How do you retaliate with a buyer who wasted your time and ended up not buying it?

Pretty pissed off as I wanted to sell these pairs of shoes and this guy was first to pm me out of everyone so the other 2 guys I said it was pending to weren't interested anymore.

So I told this fukhead to give me his PayPal email so I can send him an invoice and he gave it to me so I did. The next morning I ask him if he still wants it? and he said yes he will pay now. About 5 hours later, he asks if the shoes are true to size. So I answer this fukhead back and told him they were and he said he just paid for them. I told him who did he pay? My invoice to him was still pending. He told me he will check again.


After that this fukker stopped responding and I want to retaliate with this guy for wasting my time and losing out on an opportunity to sell some sneakers. I have his email info which is all I have. How should I retaliate with this troll?

I wouldn't bother, just learn from it instead. Online is full of time wasters you shouldn't wait on. Nothing is done until the money is transferred, give the product to whoever transfers the money first, and don't hold the product to people who only said they would buy.

Obviously it depends on the industry and product, but my rule is "Always leave your clients with Candy". My product has a lot of scarcity so there's a very good chance they'll be back. But if you live in NYC and probably will never speak to them again you might as well burn the bridge.

Welcome to the world of dealing with people/strangers. Most people are pure time wasters, window shoppers and dreamers.. Yes, people dream over a pair of shoes or something as mundane as a $20 charger cable.

People suck.

Dont retaliate, just move onto another buyer. 95% of potential customers will waste your time. The people who are serious about buying chit usually get straight to the point and dont phuk around, chit happens brah

This, he or she may tell a friend to buy the shoes for them, you really never know. So just hold your tongue and be patient. People being annoying comes with the territory of sales, that's just how it goes. Be a business man about it and let it slide.

nothing (srs.) Your job is to screen the time wasters, not do something after they've already wasted your time. Just take the L and learn from this, if they're aren't up to buying it immediately tell them to phuck off.

Instantly forget the whole thing. It's the best revenge to just make you matter most.

Anything else just wastesmore of your time.

The kind of people who ask a ton of questions never seem to buy anything.

Much like online dating TBH; don't trust women who flake
I literally just told the fukc I was on the next plane and was going to buy, hence paying for a plane ticket.

I still want to punch that ****er in the face.

Work your way into a situation where you are able to date his mom causing his parents to get divorced. Then once you've worked your way into the family as the trusted stepdad give him bad life advice. That will teach him.
