The deal was $8 for a complete near mint copy of BMX XXX for Gamecube. It was the 16th of June. I sent payment via paypal. I have the receipt and emails I can forward to Bill if need be. Anyhow he was very polite when speaking to me and said everything would be handled and then he stopped answering me. I don't like having to post a BTR but hopefully this will get something done. $8 may not seem like alot but when you have a 9month old baby $8 is $8 that you could have put into doing something else. I don't have money to throw around. Brad hopefully this can be taken care of and when it is I will remove this.


UPDATE August 17, 2003.
He responded right after I first posted the BTR saying I'd get my money back. Then hasn't responded since. I've emailed him about 4 or 5 times since and he hasn't replied. I don't like having to do this but I also don't like being ripped. Brad you're being very inconsiderate and immature. You need to grow up, fess up, and take care of the problems you've gotten yourself into.

On June 15, 2003, Me and Gizmodvd agreed on a trade of my shenmue II (Xbox) and $5 paypal, for his sega nomad battery pack. I sent first because he had more trades. A couple days later, I received an email from GameTZ about having a pending trade with a person with a BTR. I didn't wan to jump to cnclusions so I emailed him and told him that if he dares to rip me off, he is done on the site. Then he emails me back and just cusses me out. Then the next day I get an email from him, it was a different address, and it was a virus. The butt munch didn't realize that hotmail scans all outgoing attachments for viruses before they are sent, so I got an email from hotmail saying that an email with a virus has been sent to you, blah blah blah. So I email him on that, he said his computer is infected with a virus and is sending them to people on his email list. Yeah right. Well now he has like 3 BTRs. And I am going to contact the Moorpark Police on this. I am also filing mail fraud. I am also mentioning the other victims of this person in the police and mail reports.

Brad and I pended a trade on april 14 2003 for a $15 money order from me and B/M's for GB pokemon red and donkey kong land, GBA super mario world 2, SNES super mario world and super mario kart.....15 GB plastic cases from him.

Since he had a high star at the time we were going to send same time.

He received his end then several weeks later I emailed him to see why I had not gotten my end yet. I emailed him several times and even posted in some of his forum posts. He finally got back to me and said that he had shipped the package by ups. I asked for the tracking number. He wrote back saying he confused mine with another and that he hadn't sent but would do so soon.

I waited again for awhile then started emailing him again getting no response until the threat of a BTR was made. He then checked again and said he had not sent out and that he would do so that day and even include some extra items for my trouble. I emailed him back saying alright but to please send me the tracking number right away. I never got a response back. Now I see Brad has gotten 2 BTR's in the last few days and I tried to instant message him on AIM and got no response as well.

Brad please send me the package as promised or my money back and I will gladly remove this BTR. If it is already sent please send me the tracking number.

We agreed on a trade June 5 of this year. I know its only been 3 weeks but this is the only way I feel I can get through to him. Please send back Castlevania Symphony of the Night or send out Final Fantasy Anthology. You have taken advantage of me and that is unacceptable. I will glady take this BTR down when I recieve either one of those.


Update:
He told me he confused mine with another trader from a different site.
Seems funny how he could do this to me and Toadreaper...

2nd Update: I finally recieved the game...however it did not include the instructions like he had promised before the trade was pended...This BTR will not come down until those arrive...I'm sorry but this is absolutely ridiculous
