Do you say Thank You?

I think its a good thing to do,alot of times theres always some smart asses that want to be cute,but for the guys that provide real based experience yeah i think its appropriate.

Have I said Thank You for your advice (even though directed to someone else's posts), shared experience, and considered opinions. Not to mention the entertainment.

I think Dweller, Newbee, Blindjim, and Piet all make a viable point. The paradigm in communication and community is changing. Again.

BTW - I am getting ready to post a question, so I am sucking up early.

Someone who does not acknowlegde a person who answers an e-mail, however brief it may be, is being remiss. Open and shut. Call me old fashioned.

It's been said before, but I was reminded when it happened to me again this week: When a seller places an ad, how hard is it to briefly respond when someone emails indicating they'd like to buy, replying thanks but the item is sold/sale pending as of now, instead of simply quitting responding at all? I wondered for two days before this seller finally tagged their ad sale pending, the only way I knew why there was no reply to my offer. This is rude -- if a seller goes out to solicit response he ought to at least acknowledge it when people take the time to read his ad and email their interest, regardless of whether he agreed to sell to someone else. I always do it. Just common courtesy.

Whether I have already sold an item or it is sale pending, I always reply to any questions. What's frustrating sometimes, i.e, I've already sold the item, marked the ad as SOLD, even wrote in the ad headline and body of the ad that it is sold, sometimes repeating the words ****SOLD, SOLD, SOLD *** with stars and asterisks to shout to all viewers that it is sold, and I'll occasionally still get the e-mail with, "Is this still available?" Now that's frustrating! Can anyone relate to this?
