Why wont my phone deliver texts to one person

[Android Central Question]

I found this guys number on craigslist for a bike I want. I've been trying to contact him, but the messages only send but dont deliver. I've sent test messages to other people and they go through instantly. I am out of the country but I doubt that is an issue? Please help

Maybe blocked from getting texts or can't receive texts only calls ? I'll leave a link to register so you can communicate here , as a guest account you can't.https://forums.androidcentral.com/showthread.php?t=409154

Welcome to Android Central! It's probably something on his end. Can you email him through Craigslist instead?

Possible he still has a land line, they don't get texts obviously. Although rare some people have texting blocked on their cell plan as well.

Did the ad say "text", or was it just a phone number? If it doesn't say to text him, the chances are it's not a cellphone. (Besides, unless you're planning to be back in his area soon, the whole idea of Craig's List is to buy and sell locally. Almost no one on Craig's List is going to ship to another country.)
