I hope no one is offended as I have sent out a lot of messages to members that have not replied to me or we have new matches also a couple that has cards for me and I do not have any for them (I'm buying). I hate to bug members if they are not trading/selling. So I'm sending messages instead of offers. I have no problem if you reply and state that you are not trading/selling or you do not do small trades. Just reply and I will mark you off my list.
I will have some time to get back to trading/selling for the next couple of weeks now. May be a little slower as my card room still has boxes of non-card stuff in it. Will have to move stuff around. Bathroom remodel and cleaning up other rooms is on hold until materials get here to finish.
I still have a lot of cards that need a new home. Trade / sell / PIF / Secret Santa. One card or 150,000 cards just wish some of you lived closer. We both would be happy.

I would not be offended by this at all. (unless the wording was inflammatory, which I seriously doubt having dealt with you previously) What does offend me is when you extend an offer and there is no reply whatsoever, or having the offer declined with no message. It only takes a minute to say no thank you or you're crazy or something. This site is great for collectors of all levels and all should be treated with respect. Ignoring a fellow member is not respectful.

100% agree!!! Especially when the member logs in everyday and has active trades going on for the 2+ weeks your trade proposal or message has been sitting in their inbox. Courtesy goes a long way!!! Use it!!!

I wouldn't be offended at all. I did check and unfortunately I don't have anything on your Want List. I'll keep an eye out for ya though.

I would be offended if you sent me a message and didn't include "I want all of your '87 Topps doubles" somewhere. Don't hurt my feelings, man...

I do not get offended if someone does not reply but it is very frustrating. As I have very few matches for cards that I need due to what I collect. Which I understand. When I see one, I jump on it and if I do not get a reply I just wonder. WHY!!!!
That is why I send messages instead of offers. There are a few that I have messaged more several times.

I agree that ignoring an offer is just plain rude. It only takes a minute to add a quick message and decline if you are not interested. On several occasions I've even sent a message and still been ignored even though they log in regularly.
