Re: First glass purchase ... buyers remorse ... maybe
To expand on Cavscout's comment, I think you're confusing "buyer's remorse" with "shipping anxiety".
<span style="text-decoration: underline">Buyer's Remorse</span> is when the buyer realizes they bought a piece of shit. This is not what's going on in your case. This would apply in a Counter Sniper or BSA purchase. Normally it's a mistake only made once, however I have read of some people repeating the process expecting a different outcome (BTW, that is the definition of insanity).
<span style="text-decoration: underline">Seller's Remorse</span> is a much more common phenomenon. This is when the seller of an item realizes after selling there is a deep dark hole where his soul used to be. In some cases this is accompanied by a sick feeling similar to nausea and a dryness in the throat that only the finest alcohol infused liquid can fix. The best treatment for seller's remorse is purchasing other items to take the place of what was sold. The seller while waiting on these new acquisitions to arrive can experience several issues of their own, listed below.
<span style="text-decoration: underline">Shipping anxiety</span> is when the buyer has an item somewhere in space with no real knowledge as to where his/her item is. Some companies offer tracking as a way to tease the buyer with vague descriptions of locations near and far that their item could possibly be located at. The feeling of shipping anxiety is also a kin to "back order depression".
<span style="text-decoration: underline">Back order depression</span> is when the buyer has to wait weeks, months, and sometimes years for something they wanted immediately. This is not completely the seller/shippers fault since the buyer in most cases knew when they bought/ordered the item that it was not in stock. Occasionally this can be a good thing. For example when the spouse of the buyer get's home and finds a box on the porch. 9 times out of 10 the spouse will ask the buyer, "What the hell did you buy this time?!!". In an instance of back order the buyer can simply say, "Oh honey, don't you remember? I told you about this ____ months ago when it was back ordered." Additionally on smaller purchases it is possible to even forget that an item is coming. When it arrives unexpectedly it's like Christmas in July (if item arrives in July).
I hope this helps. Enjoy your new scope bro.
