Low ball offer from newish members.

A lot of the time I get the ignorance card. Often I will be offering a lower offer but that's how I generally start. Offer low and haggle somewhere in between. That's beside the point though, its when you REALLY need that part and they read the message and don't reply. Not on here fortunately but its so damn annoying. Experiencing it right now.

I've got an idea. Next time someone makes stupid offer you could treat it with the contempt it deserves and ignore it.
I'm not sure if it's shock and upset at Lady Thatchers passing, but today seems to be a day for complaining about petty, minor and easy to ignore matters here in RB.

Ok, I'm having issues with lame arses.. 3 separate occasions, they ask for pics, info and quotes and I get back to them promptly for the 1st two enquiries ..No response back whatsoever. The 3rd time I'm not so prompt but I persist rather than ignore them, give the info they want & ASK for them to reply to me this time and still get nothing :x This is the same person btw.
Do you reckon it's an idea to tell 'em (politely) the error of their ways and to go away? Or shall I simply ignore them, grit my teeth(smile) and get over myself
I'm tempted to tell them like it is, mostly because I might be doing them a favour &, in all honesty, it would make me feel better!

Well we'd all feel like doing the second but the first is probably better. People are just plain odd, what can you do? Was at my lbs on Tuesday and mentioned to the owner I'd like him to build a 20mm wheel for me. He says OK then shows me this beautiful DeeMax wheel on a Saint hub he built last year. The guy took it in to get repaired last November said he'd be back to pick it up later. 6 months later it's still there, 200 quid wheel. I asked the lbs owner what he was gonna do and he just shrugged his shoulders. What can he do, make the guy come in and pick it up?

To bring the story a full circle, if it's still there in 6 months I'll make a cheeky offer on it. Wonder what the cost of the repair was?
