@ Niel,
I think the question in this thread that need some answer, is why is this happening. What can we do to prevent this from happening in the future and can also be benificial to both parties.
Have we really look hard what is causing these problems that will make a seasoned member resort to PP complain knowing very well that it will only hurt everybody? Archibald just got his problem settled with Trusty after almost a year, Luckky has dropped a few, Neil has so much problem regarding communication to buyers after money has been sent, to name a few, and so as selfish members not knowing the impact of thier actions
Most of us can probably feel comfy not knowing what will happen to our money after a few weeks or months without any answer to your comunication to a dealer, but not all of us feel that way. IMO these are the reasons why a member will do such a barbaros act. I think the only dealer here that I have not heard any complain from anybody at all (except the new ones) is Narikka. Have we ever proven that a member made a PP complaint and some other problems just for the reason to hurt the dealer?
Niel sugesstion on a different mode of payment will surley fix problems regarding problematic members and PP complaints, but will it fix the problems of the members regarding thier dealers. It should be a two way street.
I think there is no answer to this problem that can benifit both parties. This is the internet. Everybody is friggin free to do what ever they want.
