Why advertise a pony and not call people back!!!

l wanted to look at this pony tomorrow, havent been able to organise day.

l have cash and a lorry to pick pony up. What is the matter with people, why advertise and not call people back !!!!

Whilst I agree its bad manners not to phone back if they say they will, perhaps they have a valid reason for not calling back. Perhaps they have misplaced your number.
Possibly a call tomorrow with a
"Hi its X, I was expecting a call from you yesterday, but as I hadn't heard from you I thought you may have lost/misplaced my number, so thought I would give you a quick call"
 
Because they do still have lives and other priorities lol, as well as first callers and enquirers etc too

I had mine up advertised, and had put evening's only, no time after 8.30 etc and during the day I'd get phone calls but I'm busy working most day time hours so can't answer and when I do stop working,don't want to spend ages talking about horses still after working with them all day too lol! I'd generally wait till I had my day off and then would sort through all enquiries I had, sending texts or emails to ones I thought would be not suited and then would ring the rest possibilities up - say about the pony, ask them questions, let them ask me anything and then sort out viewing if they were still interested and go from there

That said, I wasn't in a aprticular rush to get rid of mine quickly though, so maybe was a bit complacent about it....but anyway lol.
 
Have phoned and texted today, this ad was placed as a desperate to sell!!!

l understand people have other stuff to do but l sent text that l would like to look at pony tomorrow and she said ok but was working some of the day.the text l received was she would call me today, l waited till 3 no call and no call since.

Not going to keep calling it embarassing and you either want to sell or you dont.
 
Gawdd that is annoying, I bet if you had text that you had the cash and could collect tomorrow they would have got straight back to you!

Have you got a link to the add? Just so I can be nosey

(don't worry I'm not looking to buy!)
 
It works both ways. I've had a pony for sale for ages and i've had so many tome wasters, people calling up and saying yes will definatly want him and then they don't contact again. I one instance even had a pervert call and was asking if he was a stallion etc....PM if your interested in mine?
 
agree with mcsedge i hava pony up for sale *advertised cheap for a quick sale* had lots of calls all wanting to come this weekend and not one has phoned back or turned up... if you had text me i would of called back if i still had your number but knowing me i would have lost it

I agree, so annoying, I recently saw an ad, tried to contact for days, mobile number, no answer and no answerphone, email, no reply so sent text still no reply. After about five days I eventually got hold of the owner, confirmed mare was still for sale, arranged for me to visit the following weekend. Then discovered the weather forecast for the weekend was terrible so tried to contact via all channels again to find out if they had an indoor school to ride, no answer, texted and emailed, still no reply. I wasn't going to drive two and a half hours on the motorway in storms to find no where to ride and probably the owner wouldn't turn up in that weather!
