Is my inbox working?

[apanda0622]

I have messaged three members on here wanting to purchase ponies and none of them have messaged me back despite them being online and one bumping their thread. Is my inbox working? I haven't been on the Arena in awhile but I have good feedback. I'm very disappointed if no one wants to sell to me.

Want me to send you a test PM? I'll give it a shot for ya.

Thanks it works.  So I guess its just me.  =/  I mean I have one neutral feedback but that's because I left a negative for a member who took two weeks to ship an item and she thought I was being unreasonable she left me a neutral.

Sometimes people may be checking their PMs on their phone or may have left the Arena open while not actually being at the computer, making it look like they are online. I've done that before.
Give them a couple days then maybe try again.

You can also check your sent messages to see if the members have opened your PM yet (if they haven't read the message yet, the little envelope icon will still be closed). I am logged in all the time, but not actually on the forum 24-7, so I'm sure others do that as well?

  Panda.

I would do what Teddy suggested and check if they have been read. Otherwise I am not sure what else to do. If they don't want your business then I suppose that is their prerogative. I would hope it had nothing to do with that neutral.  I do remember your incident back in April and in my opinion you did nothing wrong except wonder why your item had not been shipped, weeks later?

*more hugs*    I hope that its just people being busy. I wouldnt be put off by the neutral one bit! There's no harm in sending them another message just incase... but if you still get no reply then take no notice - dont feel hurt - someone else will always be willing to sell to you

It's possible those sellers are waiting to hear back from another buyer on those ponies already and those ponies are already spoken for and don't want to deal with other people and instead of saying so are just ignoring people (it's happened before, whether it's the buyer or seller). I think the most important thing is communication and if you hear nothing back, just consider the pony sold and move on.
