Had a guy selling a Seeburg 201 jukebox. Arranged to look at it that weekend, he messages me back (FB messenger) 2 days later saying he sold it.
People are scumbags more than they aren’t l. I’ve been ghosted by more deals on FB Messenger than not. Seems to be the closer to the Northeast, the more likely you are to get f**ked. Last few times, it was sellers in NJ, NY, or CT. One the flip side, I picked up an adorable ceramic TV lamp in Kulpmont, and the lady was more than happy to sell it to me, because she was getting hammered by weirdos, and I was there with cash, on schedule. Ditto when I picked up my Wurlitzer 1650 in Pittsburgh. Showed up with cash, ready to load. Seller was very apologetic that she was intermittent when we were setting up the transaction, because her work life had exploded for a few weeks prior.
