How long do you hang on to something.

Sort of a strange question. I sold something two months ago for local pick up as it is big and very heavy. The buyer paid immediately and I sent a message so we could arrange a meeting place and time. Now, at two months later, I have not heard from them.

 

At first, I sent a message to the buyer twice a week, but still no response. After a month, I just send a message once a week in an attempt to connect and arrange the pick up, still no response.

 

My question is, how long should I wait before giving up on the buyer and relisting this. I would hate to do that if the buyer was sick or had been in a serious accident and is not able to fulfill a pick up. Maybe they realize that this is local pick up and they live in another state, but why not ask for a refund.

 

This is not an expensive item, only $60, but I want to do the right thing, hence forth this request for advice.

 

Thank you!

After a couple weeks, I would have canceled the order and refunded.

Have a great day.

60 days and then re-list.

 

If the buyer doesn't care, I don't care either.
