Most likely because you flip out over every nickle and dime. Hey if he agreed to pay you then you have every right to be mad about $3.

imo it looks like a scam.. doesnt matter its 3$. image he makes 'free test scam on 3$' at 10 people a day everyday?
i wouldnt care too much of this money either but this is scam, just on small scale

Its $3 man relax.

Beyond that I would expect a sample to be free unless it was like a sample run of 50 posts or something. Sample is so you can get business, you will have a tough time if you are so intense with people.

I can't even count the number of $3, $5, $10, I've been scammed out of on BHW. I can't even be arsed to post them in the shit list. You know these people are absoloute losers,
they have nothing and are trying to make money off of other peoples backs. They never stick around long because their whole approach to IM is wrong and they're bound to fail.
As for getting upset about it, not a chance! I never hold grudges once I get even I forget all about it. Wait until they're feeling confident before pulling the rug from
underneath them.

I think he is doing it to many newbies who are looking for CL posting jobs. Thats why I open this thread, not because of the 3 dollars.

If u r looking for a sample work I think 1 sample is enough to prove and verify for both sides. I informed him about every detail, told him he will only have to pay if those goes live. I am not intense. I did some sample, all those went live, he got offline without saying anything about his satisfaction level. He even asked me to look for a writer to write some unique ads for him. Does that mean he wasn't satisfied at all? He chose another poster, thats fine with me but he should have told me about it and pay me the money. Do u think I should continue proving free samples to everybody?

Thanks for your wise words man. I will also forget that.

I have carefully reviews all the transactions with a fine-tooth comb.

I have ascertained that
1. it may or may not be a scam - hard to tell
2. you are both idiots - NOT hard to tell
3. don't post this shit here
4. thank you very much kind sirs.

p.s. i didn't really read it all - what a waste that woudl have been. the first few sentences tell you all you need to know

Username isn't posted, what is the point of this thread?

If you delete this thread, i will personally paypal you $3.

If you're scrapping over $3 you have even bigger problems.

Don't delete this thread let us know who the hell the stingy bastard is so we don't have to deal with them in the future. Seriously that's the reason you post here is to let us know who it is to avoid.
