I was the winner of 2 items in an auction held by Geno a month ago. The items were Gran Turismo 2 and Street Fighter Alpha 3. After I was contacted about price, address, and other information on the auction I sent out a money order for $15. I haven't heard from him since and reposted to the auction post about my problem to see if I were an isolated incident. Obviously I wasn't. This will be taken down once either I get my items or my money back.

DDR_Freek_Geno held an auction over a month ago, in which many gametz users, including me, bid on and won games and other gaming accessories he had up for auction. I, and the others, sent in payment after we emailed each with information to make a trade. I sent out the money order soon thereafter, and haven't received the game.
I logged on Sunday, October 28 after getting home from vacation to find that other users had had the same thing happen to them. Realizing I most likely was not going to get my game, the other gametzers and I all are filing bad trade reports on this loser of a user. Although thankfully my bid was rather low ($7), others may have had much higher bills to pay. It doesn't matter if the trade was 1 cent or 1 thousand dollars, if you don't follow through, you have to pay the consequences. Unfortunately, I no longer have the emails from this jerk because aol deletes all emails after 30 days, and since this auction ended over a month ago, the emails from me and DDR_Freek_Geno have been deleted. Don't trade with this loser user...EVER.

About 2 months ago I started a trade with Geno, and he agreed to send his stuff first since he had a BTR. I waited patiently, and after about a month it came. I then immediately sent my stuff out the next day, and he still says he hasn't gotten it yet. I then tried the stuff he sent me and it didn't work, and we talked about it and i sent it back with my side. He still says he hasn't gotten my side yet, and that was like 2 weeks ago. He hasn't replied to my instant messages for a long time and im getting sick of it. I can see how other traders have to fall for little or nothing in his trades, i just want my side and for him to tell me that he got the side i sent him, so we can finish this damn trade. Gene, I will take this down when you start to talk and we can figure this out. Thank you.

UPDATE 11/6/01

It has been an incredible amount of time since i sent my packages, and my parents sent them first class priority shipping. Im sure Geno has gotten my side, and he hasn't been on for a long time. I sent games that I really liked, and I would dearly like them back, even though I probably never will get them back. This guy is a total loser, he was really mean in our aim messages and he lied about when he was going to send and instead of apologizing he just yelled at me and then ignored me. I haven't talked to him for a long time, and I feel I have been cheated out of this deal and that I will never see my games again. Bill, I hope you can do something about this, because so many other traders have put BTR's up on him. I guess what people say is true, you don't even expect to get anything back after its so long that you dont get your side. I hope you go to hell Geno, because I'm frankly sick of waiting. Thanks to all the good traders, good night.

Gene, I'm getting tired of waiting for my games to come. This will come down when I get my games. BTW, please reply when I e-mail you and IM you. Jeez...

UPDATE 10/5
I finally e-mail him about his attitude and his failure to send games. He tells me that since I filed a BTR on him, which is more than legitimate, he's taking his sweet time. This is completely blatant and is pissing me off. I'll make sure Bill suspends, if not, delete his account. Also, I'll get my parent's lawyers to sue his fudging ass.

UPDATE 10/9
I actually get a legitimate response from his. Hopefully he'll actually send me my games.
