fishaholic911 messaged me wanting a handful of things I was selling and we arranged to pickup the following weekend when fishaholic911 was able to come out here (he/she said noon on Saturday the 18th). In that time, I passed over other interested parties.

Before noon on pickup day, I sent a confirmation along with phone number to reach me.
time went by. Nothing
Message. Nothing.
Message. Nothing.
Later that evening, fishaholic911 was browsing the forum on but refused to reply to me. http://i.imgur.com/Gc9eprU.png
Messaged yesterday. Nothing
Still nothing.

Deadbeat buyer. Beware.
 
Yeah that is weird I picked up few of his items and asked when he is planning on restarting he told me he is not planning on it
 
This same guy was trying to low ball me and take a Blue Hippo tang off my hands for $40 which is a decent deal for the fishes size. He said he'd give me $10.

Deadbeat.

Unfortunately, I've learned that a lot of people that are interested in this hobby locally are flakes. I can't count the amount of times I've had someone say they wanted to buy frags, I cut them and mount them and they never show up or have the courtesy to respond and let you know.

I feel you, i was left the same with some stuff in my tank, some people literally left me hanging with cut frags and interested in picking up the reef ready tank i have.
I like to keep in contact either via text or email but leaving a fellow hobbiest wondering if you are coming or not is def not courteous to their personal time.
