What happens if someone PM’s the seller and makes a deal before anybody else answers on the thread?
Had a member on here who i made a deal with and set a date, then before that date he found out it was worth more money then what we agreed on so he backed out and asked if I wanted it for significantly more money. And according to the admins you're not violating any rules so with that logic I guess you can just pick and choose whoever you want to sell to even after agreeing with another member.
Probably so but in my world an agreement is your word.
Breaking your word is an entirely different world than order of interest.
Personally, I’d keep my word and take the loss.

Yet another reason I no longer deal here . Even some of the sponsors get their own special rules after agreeing to a deal . A man's word No longer mean **** around here .
The mods do not, and should not, punish people for exercising poor customer service. In order to do that, all transactions would need to be conducted through the site so all aspects of the transaction was known. This would put a huge burden on the site and the mods. It would be an unnecessary burden as the site has a built in way for someone to express their displeasure regarding what they feel is poor customer service. Every user has a feedback score. It's there so you can get an idea what type of person you may be doing business with. The site simply facilitates the meeting of potential sellers with potential sellers and only steps in in extreme cases such as sellers who misrepresent what they are selling.
It's the same logic as a farmer's market in the town square. If you make a deal with a merchant and he then sells the item while you are going to the ATM to get money, it would be unreasonable to suggest the police to step in to intervene in a civil dispute. The appropriate action would be to leave feedback to warn others of the bad business practices.
Because he is a sponsor and rules don't apply. So the feedback point in moot.Ok so how come when I left a negative feedback on said user for poor customer service it was removed by I'm assuming a mod?

I moved what I felt were the relevant posts to a new thread so it would not be assumed a mod shut down the conversation.
I cannot speak on such a general question regarding an issue I know nothing about. I do not know the specifics of the dispute. I do not know what feedback was left. I don't know whose account the feedback was left on. I cannot give you an answer to your question. I will say that mods cannot delete feedback. That's above their level.
I will say that, based on the info you provided, I can't say you have a legitimate gripe. Again, I do not know the specifics but I will try to create a scenario that matches the pattern I believe you set. You put a gun up for sale in the marketplace and I respond to it. We set up a deal. After we set up the deal and before the exchange is done, you learn the gun is rare and worth a lot more than you had listed it for. Based on the new information, you would be right to adjust the price accordingly. Because we had set up a deal, you should offer me the first chance to buy it based on the new information.
Let's say that between the time you made the deal and the time the exchange was made, you found out the user had listed the gun for twice the fair market value. Would you still pay twice what you could have because you gave him your word? I believe most people here, if they are being honest with themselves, would understand if you backed out of the deal. And in that case, it would, in my opinion, be unreasonable for the seller to leave negative feedback for you.
Based on the information you provided, he didn't "pick and choose" who he wanted to sell to. He learned the value of the item, adjusted the price accordingly, and allowed you the first opportunity to buy it at the new price. If someone made a deal with you then sold it to someone who offered more than you, that would be picking and choosing who they want to sell to.
Cool, so what youre saying is I can go back and leave negative feedback on that user account and it shouldn't get removed (which it did) and two anybody, and I mean ANYBODY on this site can basically just alter a deal whenever they feel like. I really hope somebody pulls something like that on one of the admins on here because hey like you said. It isn't a "legitimate gripe."
