If he/she was trying to sell it at the ask, there is no guarantee of a fill on a sell order there. With the situation you pointed out, I can remember one time putting in a sell order on a thinly traded stock at the BID and it wouldn't fill. Had the broker call up the mm and it was basically a "no market" so it wouldn't fill.
