Poll: Crap, now what have I done?

[Viper GTS]

This guy over in FS/FT had a post looking for dead hardware. I mentioned I had a dead GF2, & to let me know if he was interested. Next thing I know, I have two PM's in my box. I replied in the order they'd been received, by time stamp. The guy that was first got the first crack at it. I told the second guy that, & his response was "Well since you offered it to me in my thread shouldn't it have go to me first?" I didn't recognize either of the names, so I didn't realize that the originator of the thread had even PM'd me.

NOW WTF do I do? The first guy has already agreed to $40 shipped for it, now what?

Tell the guy who made the thread that he was too slow and that it is already sold and that maybe next time chum.

 

[Viper GTS]

Sold it to guy #1.

Hate it when stuff like this happens. Always end up feeling like a real asshole.

Didn't mean to step on any toes. I'll be offline until tomorrow so feel free to pull responses from my thread. I'll be back in the AM

How'd you manage $40 for a piece of DEAD hardware?

 

[snow patrol]

I have to say Viper, I reckon you probably should have sold it to the guy who posted first in the thread to ask for it...Just MHO, hope you don't mind.

 

[ltk007]

There's a simple solution you've been overlooking the whole time viper...

















Buy another GF2, hit it with a hammer, and sell it to guy #2

 

[snow patrol]

Hit Evan with the hammer while you're at it. Several times to make sure he doesn't get up again.

Thanks for the new sig snow patrol....

 

[RipRidah]

I think you should've sold it to the guy you replied to in the thread, but it's your hardware so you can do what you want.

Viper,

Don't feel too bad...as somebody mentioned they'll probably turn it around, shrinkwrap it into a box and try to return it for a working GF2 somewhere! Why the heck else are you gonna buy a GF2? To make a keychain out of the GF2 chip?

GL, some people do that actually- others do the return scamola, others try to fix it, others use it as soldering practice, and others use it as a practical joke.

Though most use it as the return scam- it's a shame.
