This message is for you, so read on. And I'll apologize to the mods ahead of time for this rant, but I've had enough and it has nothing to do with wanting to personally buy a blade from BCS. Any infraction I may get will be worth it.

I think it's f*%#ing ridiculous that this is still a problem. Whoever is doing this is a complete jackass and should have his (or her) head examined. What is the point of loading up the cart anyway? Even if it's one blade, buy it or let it go. Let someone who really wants it have a shot. Now I know commiting the cash to a blade purchase can be a big decision. I've backed out of a few deals on the exchange and fortunately the seller's have always understood and supported that decision. By the same token, I've been on the receiving end of "mind-changing" and I've never gotten upset about it. It happens. Busses/Rats/Dogs are expensive. But for some moron to lock up items for no reason is truly aggravating, and like I said I don't even want this FBM.

Is there a way that Skunk can identify the hog-tier? If so that person(s) should be read the riot act and if found to be a hog-tier again banned from future BCS purchases. Apparently this is the only solution that would work.

Anyone out there think this numb-nut has the guts to come clean and admit he's/she's the one doing this. If they had a good reason for it, what would be the harm in owning up to it. The fact that this person(s) remains cloaked in secrecy speaks volumes of his/her integrity.

He moron

There I've said my peace and I'm off my

How do you even know that's what it means? It could simply be that there may possibly be more in inventory. It's better to see it hogtied than not there at all.

If it is someone just keeping them in a cart then I agree they are morons
 
I agree, either buy the darn thing or LET IT GO! I really REALLY want one last FFBM, as I am sure almost everyone else does. When they are hogtied....its impossible, if there gone, thats fine.

If its like what Raden says and its for a different reason then fine. But I really hope people arent playing games.
 
I think it may be a case of the inventory not being up yet. If that's the case, then they'll change back to available sooner or later. And even if that isn't the case, and it's someone hogtying them for no reason than to be a nuisance, then Skunk will come along and give that guy the boot like the last time! Personally, I'm taking a chill pill. I've gotten a little trigger happy over here. :D
 
I think this is one sick puppy, someone who gets off on doing things like this in secrecy. It's probably sitting in front of its computer sweating, laughing and playing spank the monkey. It has no friends, and cannot afford a Busse. It considers this as "proxy" ownership.
 
I still think the Skunk has a cart that does not expire.
Every so often he tosses one out for us to fight over...:cool::cool:

So, now that we know the meaning, let's come up with a way to eliminate this problem.

I only wish we COULD, Mike. It only takes one complete moron to cause all this trouble ... and we really have no way to identify that moron!

I'm a mild-mannered fellow, but this is just too much. :mad:

I agree OP. For the life of me I can't understand what the point of loading up the cart is. This person is clearly a

And to be totally honest, I think Skunk could come up with a better way of holding blades back, but not making it appear that they have been loaded up and not purchased. Maybe a restocking label or something that allows potential buyers to know that there will be more would be a better choice. Since he said that hogtied meant a full cart somewhere I take that at face value. I think a lot of us are sick of the possibility of someone locking up the item. But to allow us to rant about a condition that doesn't really exist is a bit annoying. Skunk can you please clarify? Thanks.
 
I'm afraid that I very much agree that if this is an individual, it is rude at best not to give another buyer a chance. Probably not a HOG, I think!
 
I wouldn't be surprised if it was a Banned or otherwise pathetic anti-Busse troll just trying to mess with people. Like bearcut or some other loser.
 
I'm a rabble-rouser, LeatherHog. I've been known to whip or a s-it storm or two in my day.

So, now that you're awake, get to sewing

There is a type of pathetic loser whose life is so insignificant as to have no positive impact at all on others. The only way this person has to draw attention to himself and feel any kind of self importance at all is to get in the way of people who are superior to him and somehow to impede them a little as they go about their lives. This is the person who crosses the street very slowly, or pauses, for the sole purpose of making someone else wait, or the person who sits in his car a while longer with his brake lights on solely because someone else is waiting for the parking space. To get angry with these people and to manifest frustration is exactly what they want, as they have no other source of gratification in their wretched little lives.

The proper response to these people is to feel pity, mixed with a little sincere contempt, and go about your business, leaving them miserable in the fact that they are being ignored by their betters.
 
There is a time limit on your cart.......U have only so long to shop I did a little test I put things in my cart about every 3 or 4 min I didn't ck out right away and EVERY TIME I waited to long to ck out it would clear its self....So saying that I don't think someone can hogtie it for very long with out it clearing it self......... my 2 cents
 
Looks like skunk disabled the "hogtied" function. When an item is gone, it simply disappears from the inventory list.
