People not getting my email responses?

[monkbonk]

I'm not sure if people are getting my email responses when I respond to their inquiry about my classified ads.

I have had about three to four people email me about an item, asking for my paypal address, only to fall off the face of the earth when I send them a response.

I don't think they are necessarily all flaking on the price of the item, as I'm only asking exactly what's listed in the ad (in this case, $7). They must just not be getting my responses.

I had one fellow contact me onsite through private messages because he wasn't getting any response from me. I ended up being able to sell the item to him, so that was good.

The email I have listed for the site is a yahoo email address.

On the flip side, I have been able to email others and purchase their items.

From what you stated, you are getting the inquiry from the site, then you are responding to them with a total, your Paypal address, and so on.

When you are responding to them through your Yahoo (or any) email, this has nothing to do with the site.
It is only using your email directly.

It is possible that some of the text in the message from the site is setting off their scam/spam program or filters and it is going to their Spam folder in their email.
I have had this happen from time to time when people email me on parts and just general emails but it is not happening on every parts email.

Some of them may be flaking out, although probably not everyone.

I can't really explain it but hopefully some of the above is helpful.
