BTR bebe-paquito [Resolved by bebe-paquito]

Post by DiscipleofYawgmoth »

I'm sorry that it's come to this and I never thought I'd have to fill one of these out, but it seems like I don't have much of a choice.

On January 21st, 2011 a deal was made between myself and the listed trader. It was supposed to be an army swap of my High Elves for his Tau. January 27th the miniatures on my end were packed up and sent out with delivery confirmation. The package was confirmed to be delivered on January 29th. The last time of contact with this trader was January 26th. His last login was February 11th but in the mean time I have sent privates messages that remain unread.

Matt,

Sorry for the delay. Been a bit hectic, and trying to get around on one working knee is not the easiest for going to work lol. Anyways, yes I am interested in your HE army. Would you be interested in an army swap?

Thanks

Hey Frank,

It's not a problem at all dude. I understand that work and personal stuff comes up. I hope your knee doesn't give you a hard time. Absolutely I'd be more than interested in an Army Swap. I forgot to put in the original list I sent but I also have 6 or 8 Shadow Warriors to put in as well. I can include the Warhammer Fantasy Battle Magic Cards. The one with the core lores. Still new in the box.

Matt,

Did I already send you pictures? If not I can do so as long as you can provide me your email address.

Standard trading I assume? We each cover our own shipping, and provide tracking info as soon as shipment goes out?

Let me know.

Thanks,

Frank.

Hey Frank,

No you hadn't sent pictures. thatkrazykoolguy@gmail.com is mine. All of the models I have are bare plastic save for the shadow warriors which a couple are primed. And of course, we each do shipping and provide tracking. Thank you good sir for the amazing trade.

Hey Frank,

Just giving you an update. I have your minis boxed and ready to go, but due to two days of terribad weather I hadn't gotten them to the post office. Don't want your minis to get soaked now. Provided Florida rain calms down, I'll send them out first thing in the morning. So sorry for the delay.

Frank,

It's week 3. I've seen you log in a couple of times and I really feel like I'm being dodged here. While I understand that emergencies come up or that real life gets in the way but you have to communicate with me. Forgive me for being rude, but I'm setting a timeframe. I need to hear something back from you by the end of the week, Sunday the 20th.

Matt

I've tried to be nice and patient but the timetable I gave is here. I'll be sending him a PM to let him know about this. Thanks you, mods/admins, in advance for any and all assistance.

Okay.
First: This definitely looks like a legit claim to me. Looks like you hit everything you needed.

Second: Why did you send first to someone with 1/5 your rating and a previous negative ref for not providing what they were supposed to. Nothing personal, but it does look like you didn't do your homework on the deal. Of course, I *asked* why you sent first, because I don't know. Not making any presumptions here.


That said, I've got some good contact information for you. Watch your incoming PM's.

You are right. I didn't do my homework on this one. I was just thinking that because I was getting the better deal because the amount of miniatures he was sending had a higher value than mine that I would be the nice person to send my end first. A complete oversight on my part.

FWIW, in case I wasn't clear above, I didn't mean it as a criticism. It was more an expression of surprise.

Oh no no. I know you're not being critical. I took no offense to it.

I attempted contact two more times and nothing so far.

Well, it appears he logged in on Monday and read my PM's. I've received no reply and will continue to keep trying to make contact. So far I think I'm being dodged.

Keep calling.
Call him a few times a day. I don't suggest calling at "improper" hours, but you're not obliged to make it easy for him, either. At this point, he needs to handle his responsibilities.

Marking this as resolved. If any new information needs to be posted, PM a staff member to re-open the thread.
2+2=5 for sufficiently large values of 2.

If you don't have your Location listed in your User Control Panel, why not take a second and update it? It will let your trading partners know where you are from the beginning.

I use the Unofficial Porkuslime Trading Guidelines - if you have way less refs.. you ship first.
