Another Brad's victim!!! We agree to send games and payment at the same day (09/10/98). I have sent all the games (worth $260) that he wanted just like we agreed before. But now, I still haven't received his payment. Regular mail like that shouldn't take more than a week to arrive from coast to coast. Avoid him at all cost! I am just wondering, how can he had such a lot of confirmed trade in his page? I trusted the list, but now I am going broke!

This guy was gonna give me WCW vs nWo World Tour for my Star Wars: Shadows of the Empire. I thought this was a fair trade, so I agreed to it. He said that he was moving to California in 2 weeks so I had better mail to him quickly, so I did. I mailed it out on Tuesday, Sep 15. And he said he would do the same. Well I still haven't gotten the game yet, and it's Sunday, Sep 20th. I also sent him emails asking him when he sent it out, and telling him that I sent mine out. He just replied with, "Oh man, those d@mn postal employees are too lazy". Only after I sent it, did the "Bad Traders" part of the UGTZ open up, so I didn't see this guy's address as one of the bad traders, only under a different name. Apparently, he has this stuff sent to Chicago, then it gets transported to him in New York. He goes by different names, Johnny Smithson, Johnny Coleman, and Shawn Robinson. DO NOT TRADE WITH THIS GUY!!! I also have a friend who traded with him just two days after I did, and he didn't realize it either. So now, he's lost his games too. We'll get this guy, don't worry, we will, oh yes, we will.

We agreed on me sending him The Complete Ultima VII and Caesar 2 in return for Fallout (isn't it odd that he tried to trade Fallout with other traders as well?) After two months I have still not got the game or an explanation. I have repeatedly e-mailed him about it, but sofar he hasn't answered.
