wassup61 / stocklx (resolved)
Wassup61 had been going back and forth with me through email and asked for me to hold onto 5 cases of 5.45 for him until Monday. Deal was set with location and meeting time. Now tonight I get an email saying he has to back out due to someone backing out on him. I could have sold this over this weekend at the local gun show but he asked me to hold it for him and I did. I told him before I would even trade for just about anything gun or gun related so he don't have to come out of pocket. I will be leaving tomorrow night for nc for my grandfathers wake/funeral so even if he decides to make right it won't happen until I get back. I also might not be back on after tomorrow evening for a little while. Sorry for the long post
post all comms and remove any personal info such as emails, names, and phone numbers.
a mod will be along shortly to help.
Also make sure to send him an IM with a link to this thread.
Anyway someone can help me out with doing this? I have no clue how to do any of that honestly. I will try and figure it out in the meantime.
Edit to add: I let him know through email that I was making this post. He didn't seem to concerned.
Is this the ad in question?

wassup61 with a link to this thread.
Was going to purchase 5 caseso of ammo. The friend who was supposed to split the order had a personal emergency and had to back out. I do not have enough in my gun budget at this time to spend almost 1300 on ammo. I let him know in our communication.
Here is a link to the ad in question

Thank you. I take full responsibility for the welch. I couldn't continue with the purchase without splitting the cost. here to accept my punishment.

Yep that's what I meant to link here, it's fixed now.
The other link I had was for another deal I was working on this morning and I didn't have enough coffee in me.

You said you would take it .. you relied on someone that you shouldn't have.
Around here welching is a serious offense

The problem with setting up
deals for/with other people (especially when you don't have the funds
to cover what you spoke for) is your putting your account here on the
line for someone else if they back out.
Welching is taken very seriously here, so you might want to call that
friend and tell him to step up so you can step up here and complete this
deal, otherwise I have no choice but to have your account here locked for welching.
Wassup61 has emailed me and said he is going to make this deal happen according to schedule. I have no problem giving him a positive feedback if he makes good. I will report back in a few hours. Thanks, Bill
