Had a pending trade with him since Jan. 1 where we agreed to trade my cash for his ps2+hookups, madden 2002, and GTA 3. I mailed the firts time in mid january, even though I had more trades than him, I was in desperate need of a PS2 and his switchhouse ratingS were good besides trying to sell copies. On Jan. 21st my initial envelope came back saying that it was the wrong address. I emailed him immediately and was told that the mailer is funny like that. He adjusted his address and gave me it to send to. He tells me that he received my second mailing on Sun. Jan. 27th. I email him after a week and ask him if he has sent. He says no but it is packaged and ready to go. After badgering him, he finally comes clean on Feb. 23rd and says that he's sorry and will send by sat. or mon. He had to finish FFX. ON Feb. 27th he asks for my shipping address again as though I never gave it to him. On Sat. March 2nd he says his Mom sent that Thurs. I received the ps2+hookups, and madden 2002. There was no GTA 3 to be found. Immediately I emailed him stating so. In the next few weeks I emailed him at both email addresses numerous times. After no replies I phoned his home, calling long distance to california from Wisconsin. It was March 28 2002 around 1:00 central time. His mother answered and woke him up. He was surprised to hear that GTA3 did not get to me and he said he would check up on it. He instructed me to call him back the next day. I called back at around 6:00 central time. His mother said he was in the shower. She said I should call back in 10 minutes. I called back and asked him about the game. He said he would send the following day and it should get to me by that Monday. I have heard nothing from him since. It makes no sense to me why he would complete a large portion of the trade and not send one of the games. It also makes no sense to me how he was so surpised that the game hadn't gotten to me one day and the next day he was ready to send it out. If I get my game or some money back I'll gladly erase this BTR. With traders like this it makes you not want to trade at all.
