Calling......at.....7am......over...and....over...
My morning starts when the new dog puts her paws up on my bed and starts rubbing her face all over my head. This begins around 6am....sometimes a little later, but around 6am every morning without fail.
I usually let her outside and go back to bed for a bit. When I have a LOT of work to do I go ahead and get up, but its not pleasant because Larry works second shift and we stay up until around 1am each night (its the only time our house is our "home" and not where I'm working.)
I'm up......changed out of my PJs.....made coffee....sat at my desk, turned the computer on and the TV.....listening to the talking heads.....when the phone starts ringing. He has called three times so far.
The email I send out to all the winning bidders states that we arrive at work at 9am.....which is when Shelby will be here.
WHY WHY WHY when calling so early didn't work......would a person not check to see what time it is where they are calling.
I'm going to drink this ENTIRE cup of coffee before I talk to anyone.

Its a rare problem. We do have a machine, but I keep forgetting to set it up. When we were at the store the machine was set to tell the hours of the store, but didn't take a message. That was perfect! 0 -
I understand your frustration. It is possible that the caller only has that time to make personal calls, or some other schedule problem that makes him unable to call when you're normally open. A hardship on both ends, for sure. 0 -
America has quite a few time zones. You're under no obligation to answer the phone. Turn the ringer off if you wish until 9 am.
I'm happy for you that business is good.0 -
Betcha they were so happy they won the auction they couldn't wait to pay for it and get it shipped!

I think you should be open 24/7. That would be exemplary customer service. You would be sure to be GunBroker?s number one seller next year. [:)][}:)][:o)]. Oh and offer free shipping and returns up to one year from purchase. 0 -

I should do all of this....no questions asked.....if I were a decent seller.
What is hilarious is the guy hasn't called once now that 9am is here. No email from him either that I can tell???0 -

Maybe that's why he tried to get hold of you before 9:00, maybe he can't call during business hours. if you works constructions and works any overtime, there's a real good chance that he's at work and cannot call you during your business hours.
But then again maybe not. But I wouldn't jump to conclusions if I were you until you find out the facts..
I know I have worked construction on my life, and it's not uncommon to work 12 a hours day, four or five days a week.
Had you turned on your answering machine, maybe he would have left you a message...
Just my opinion0 -
As others said; sometimes they can only call at certain times..... 0 -

Kasey sells guns, she's not in construction. I don't think she's jumping to conclusions. Have you used a bulldozer and a wrecking ball while working on your life? Answering machine? Seriously? How 1980's of you. [;)][:D][:o)][:p]
You make absolutely no sense as usual, of course I guess that's the green font. But I'm pretty sure you're serious even though you used green font.
As far as an answering machine goes, here is a C&P of Kasey's 2nd post to this thread
"Its a rare problem. We do have a machine, but I keep forgetting to set it up. when we were at the store the machine was set to tell the hours of the store, but didn't take a message. That was perfect!"
But I guess you would have caught that too if you hadn't been just trolling to make a fool out of yourself responding to me.
And to answer your other question, no I have not used a bulldozer and a Wrecking ball while working on my life, but it's apparent you have.
All I'm doing is trying to find out a possible reason why the buyer was calling outside of her work hours...
But true to your form, you have to jump in and start trolling[V][xx(]0
