    Haven't used Freecycle for ages but put up a couple of offers, one reply came in immediately saying "can you deliver to (town 20 miles away), I'm very busy playing the xbox360. I don't have time to collect but I'd really like this :eek:

    He did at least say thanks very much in advance :D

    I think I'd be inclined to report this to the mods - cheeky ******
    Hate and I do mean Hate my apple Mac Computer - wish I'd never bought the thing
    Do little and often
    Please stop using the word "of" when you actually mean "have" - it's damned annoying :mad:

    It annoys me when I reply to a 'wanted' post, offering them the item they need, and they either dont bother to reply, or they collect the item and dont bother to say 'thanks' or post a 'received'..

    What is the point of a "received" post? Just clutters up the inbox, but maybe there's something I haven't thought of, there.

    Got stood up the other night. Said her bf was "busy watching the football" and then just never bothered to reschedule.

    recieved posts mean the moderators can pair up the wanted post with a recieved so they can delete it off the main board, otherwse they would need huge storage for all the posts (so we are told on our board anyways.)

    don't think the normal yahoogroups works like that... are you on a non-yahoo based group?
