... Two days later I am pissed so I see she post an ad in Dallas and I PM her ask her whats the deal. She said she had went to El Paso for a few days and didn't get my messages. I asked her if she did not want to see me and she said yes of course she did, so I set another appointment with her. Guess what, no show again. I hear back the next day and she said she was in a horrible wreck and in the hospital and that she really wanted to see me when she got better. 10 minutes later she post another ad. I learned my lesson after that.

Of course, some keep missing MY POINT. We call this a hobby, but it's a business (pure and simple), and my point if I may illustrate it another way. If you thumb thru the Yellow Pages and find a builder that seems to have good reviews, and you ask him to build your home, and after several inquiries, he says, "Sure, I'll see you Tues", but then he's sick on Tues, but you see him giving an interview on TV (healthy as a horse). Then he says I'll see you on Monday, but then he's moving offices that day, but you again see him on TV giving an interview about his GREAT service.
Well, I think it would be right about that time, then you'll realize that something just isn't right. So you 'MAY' chose to inquire with others and see if you're getting the same run-around, because true it could be that the builder is just unorganized, but still provide a good quality home, or he's just the type of person that don't give a damn about your business.
But that whole scene could be avoided, if the Builder had simply said, no, I'm not accepting any new clients to build homes. Ok, got it... Thanks, see you later... That's my whole point, but of course, again some will get it and some won't, so I'm fine...
Moved on...
