Maybe it's time for one of my sabbaticals from the hobby 

No more sabbaticals for you! Just design and build that new fish room and keep going!

Sometimes I just need a breather  . But with the weather warming up I have been out hiking this year already. Hiking and backpack camping along with fishing is my way to relieve stress.

The bad part is that the aquarium fish hobby is supposed to be RELAXING, LOL
It's not supposed to stress me out

I've run into some of them as well. I don't know what else to do but keep my own list of people I will not even respond to if they reply to one of my ads. It may seem rude on my part but like many of you, I'm tired of some folks not following through.

I also have a private list and I'm sure some of the people on it realize they need not ask for anything from me.

I believe Jeff fwd you a post from another forum, where the OP knew not to ask you.

If you have been a buyer or a seller you know you have changed your mind for one reason or another....I had a 90 gallon for sale and received many PM's and no one called when I gave them my number....How many times I see some thing on sale go to buy it and my car needs the money ...my wife needs the money...my kids... or maybe I bought too much food.... This is one of the pleasures we are able to enjoy with extra cash....some times there are other priorities . To judge some one who wants to buy  from us and can not, because some thing more important came up is a bad thing... I have tried to be up front with all buyers and sellers and let them know what is happening ...and I hope all are up front with me...any thing I post on this site...Is to make others enjoy this Hobby like I have for over 40 years...If I get up set for not selling something I should get out of the hobby....The stuff I sell is to get it out to some one cheap and not just for profit....All the time and money we put out is never coming back...This is spending money on our selves... For our HOBBY...Getting others to enjoy also...
OK thats' my two cents.....

You have some good points.

Im pretty sure he is talking more about the people who reply to a sale thread saying they want it,  they never show/ call/PM,  then the same person will start a want to buy thread for the same item/items.
