I think that's a good plan. I've had plenty of interactions where the other party is not responding to some simple direct questions. not everyone behaves the same although one would think its simple. but the moment you say I can't pay you until xy date...my immediate reaction is that's not my problem. come back to me when you are ready to buy

Agree on this. No offense to the OP and I hope you get the frame if it's that great.
I am pretty patient just had WAY too many potential buyers ask about what I am selling, detailed questions, back and forth e mails, etc then I ask buyer if he wants to see the item. Ummmm, maybe next month when I get paid. That usually means, "I would like to own your bike but I can't afford to buy it".

It’s a matter of 5 days. It’ll be hear in the blink of an eye.
