The seller had and still has no obligation to sell to you. He also stated that it was posted elsewhere. Would you be as equally impudent if he said that it sold elsewhere that morning? It is completely your fault for assuming that you “purchased” the package from him before even confirming it with him. Since you want to try to guilt trip the seller on the story about your grandson maybe consider the fact the original buyer who messaged the seller far before you was also purchasing the package as a gift for someone and you just ruined that chance out of spite. Again shame on you for being so entitled.NOT EMBARRASSED AT ALL ... WHAT PART OF "THOSE RULES ARE WHAT KEEP THINGS "FAIR" FOR ALL" DON'T YOU UNDERSTAND? I DO A LOT OF SELLING AND BUYING ON THIS FORUM BECAUSE THERE ARE "RULES" ... IF YOU DON'T LIKE THE RULES HERE ... GO TO GUNBROKER ...
I CALLED MY GRANDSON AND TOLD HIM I BOUGHT HIM A BIRTHDAY PRESENT .. A PACKAGE FOR HIS 9.3X62 RIFLE .... AND THEN THIS WHOLE SELLING POSTING WENT SOUTH ... IT PISSES ME OFF TO HAVE TO PASS ON A SECOND HAND APOLOGY ..
Agreed, I’ve seen some sellers say in their posts they will honor the first “I’ll take it” but some sellers(like the OP) also state please PM….Just curious, is there another Rules section? This is all I see and it says nothing about a public I'll take it.

REALLY? .... I GOT THIS POST FROM HIM VIA A DM ... SO I ASSUMED I HAD PURCHASED THE LOT.It is completely your fault for assuming that you “purchased” the package from him before even confirming it with him.
I was at work and read it three times looking for the “I’ll take it” rule. Still haven’t found itJust curious, is there another Rules section? This is all I see and it says nothing about a public I'll take it.

Even upon reexamining the timeline there is absolutely no reason that you should be defending buckstix lol. Why would you defend a grown adult throwing a temper tantrum? As soon as the OP explained the situation any sane reasonable person would’ve been done with it and moved on…. not this fellow. Rather he went on to lambast the OP and then accuse him of being a scammer. To me this is sad deplorable behavior that should be called out and not defended whatsoever, which is why I said what I said originally.I have no dog in this fight, but I will add my 2 cents worth of opinion.
The seller first posted at 9:06am and received a PM from a buyer at 9:40am saying they will take it all. At this point, the seller should have posted "SPF".
At 1:30 pm, a member posted an offer for part of the package. At 1:37pm, the seller replied "No, selling everything together." There was no mention of "SPF." To the casual reader, it would appear the items are still available.
At 1:38pm, another member posted an offer for part of the package. At 1:43pm, the seller replied "No, selling everything together." There was no mention of "SPF." Once again, it appears the items are still available.
The seller's failure to post "SPF" is what created this mess.
@buckstix posted at 1:47pm, "PM sent, I will take all."
I don't personally know any of the participants in this thread, but believe they are all honorable AH members. People that have made comments and criticisms toward @buckstix should re-examine the timeline.

shit happens, all the anger over $130.00 worth of reloading supplies.Christ sake my man you sound like an absolutely nightmare buyer…. Are you that upset you missed out on some reloading components? I don’t see it very virtuous to lambast this man for saying someone DM’d him. You single handedly ruined another persons deal because he didn’t post on the actually listing and followed the sellers instructions to PM him. I would be embarrassed if I were you.
Just remember this....Ol' Hedge loves yuns!!! And mean it, too!!!!
