| Why give the option to ask for a quote and then ignore it? You put it in your
terms, and even explain how to ask for it on the checkout page, and then ignore
it. I understand being busy, but to ignore 2 requests for a quote is not going
to make someone a customer. But if you are too busy then you don't need
any more customers.

Please be aware that BrickLink sellers get no onsite notifications of Quotes
received. If they miss the email notification (or Google shoves it in a folder
somewhere) it is very, very easy to miss a quote.

Yes, but the "My BL" page does tell you that you have quote requests
waiting.

It appears you have accidentally posted a message in the forum that was meant
to be a direct message to a particular seller.

Maybe. But then again, you hopefully don't use a "soapbox" in one-on-one
private conversations, right? The metaphor makes more sense in the context of
the quorum, or forum.

Presumably, this is a VENT and a /VENT. Sellers do get busy, but some buyers
(not you) go out of their way to waste a seller's time. They they (canonical
random buyer they) get all annoyed when it blows up in their face. Film at 11.

VENT/RANT. POTATO/FRITATTA. I am also very annoyed with the auction site with
sellers ignoring BEST OFFERS lately, and it's freaking hot right now.
I need a nap.
