    Update: I've decided on first come first, first served due to the world apparently being full of disingenuous people with fake sob stories. Thanks again for your help everyone.
    _________________________________________________________________
    I know this is the dumbgeon, but id like to get some opinions from yall.

    I posted my tires on OfferUp after buying new ones. The old ones have plenty of tread (only 13k miles) and i put up all 5 for a hundred bucks because i just wanted to make sure someone would bite.

    First person contacts me and says they want them, i say sure.

    Another person contacts me saying he wants them and theyre a great deal for his father in law who is on social security fixed income, 88 years old.

    Id rather give them to the second guy. I was gonna tell the first guy:

    “Hey i have another guy is saying that he wants these for his father in law who is on a fixed income social security. I’d rather sell these to him. But if he bails i will let you know asap, im sorry to flip flop on you.”

    You think i should do first come first served or sell them to the second guy with the low income father in law?

    I dont wanna just ghost the first guy so i might as well be honest even tho its kind of unusual.

    Follow your heart. It's tough out there. Make someone a deal, and feel better. I left a $10 tip on a $14 ticket and made a girl cry yesterday. Help a brother out. Lol

    I’d tell the first guy what you want to do and if he’s okay with it then you’re good to go. If not, then it is on him.

    yep
    my first thought when I read this was the second guy is full of it. Too many details no one asked for, smells like BS to me.

    Unless you stipulated first come first serve or something to that effect, you offered, first guy accepted, deal made. That’s a scumbag move to make a deal and crawfish on it.
