There is someone with a Lil Temp on a couple forums I belong to.I emailed him and replied in his thread.I see that he has been online at least twice since my email and has not responded.
Do I wait longer or go ahead with something else?

I think a first time response from a seller to a buyer, either via a sale on a forum of from an inquiry at an internet store, should be within 24 hours (business days - weekends excluded) after replying or e-mailing.

Unless you know this person and thier average reponse times, I'd say 24hrs is plenty of time.

But I'd also say go looking at 2-3 different sources at the same time.

Thanks,I emailed him last night and I wouldn't be thinking about a responce this soon really but its just that I have seen that he has been online.I will give it until tonight and if I haven't heard anything I will get the Stretch.

Re: your oringinal enquery, if you have not heard from him or her by now, effem :p . The Lil Temp Rules. This Lil fireplug is one of Spyderco's best kept secrets. I suggest you find another source for this Lil Beauty. To me, it is the "Colt .45" of folders.

It also depends on his JOB.. My job keeps me off the computer but wireless tech keeps me on sometimes.

Post a reply to him on the forums also.
