Thats not the case with everyone. Thats why I think the open forum is a better timestamp.
I guess that works if you conduct the negotiating publicly in the thread too.

My issue is there are serial dibbers. They do driveby dibs. Then it is on you to PM them and try to engage them. They might totally ignore your PM even though they publicly claimed dibs. Meanwhile I've got someone else who came along 5 minutes later who sent me a PM and offers to take full price and pay pal me right now. F that. Dib guy has zero priority in those situations. You want to buy what I am selling start a conversation. Shouting "dibs" for all to see doesn't qualify.

And I see these jokers who are looking for something, maybe some 7x15 Fuchs or some Weber 40IDAs. They go through the classifieds and territorial piss their dibs on several threads. Now they are locking up 3 different buyers when the reality is they will only close with 1 of them. Get lost.
