg feedback you, I'll start a thread to mock you. Just kidding (sort of)
Not on NES but I dealt with a guy in 2003 when I selling my 03 XC800. He drove to the house with his trailer and tried shorting me 500 bucks. He was shocked standing in my kitchen as I was telling him to GTFO of my house and I wasn’t joking.Always make clear the price negotiation is over before the meet. Unless a buyer finds some fault I missed, I don’t accept further negotiation at the exchange. I’ve only been burned once and sent the guy home.

He dug into his other pocket and ponied it up.
Said he had to try.
Yep. If there's a problem I'd have no problem with someone backing out. If I overlooked a clear issue, I might even offer a price reduction to compensate. Assuming no unknown issues with the gun?

Besides that, you saw the damn pics, you already know what you are getting. Backing out like that is sh*t.
