Senior member, simply refers to the amount of posts a person has made. Once they're over 100 posts by a member, they are a "senior member". It has nothing at all to do with what knowledge they have.

Also before doing business with a person look at their reefer rating and see if it's someone you would like to do business with. I personally do not deal with certain people, I've found to be flakes or just all around bad people.

You live, you learn.

Even "senior members" like me learn these lessons.
Today I though I had bought something, and someone offered him more money than he asked and he grabbed the money. Then had the nerve to ask if I wanted to outbid the outbidder. Just BS. It's tough to figure out. In a population of 3000+, there are going to be some bad apples.

I posted my experience, very politely I might add, on the thread for the item in question (nitrate monitor). The thread was shortly thereafter deleted. Not sure why, or by whom.

I agree! the bad thing is that, at least on Craigslist.. you move on... and might never see that person again.. here on MR.... you see them constantly...

I would tell him to keep it, dealing with somebody like that isn't even worth the time

Where did your read that?


Items for Sale:
First Post option: It is common courtesy to sell a priced item to the first person that responds publicly that they will buy the item with no strings attached. You are free to sell the item to the last person that responds, or not deal with specific individuals, but this is generally enough to earn you a reputation as a “bad reefer”. If you have a similar item for sale as another member please post it in another thread being sure to not badmouth anyone else in that thread. Price negotiations should be kept to PM’s and not posted publicly in threads.

I hate when people ask for you address and what days and times you are available. And then you never hear back from the them. Luckily I live in an apartment building and don't provide my apartment number.

Same here. I don't provide anyone with my building or APT number, until they are on my block. When they get the my block, they give me a call and I give them the building number, simple.

Well...

I think you need to re-read what you just copied.
