Online Ettiquette

Okay, I have to be honest, I don't scour Kijiji often for anything, either because I just don't think about it, or don't need anything, or in reality can't fit anything else in the house, it's pretty packed full of stuff...because boy oh boy do I love furniture...I'm serious, I LOVE IT...but often I choose things that just simply won't fit well...oh well, that's the price for comfort right...I do however, know alot of people that have had fabulous luck finding great things on kijiji...a friend of mine found a gorgeous dining room table set and simply recovered the chair fabric and it looks amazing and another friend found fabulous red leather furniture...super cool retro stuff...but husband is on Kijiji steady, I feel it's an addiction, but he'd argue otherwise, ANYWAY...he can get frustrated by NOT Kijiji, but people who post on Kijiji, and by default I get his frustration and feel his frustration...for instance....why do people post something for sale, but don't respond ...EVER? what's the point of trying to make the sale? Why do people offer less, and by that I mean so much less that it's an insult? and when Husband was unable to go see a vehicle that he had made plans with the seller to see, and husband emailed IN PLENTY OF TIME TO let seller know that he was unable to meet up(I should add that this seller wasn't travelling anywhere, we were doing all the driving) the seller sent back a total tirade of expletives and rude, crude and socially unacceptable reply ...I couldn't even believe it.....Kijiji is such a great resource and it can be such a drag when people ruin the experience of it...But all this still makes me feel like taking a little perusal of Kijiji to see what furniture I can sneak into the house...Enjoy your long weekend....
