Well I won't go into the details of our trade (you can see that on his trades page). But it's been months and I'm missing $500 worth of stuff. :(
I'm just submitting this BTR because his mailbox is now full (probably because of all the traders) and I can't get an email through.
So David, can you PLEASE email me as soon as you get back from holidays. I will remove this report when you do OR if I get my stuff by then.
Hopefully there has been a huge delay with the mail or something. That is getting less likely though.
I'm in the process of tracking my parcel...
Update 7/6
Okay I got a trace done and the parcel was received about 2 weeks after I sent it. I am going to file a complaint with the police and hopefully this guy will get what he has coming to him.

We agreed to a trade in late March! I would send... Legend of Mana, Star Ocean: The Second Story, Suikoden 2, Echo Night (all US Playstation), Koudelka, Granstream Saga, The Misadventures of Tron Bonne, Fear Effect, Overblood (all UK Playstation) and Chrono Trigger Soundtrack for... Wonderswan Color Final Fantasy II Box Set, Final Fantasy I, Romancing Saga and Ultraman (all WSC)!

We agreed to send at the same time (although I have more trades than him). However, I asked that we both send recorded delivery so if anything goes wrong we can track the packages... He agreed. I sent my package on the 5th of April (the day we were supposed to)! I emailed him telling him that it had been sent and he emailed me back saying that he was just on his way to send mine. After not hearing from him for a few days... I entered my tracking number at the Royal Mail website (http://www.royalmail.com) to see if the package I sent had been delivered. It said that the package had been delivered on the 8th of April (3 days after I sent it)! I emailed him afterwards and he said that he got it but was really busy and hadn't checked it all out yet. Since we both live in the UK, the package he sent me should have arrived in a few days (like mine did) but I decided to leave it a week. After the week had gone past, I emailed him asking for the tracking number so I could check it myself. He emailed me back saying he was away for a long weekend and he would email me the tracking number as soon as he got back. A few days later he emailed me back saying he had about 15 tracking numbers written down and didn't know which was which. I emailed him back (by this time, I was getting quite worried) saying send me all the tracking numbers and I will go through them one by one. No reply for about a week and then I got an email from him (on the 26th of April to be exact) saying that he is sorry and the Wonderswan had been returned to him (he said he messed up the mailing address). He then said he would send it back out to me the following day. I emailed him telling him to not forget to give me the new tracking number (by this time, I didn't trust a word he said). However, he never did send me it. On the 30th of April he sent me an email asking whether I had received the Wonderswan... I emailed him back saying no and I again asked for the trackng number. Well, I haven't heard from him since!!! I emailed him yesterday morning telling him that I would post a Bad Trader Report on GameTZ if I didn't receive the Wonderswan today (4th of May) or at least a tracking number that proved it had been sent. You can probably guess that I haven't received either!!!!

If I ever receive the Wonderswan or my stuff back (which I doubt)... I will take down this Bad Trader Report otherwise it will stay up! I have lost well over £200 in this trade so if he thinks I'm just going to forget about it well then he's wrong... I have already started looking into taking further action against him!!!

Well I hate to do this but I feel I have no other options. I made a trade with Pengo in March, I sent him my package and he received in about a week (not bad for international mail). Well he said he mailed out March 15th, air mail, and gave me a tracking number but it has said the same thing for weeks, he said he would send out a trace and send me a scan of the form when it got back, he said it would take a week, well its been over 2 weeks now. I'm out over $600 (items + shipping costs). Now I'm put in a position of even if the package shows up, which I doubt, I won't be here because I have to move in a week. If I get my package this BTR will come down, if not legal matters will be pursued. For every one else who wants to deal with Pengo make him ship first, I know international mail is slow, but not this slow. I'll still be in touch Pengo.

update 5-19
Well still nothing, I bet he has given me a dummy tracking number and has yet to email the scan of the trace he supposedly filed. I have no doubt in my mind that Pengo is a no good thief, I agree with that Pengo will probaly abandon this account. Pengo you can write on your page anything you want, but the facts are that there are numerous people waiting for you to fufil your end of the deal. I stand with my btr and forum posts that you are a scammer/thief. You want it to come down, prove me wrong. Also I have filed a complaint with your local authorities, they should be in touch. For those of you who don't live in the UK like myself here is the link http://www.police.uk/

Update 6-4-02
Well it looks like our friend has ditched his account, nothing since 5-26. I did get an email to him and he actually replied saying he would check with the PO, but nothing since May 29. I've tried to email a couple more times but nothing. Also please see who signed for your packages a V. Woodham or something like that has been confirmed as another alias that was the name for the signature confirmation. In conclusion we've been ripped off by this prick. If your still waiting for stuff from Pengo, well your going to waiting a long time. Put up those btr's and I'm going to email Bill to see if he can do and IP trace to see what other accounts this jerk is using or has recently opened, hopefully this will help many other traders avoid being ripped off by him. Also the gametz.com system has deleted my pending trade because it was over 90 days.

UPDATE 7-18
Well Pengo said he was going to send my stuff back on the 20th of June, didn't happen. He won't respond to my emails any more. All I can do is warn everyone that Pengo is a THEIF and a LIAR. If anyone gets any info drop me an email, I will do the same. Hopefully this scum bag will get whats coming to him.
