  • Next time ask ask how big it is.

    I have an old hamster cage that I no longer need since the hamster died 2-3 years ago and with two dogs, don't really want another hamster so I put it up for sale. I got one person interested in it and made plans to meet him at the store with a red dog and blue cat. When we met up He decided it wasn't big enough and didn't want it. So why when you were making these plans with me didn't you ask how big it was? I could've pulled up the specs easily.

    Sorry for whining but it confuses me why He didn't just ask how big it was then.

    Sorry, just that your thread title is, um.... rather thought provoking?

    Yes, it's annoying when people don't ask basic questions that make a difference.

      How enormous is his hamster? They don't tend to come in varying sizes like fish....

          I think it was that the cage wasn't as big as he was thinking. I'm a crap photographer so I don't know if the cage looked bigger in the pictures than it really was or what.

                  Can't really say much about that since one guy on Bad Ink had a monkey tattooed around his belly button so he could ask girls "Wanna come home and spank my monkey?"

                        Next time, put a reference item in the image. A ruler or measuring tape butted up against the long edge is good.

                        Also, put size in the ad.



                        Also, darkroxas? Looks like you're going to need these tissues.
