On May 22nd, FFXNo1 and I agreed to a trade. The trade was my F.E.A.R. (PS3) in exchange for a $40 Postal M.O. I sent on the 25th of May and he recieved on the 30th of May. He claims he sent the same day he received. Since then I haven't gotten my money order. On June 8th I asked for details of the money order. The trader told me that he didn't send a money order, that in fact he sent some game instead. So I asked when I was gonna get my money. He told me I will get it once I sent the game back. I told him I wasn't going to wait due to a mistake HE made. That wasn't fair and he wanted me to pay for return shipping. So I asked for the DC# to atleast see where this game was. He exclaimed that he didnt pay for DC even though we agreed on it originally in our trade.

Once I told him I would be filing a BTR, he just threatened to file on me. He has made no attempt to remedy this situation and I'm am tired of dealing with him
I am the one out a game and I am still waiting...

So Now I'm here, no PS3 game and still no money order. I cannot prove he sent a game nor can I prove he sent one to me. He says he has a slip saying he sent something. So Unless I get my money order or my game is returned to me, this BTR will stay up.

First of all I tried to work something out. I thought I was dealing with a honest trader, but I think I was wrong. For you actions and lack of interest to resolve this problem, I'm certain that you are a child. I never told you that I wanted you to pay for shipping the game back and you never asked me to pay for the shipping. I told you that I wanted the game back and then I send you the M.O. But it seems that you want to rip me off and keep the God Father. I send two packages (from two trades) one got to its destination and the other one you decided to keep and claim that you never got it.

I send you the God Father because you send me this in my post:

My trade and your post

Godfather for my FEAR? If so, send offer.

You were the one who offered FEAR for The God Father after I offered you the $40 for the FEAR.

Your post and my offer

I can do it, send me the offer. I'll send you a money order.

As you can see I got confused because you offered your FEAR for The God Father after. The slip you called is called a RECEIPT from the post office, this proves that I send the game. If you want I can send you the receipt. I'm going to post office today and see if if I can prove you already got the game. They must have a record from that package I send and hopefully this stupid moderators do something about this.

I'll pay for all the expenses and I'll send you back your game. I don't have any interest of dealing with you. I might keep this BTR, but I wont let a dishonest trader get away with this fraud.

Near the middle of March I sent out my PSP to him for my part of the trade. He was supposed to send me 90$ dollars, but It's been nearly three months after sending him my item, and he has not replied to any messages and emails I sent him. I didn't want to send this report, but nothing else seems to work, and I am using this as a last resort. I hope the situation can be straightened out in which case I'll remove this report.

Very similar to the situation Weissvulf described. The deal was made on April 6th. I was to send a Mac copy of Star Trek: Elite Force 2 and he would pay me $8. But I was to send first. This was the second time I had dealt with him, so I didn't have any problem shipping first. I sent, he has never marked as received, nor has he contacted me. I have sent repeated emails hoping to finish this deal out.

I hate to have to add the BTR, but there doesn't seem to be any other option. I hope nothing serious has happened to him, and maybe this situation can be sorted out.

A lot like my explanation before. I am truly sorry for the delay, but I did get your money out to you already. Please check your paypal account. I understand you waited long enough as it is without any communication from me, so I don't mind you putting it up. Completely my fault.

We pended a trade on March 29, 2007.

I aggreed to send a Gameboy Advance and he offered me 10 shipped for it.

I sent the GBA out on April 9, 2007 and according to the delivery confirmation it was recieved on April 13th.

Since then, he has told me he has been in some financial distress and would ship promptly when possible and I told him that was fine. It has been about a month and a week since he had recieved but still no money. I thought it would be better to get this over with than to wait any longer. I'll take the BTR down when I get my end of the deal.
