After consulting with NP management, I got permission to post this. The reason for posting is to give this NP member a last chance to do the right thing. I'll try to keep it short and to the point so I left out any unnecessary messages.

Almost 3 months ago (13 May) I sold Taiwan.tv for $6,000 to NP member Jandy, he came to me through another NP member, who posted Taiwan.tv for me on a Taiwanese forum.

Jandy asked me if he could have a few days before paying me and I agreed.
His message on 21 May:
------
sorry for the late reply....
can you give me some days?
because I just bought a ring for my girlfriend for $3000
so I don't have enough cash now....
I need time to sell my domains or get the cash from my work....
------


After two reminders, on 18 June Jandy asked for an additional one month:
------
sorry....just one month...
I still don't have enough cash...
------

As he looked to me as a reputable member and I didn't need the money urgently, I agreed.


After one month, I asked him to start the escrow:
------
Hi Jandy,

After we reached a deal on Taiwan.tv over 2 months ago (13 May) and the
additional month for which you requested is now passed as well, it's time
to finish this deal as this is already taking a long time.

Can you start the escrow, my escrow email address is:
******

Thanks, John.

Jandy replied on 20 July:
------
sorry for late reply....
because I am busy on my wedding....I don't have much time on internet....
an in fact...I still don't have enough cash.....
now I still don't have $6000....and some of them also need spending on wedding...so….still can give me more time?thanks
------


After which I asked for a commitment on a specific date on which he would start the escrow:
------
Hi Jandy,

Just to keep it clear now for both of us, can you let me know the exact
date when you will start the escrow?

Regards, John.
------


After that he kept quiet for over 2 weeks.

What worried me is that I noticed he is buying domains here at Namepros:
http://www.namepros.com/domain-names-wanted/496818-general-pro-domains-wanted.html

and through his signature as well:
NNN.net/LLL.net/NNN.biz/LLL.biz Wanted
please PM...thanks


So I sent him this message on 1 August:
------
Hi Jandy,

Just noticed that you are buying domains now:

http://www.namepros.com/domain-names-wanted/496818-general-pro-domains-wanted.html

so you should be able to finish our Taiwan.tv deal.

John.

and I posted on his sales thread on 3 August.


I also sent him this message:
------
Hi Jandy,

We are now almost 3 months further after we reached an agreement and you
have ignored my emails and PM's for over 2 weeks now.

I still hope you will do the right thing and honor our deal by starting
the escrow for Taiwan.tv or at least communicate with me with a day you
will start the escrow or a payment plan which is fair and acceptable.

If you are still ignoring my emails and PM's, I feel sorry that I'm left
with no choice then to report you in the 'Warnings and Alerts' section.

Best regards, John.

He replied almost immediately with:
------
sorry...but I have not used the net for about 1-2 week....not everyone will use net everyday.... even I still not sleep yesterday because my work....

and I am hurry to get the cash.....
now I don't feel good to get so much these kind of mail....
first...I will apologize for the offer that I maed...then I will hold my offer now...
------

He also send this message on the same day:
------
yes...I posted on NP....but when?I think the date is 07/25/2008
from the post...I reply to anyone?or have got any domains?
now I still have many pm in my account.....besides sell the domain...I also have the job to get cash....

from the deal....how often do you send the mail?
I have told you the reason....and I have say sorry to the late...
if you don't want to wait....you can sell to others...I am tired of it.....
you don't need to threaten........
------


My reply:
------
Hi Jandy,

The last time you were online at Namepros was Sunday 3 August.

I think I already showed I don't mind to wait as I have already waited for
3 months ;)

but the only thing for you to do now is to give me a day when you will be
able to finalise our deal, that's all!

When can you have the cash to finalise this deal?
------


And he replied back on the same day:
------
when I am oniline-->mean what???
do you know weather I have time?

you say that you have showed you don't mind to wait.....
maybe...but for me...just feel that I always get the hurry mail
------


My last message to him:
------
Hi Jandy,

Please don't avoid my question and let me know the day we can finally
finalize our deal.

After 3 months of waiting it's not that much to ask.
------


Jandy, you can still do the right thing and finalize our deal.

Dump Him

After reading your post I think you should dump him and sell it to someone else. This is why I am afraid to spend more than $300 on the internet because I don't know who I can trust. This is the other side of what a buyer might feel.

However whenever I agree to buy something I buy it and when I agree to pay someone I pay them.

Does Jandy know about this thread?

early on a simple note saying he couldn't go through with the deal would of been (bad) but so much better than playing you on.

Bad Business.

Reputation is everything in this industry.
