Brother Ranz did not send package

[brettness37]

On January 23 Brother Ranz claimed to be sending an Infinity Rulebook within the next day or two, I pm'd Feb 3 asking for confirmation of shipping, after not hearing back for almost 2 weeks I sent another PM and was told he lost his Political appointeeship and he was no longer trading just selling and I must have been missed in his communications.

If dealing with Brother Ranz be sure to have goods in hand before paying/sending your side.


I'm missing his very first pm to me.

Really? I guess I have no idea what it's worth. I am interested in:

The Therians mostly.

The other stuff, potentially.

I have no Combined troops, but I do have a mint rulebook.

hi

Some of your feedback is questionable, as such, I will need you to ship first for us to trade. If that works for you, let me know.

Thanks

The Therian stuff is worth about $50 individually @ thewarstore.com, and the Infinity Rulebook is $38. I'd be willing to go straight across, since I got them from the starter box.

Hey man

We're at 13 days since I last emailed you for an update, without a response. I'm starting to feel some concern, since I haven't seen a package or heard from you. Can you let me know the date you shipped, since I've never had a package take more than 2 weeks from the US.

Thanks
Brett

I thought I emailed you aobut this. Things have taken a turn and I'm selling everything I don't absolutely need. I was a political appointee and we finally got a new commissioner and he unappointed me. I'm sorry I missed you in the pms.

No, I'll keep my side of the deal if you shipped, and I'll retract. It's important to me if you didn't that you don't get money from someone else, then not ship. I'm sorry if you feel my response is harsh, but it's the only way to protect people from being ripped in this community.

Alnog with the other issues. I moved at the start of the month. I don't see the book or any other infinity stuff around here, so I think it's been mailed. Either way, keep your stuff. If I find the Infinity laying around I'll send it. If you get it pm me.

[insidius]

Looks like a backed out trade to me.

Thank you for posting your proof.

[brettness37]

Woops, I was trying to edit and add continued communications.

[flagg07]

Good job. The 1st thing that pops out at me is the fact that he was willing to ship 1st even though he had double the feedback. Good call on your part with that.

What was the "questionable" feedback you mentioned? I can't seem to get his FB since I don't have his name or e-mail address. Thanks.

[GrimDog]

this guy (Ranz) is the king of the trade backout. He has initiated contact with me several times and every time has backed out in the 11th hour. I have put him on my personal DNT list.

You have PM.

[Elementswarden]

This is not proof. It could be doctored cut and paste and he may have sent the email. It does sound like a back out but no more. The only thing you lost was a little time. I would not consider it a bad trade but many do...

Read the B-town bad trader rules,this is consided a bad trade

[brettness37]

I'm pretty sure the admin can follow up on that sort of chicannery, and Brother Ranz himself could come here and dispute the facts as he was kept aware of what was happening, while it was happenning, and chose not to.

It does sound like a back out but no more. The only thing you lost was a little time. I would not consider it a bad trade but many do...

The opinions on this part of your post have been debated ad nauseum, and I've followed the rules of the site. At best the trader here is discourteous and inconsiderate, at worst a liar and possible scammer. It's been a few weeks since our last communications, where he claimed to have actually sent me MY book (it became mine when he agreed to the terms of the trade), presumably so far in the past he can't recall wether or not he actually sent it. It's still not here, you do the math.

[daner0023]

I had a trade with him that originated here on Bartertown and went to e-mails so they didn't let me give him negative feedback.

This guy is a slime ball. He returned my goods damaged and sent me some crap I didn't want to "compensate". He blamed the damage on me after I got my stuff back SIX WEEKS LATER. Unfortunately, by sending the stuff back USPS he VOIDED my insurance with UPS and he never refunded my shipping money.

DO NOT TRADE WITH HIM! LIFE IS TOO SHORT TO HAVE PEOPLE LIKE THIS IN YOUR LIFE FOR ANY REASON!

Who is this "they" you speak of?
If the trade started here, then it would have been a valid BTR thread. Read the rules. It even states that you have to have certain proof, and lists complete emails as one of the options for proof.

For the record, anyone accusing him of anything really should start their own threads. The Mod team doesn't like people adding "He ripped me off, too" (or whatever) into an existing thread.
