there is nothing wrong with replying to a for sale thread with "PM sent". I just dont think that should stop anyone else sending me a PM with their interest.
The first to post could have pm'd me with an offer, not an intention to pay the full asking price.....

we've seen bun fights before where someone was selling an iphone and poster A pm'd the seller with a lower offer, poster B pm'd with an offer of the full price, seller sold to poster B and poster A got mad cos he missed out

The most recent issue was IMHO caused by the seller taking payment from too many people when he should have replied to at least one person "all sold pending payment"

There is nothing wrong with the way its done now, you snooze, you lose. You try and haggle, you take the risk that someone else pays full price and it gets sold from beneath your feet
