NTA. People are probably just mad, since it is easier to pick something up after work, than having to go early. But still, any day of the week, and they cant find a time that works? Your health comes first, but maybe disclose it in you marketplace post so you dont have any more rude encounters


GollumTrees

Thank you, and yes, any day of the week and I try to make the meeting location close to them or otherwise convenient. I'm pretty laid back outside of the time frame thing lol.


TransitionLow7164

Wow then you are already much more accommodating than many posters I know! Keep it up

NTA by no means You have openings for meetings, but it doesn't match other people's schedules, you don't have to bend to their will Maybe if it's a special case? Someone driving from another state or something like that, but from what you mention, seems like some boomers are just entitled

I've been cornered and ripped off by people in person more than once. People being loud and threatening or demanding to pay less for the item, or coming to my storage barn and trying to walk off with things. I've also encountered scams and as a lone woman public meets are more ideal, especially in an area full of wild tourists. I never said my preference was the correct way to do things lol I'm just cranky and exhausted by, say, 4 pm. Taking care of an entire farm by myself can require a bit of focus, yeah, but not looking for comments on my personal situation just my work.

I mean, obviously not. If you're ok not getting business after 2pm, no issue here.

NTA - They want you to operate on your schedule but you cannot do to your schedule. Tell them they will just have to change their schedule to match yours because you are not going to jeopardize your health for them. I have a similar situation and that's it. You want to do business with me, those are my terms. Look elsewhere if you prefer. I will do a lot for you, but dying for you is just going to happen. Toot-a-loo.

NTA- Those are your hours. The people who are complaining sound very self-centered. They don't HAVE to buy your wares. Everything seems to forget the full rule when it comes to customer service. "The customer is always right in matters of taste." All that means is that you should stock up on the goods that sell out quickly and not judge the customer who buys something outside of your personal taste.


zerostar83

NAH. You're running a business and have business hours. Other people can be as inconvenienced and that's fine too. If you want more customers and feel like the hours are preventing that, then you make the decision as it's your business. Otherwise it's just people being people. You can't please everyone.

NAH. Are people angry or are they just frustrated because they saw an ad for a thing they need/want to buy and now it turns out that they can't actually arrange to buy it?  Lots of people run on opposite schedules to yours, and some proportion of them are going to be just as inflexible as you are. 


GollumTrees

A lot of them tell me they can only meet after 5 or 6 PM. This is a common theme, I assume because of their jobs. I politely tell them I am available 7 am to 2 pm any day of the week and that is when they tend to get hostile. Then others are like, "oh, okay, that would work for this weekend then" and they usually meet on a Sat or Sun which works out great.
