I agree, communication is so very important and it just peev's me that some do not reply to your PM's or let you know when or if something arrived.

That said I think I have done that exact thing before and have also asked for pics of a bow and never sent a thank you...Sorry to those I have done that too.

2 things, OMG Cheetah are a beautiful bow... and I have had my eye on a Thunderstick for a few weeks now.  I thought about the MOAB but 62" seems a little short for my 30" draw, but since it is a r/d I really don't know if the same rule applies (probably more of a guideline then a rule anyway).

But when I make a deal and someone says its done, I send my stuff and close my PM. Sometimes I just can't find them again to say Hey, it got here! But yeah, tell me quickly that you like/don't like or will consider my offer. A quick No Thanks is better than nothing.

Take out the trash, she says.. don't shoot indoors, she says.. use a plate, she says.. remember to wipe, she says.. then again, kids need, and seek, corrections ^^

Here's mine, I give away tons of stuff. A number of people I send stuff to never acknowledge receiving the item or thank me for sending it.

I can't imagine anyone forgetting to thank Eric - OMG, his "stuff" is like fresh panned gold - or the last item (always the highest dollar one) on each Atiques Road Show (TV episodes)     :thumbsup:  

That's like not thanking John Strunk, or Gorden Ferlitsch or .... or.... or....  CHER!  

Sorry, I had to slip that last one in - a personal fantasy  :D   (Serious about the rest of the post though.)

You guys think you have it bad, today someone threw a zip lock bag FULL of human feces, a diaper, a dead hanging style potted plant an empty Marborro box on my front yard. This is a small town and I think I know who did the deed, the cops came and got it as evidence.  The big question was, would I take my left hand Robertson r/d or my right hand Robertson r/d longbow that I shoot Hill style, (notice the nose in the air), to get revenge.  Of course the answer is neither. What's a PM? I don't think anyone has ever thrown one of those in my yard.

I may be guilty a time or two of not getting someone an answer as quickly as I would like but my excuse is I thought about it so much I actually thought I had done it already. Sorry Wingnut!!!!

I too have had to send this pm or e-mail too many times....

[Checking in with you!
I haven't heard back from you so I don't know what your thinking/planning.

Please let me know something!]

One more...My wife says she's not going to try to learn how to shoot a bow. Dang it!

When you ask for pics, at least get back to the sender and let them know they were received and whether your still interested or not!
If it isn't life or death, it's no big deal.

to describe a bow as being "quite" doesn't do it. The spelling is "quiet"

Absolutely-
When you receive something, give FEEDBACK.
At least let them know that it has gotten there and what shape it got there in.
Put yourself in the other guys shoes.
