It doesnt matter HOW many times someone brings this subject it doesnt seem to make any difference WHATSOEVER on how people behave when it comes to.........'hi, you have a bla bla bla for sale, could you send me some pics please'. Now everyone who knows me knows im rubbish at the computer, so i go off and beg some poor misfortunate to come and take some, then to email to me...then I email the prospective purchaser (and i use the term lightly)/ nosey parker, and guess what............................................... ... you never get a reply, acknowledgment, pm, email, telephone callm telegram (do they still do telegrams???) NOTHING AT ALL........ when i have had a lie down in a darkened room with a couple of paracetamol for half an hour...i will try and find the strength and will to name and shame these very rude people.

well what gets my back up is people putting wanted adverts on here and when you reply to them they don't have the decency to reply even if to say it's not what they want, I bet I've replied to approx 10 adverts on here and only heard back from about 2 how rude is that

Its so hard to fathom out what to do, as i had a mare advertised and at the bottom i put no texts, time waisters or nosey emails an that sure as hell got rid of them all. In fact i havn't had a single phone call, an she is a lovely little mare.
Oh well better that way then the bull s*** you get from all those time waisters! Like i said previously if i had a £ for every time waister i have had over the past few years i could probably give up work for 6 months
Its a nightmare as you put in so much effort and time for nothing, admittedly there are the genuine ones, but as time goes on i found them few and far between

I'm afraid I'm going to play devils advocate now - when a friend was looking for a pony last year they travelled literally hundreds of miles all round the country to see so called clean-limbed horses (and we're not talking about cheap ones) - who invariably turned out to be anything but clean limbed - there are as many time-wasting vendors as there are buyers.

I went to see a pony once and it was everthing as advertised but her feet were shot to pieces. I didn't expect this to have been put in the advert but I replied to the ad via phone and I think it should have been mentioned then. I travelled quite a long distance and as I am a believer in the saying 'no foot, no horse' it was a complete no-no for me. So sometimes the vendors are at fault too.......

yes i agree with both of you but i think we are talking about simply courtesy of replying to emails etc, and returning pms just to say thanks but no thanks. You are quite right about having time wasted when actually getting as far as going to view a pony.

I also agree with both sides. selling on a pony or trying to like me. can be very heart breaking , part of me wants a buyer part of me dosent ,
I have also in the past been a buyer and just hate it when you travel so far away to find its not as discribed completly pointless !!
