    Ever left bad feedback

    Just curious if you have or if it even matters to someone (being the buyer or selling to someone with bad feedback). Had an agreement for the asking price to buy a gun 5 days ago. I showed up at the time agreed upon and waited for half an hour and tried to make contact. Didn't get any so I give the benefit of a doubt that something came up. Been 5 days and not a word and he's had activity on calguns so it's not like they aren't aware of me trying to make contact. First bad experience with meeting someone on here but I think it's bull**** to not just say hey I changed my mind or sold it for more maybe before you waste my time.

    Just curious to thoughts or similar experiences.

    Definitely cause for negative feedback.
    It was just an old plywood boat, with a '75 Johnson, with electric choke. A young boy, two hands on the wheel, I can't replace the way it made me feel.

      Leave a neutral. If he leaves retaliatory feedback report it using the button.
      If it was a snake, it would have bit me.
      Use the goog to search calguns

          Never have had to, although I've passed on deals with shady sellers before. Neutral feedback would be best, let it be known he's a verified flake.

            You can discuss it with a Moderator if you feel it's a big violation. Otherwise below explains about negative feedback and how it should be used with the marketplace.

            17) iTrader ratings.
            Negative feedback should be reserved for transactions where one party has lost either money or goods, or the delivered product is substantially different than advertised. Positive feedback is appropriate for a transaction with good communications between they parties involved and that completes in a timely manner. Neutral feedback is for everything else, including transactions which are not completed. Use the comment section to describe why you gave the rating you did. Retaliatory feedback is not tolerated and should be reported to a moderator. See Rule #16 regarding Marketplace Disputes.

                          I had a bad experience with another member a few months ago. Maybe I should say he had a bad experience with me. I didn't flake on him but I did change my mind. It was right after the San Berdoo shooting.

                          I didn't sell\trade the gun but he would have had every right to leave a bad feedback for me.
                          It takes a lot of balls to play golf the way I do.

                            I've been lucky. Every transaction I have ever done with a CalGunner has been super smooth. Sorry you had a bad experience OP.

                              I had to one time and he o course left me negative in retaliation.
                              He wanted a specific amount and caliber of brass that I don't normally get so I got some just for him and at the last min after I had it all boxed up and ready to ship he backed out with no excuse.
