Cant see myself reading through that lot in a hurry......

Showing me how to search Kona is so stupid its just not even funny, I know how to conduct a single word search: Its about how to find detail among these posts on what you want involving a complex subject matter.

I have never at any point suggested I was confused about which PM came first or second.

You're not even close here with your lame breakdown, you have not touched on a single relevant point.

Mr Brown PM#1 @22:28:
Hi, I'll take the bike if you can wait until Friday as it's pay day and right now I simply don't have the money? Does it need to be posted or are you in London? Please let me know.

roryeaglestone PM#1 @22:35:
Will you post the kona to manc? If you so i'll paypal you tonight!
(Obviously I'll pay postage)
Cheers

I have two buyers who have both PM'd me with in a couple of minute of each other, roryeaglestone and Mr Brown.
Should I sell the frame to the first bidder or let them send me a private bid, highest wins.
Whats fair?
I will make forum donation when sale goes through.
Thank No1

Hi Mr Brown,
I have two buyers, please see the thread for my response.
I have asked the forum If I should seller to the first bidder or let you both send a private bid, highest wins.
Genuinely don't know correct etiquette is for this.
Friday is not a problem if your good for your word.
Frame is in SE1.
Thanks No1
(Reply almost same to both buyers - I have two buyers, please see the thread for my response. - where I have mentioned both your names so all three of us and everyone else knows exactly what was done openly and fairly.)

Mr Brown PM:
Hmmm well most I can do is £100 i'm not after a bidding war. I can pick up and pay on friday in person tho. Let me know.

Thanks roryeaglestone,
I have offered the frame to the first bidder Mr Brown.

Mr Brown PM:
I think you should refrain from quoting and commenting on private message conversations and deals in a public forum. After seeing the thread I was about to withdraw my interested. Then I wake up again and see you've said that you've accepted my offer. Now it's on a public forum you could say I'm obliged to pay? I'd rather not. Not trying to be awkward could you please contact Rory and see if he would like the frame still.

.................What is important is the order in which this all happened.

After the above^ people commented don't ask people to bid, the forum won't like it.

And I Responded..........
Thanks to everyone for all your feedback. I could not find anything concrete about what to do when, as in this case to buyers where both offering on the frame within minutes of each other....
I will not pretend that I was not seeing if one buyer was willing to pay more than the other, when that it is obvious :-)
....But I did make my position clear and asked for informed feed back about what was consider fair by the forum.
I do have plenty stuff to sell and would like all buyers to be very pleased with there dealings with me....
I appear to have unfortunately upset Mr Brown the first bidder with my conduct during this auction.
......roryeaglestone PM sent

And then...........
As you said nothing concrete in writing. I did read the guidelines before I started selling but now I have been told it won't happen again.

I repeat:
"now I have been told it won't happen again"
......Why are you now trying to make it something more sinister than what it is?
And why is no one slamming Mr Brown who made an undercover bid ebay style?
Oh yeah, that's it, he's your mate!

........ And I tell you some really funny, Here is my name being sullied all over a "Bad Traders" thread and at the point all this was written I had never sold anything to anyone on this forum!!!!! ...Lame
