I can handle two days if it's an eBay purchase because it's an individual with a day job, not their business. But when it's a business it doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me.

Ebay.
Selling some used alloy car wheels with tyres.
Three different peeps have clicked 'buy' in three months, only to message me "err sorry changed mind" or some such BS. ::) muppets!

@organisys eBay is on my shit list forever more.
Sold iPhone to buyer. 3 months later buyer claims purchase was not authorised by them on their card. Buyer gets refunded immediately.
No iPhone, no money
To make it even more amusing the sale was conducted entirely through Sams eBay account

i'll never sell on ebay even if i'm in a dire situation.. should've just gone gumtree or iphone marketplace which i found to be pretty decent.

Sat in the sofa talking to Hot Ingrid and I ask what she’s doing on her phone. “Research for Black Friday”, she says. There’s me thinking Black Friday was yesterday and thank fuck I was done with it. But nooooo, turns out we now have Black Week, (bit racist, but besides the point). So I’ve fielded about 20 spam emails, suffered countless ad’s on assorted platforms, and the cunting day is still a week off?! Fuck. That. Shit.
As of now I will treat any brand, channel, outlet, shoving Black Fucking Friday in my face, the same way I treat cold callers. That is to say I will less than politely invite them to lick my chocolate starfish, or face the consequences of being gently shagged sideways with a cricket bat, (for everyone not originating from the UK, or former colony of the UK, this is equivalent to be lightly frigged by a baseball bat, only much less comfortable). Modern life is rubbish.

Wait, so you tell me black Friday is still coming up? I've already deleted dozens of mails on that topic…

Its the same as Christmas sales, firework night, Halloween…..all stretched out for weeks before and after

It takes about half a minute. I used to set-up an auto answering saying I was "away exploring Mars"… I reckon most of 'm gave up after that...
The less time and energy I have to waste, the better. I also find the idea that my not answering them and thus frustrating them endearing.
(I also love looking up people on Facebook and blocking them pre-emptively…)

I use this ethical search engine. I get f all black Friday promo emails, or any other algorithm based shite, and they invest ethically, and pay their taxes…
The only sales promo emails I get are Iron Heart, Rivet and Hide, Hennie Haynes, and Jura Watches. Because I subscribe. Other than that, the Internet can suck it. I don't have one single social media account. I don't even know what FOMO is!
