I cannot abide ignorant people, you send them an email responding to their adverts and they don't respond!!!! And yes it is about people on here, that read PM's and simply don't have the courtesy to say "I'm not interested".
It really really grates on me!!!

It's just so rude, why place an advert if when people take the time to respond you can't take the time to say you're not interested?
I was inundated when I put an advert up for a colt. I took the time to reply to each an everyone of the people that sent me a message.

Just nip in the 'Non horsey Items Wanted' section carrie, it will cheer you up and you will forget all about it.

the otherside of the coin is people advertising items for sale , which you reply to , and they dont reply , why advertise if you are not going to respond  |

Am selling a body protector, measurements etc (in cms and inches) on the ad. Had someone PM me asking for the size, so I repeated them. Never heard a squeak since. It is frustrating yes, but no point stressing over something like that - you'd go bonkers if you did! Have a glass of wine Carrie and try to forget about it!

It did make me giggle untill I realised that this poster has put a wanted advert on for tack for his riding school! Wouldn't be sending my kids there and actually makes me feel quite ill!  |

I love the " CAN YOU SEND PHOTOGRAPHS PLEASE " brigade . Perfectly understandable if it's a horse/tweed jacket/something complicated but I have seen people requesting pics of
childs pale blue show shirt size 26" - " Can you send me a photo please ?"
48" brand new black stirrup leathers - " Can you send me a photo please ?"
a 5" stainless steel eggbutt snaffle - "Can you send me a photo please
and my favourite
a plain white self - tie stock - " Can you ..........

But to be fair flee when you buy something you want to see a pic, or at least I do after buying a set of smb sprots medicine boots only worn twice to find when they arrived that yes they probably had been worn only twice but they failed to mention the mice that had used one if the straps as bedding in their nest!

As I said - if it's something complicated fair enough .
But a stainless steel eggbut snaffle will look like a stainless steel eggbutt snaffle , etc etc ...
