kntabdguy Posted February 16, 2007 Report Share Posted February 16, 2007 I recently sent payment for a watch from a fellow member on tuesday morning. I was getting good and timely responses during the transaction. As soon as I sent payment.....nothing. No confirmamtion of payment. No explaination of delays..... NOTHING. He was suppose to let me know the tracking # when he sent the watch and of course (are you following the pattern) NOTHING!!!! I have checked and he has been on the forum everyday and I have sent very civil emails wanting to know what is going on....and NOTHING!!!! We are both in the US and I definetly should have the watch or some expaination by now. He is a VIP member and has sold a few watches on all the boards. I did some checking, after the fact, and he has had some negative feedback on past deals. I don't know if I was stupid or what because I had a problem with him before. I had a couple of DRSD for sale on TRC back in December, trying to raise some christmas $$$'s, and he comitted to buy one of them. Well I took him for his word and considered it sold and sent him my PP info. What did I hear from him.........yes you are right........ NOTHING!!!! To make matters worse the member that did buy it filed an immediate complaint with PP for non receipt. My fault, I had my office mail it for me and they sent it regular mail with no confirmation. I had nothing to dispute his dispute! Ironically enough it was in the same state as the first guy. He was making excuses immediately about how packages were missing from his complex but assured me that as soon as the package arrives he will drop the dispute. Well the dispute is over I am out the watch and $$$'s. This guy was a newbie and was contributing to the boards. Well, after this happened he has been a regular visitor but doesn't post anymore. Imagine that!! I was reluctant to bring this to the board as I give everybody the benefit of the doubt. But I believe I have been patient enough!! Thanks for letting me vent.

KB Posted February 16, 2007 Report Share Posted February 16, 2007 One quick question, if you see him on the board everyday have you tried sending him a PM? Ken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woody Posted February 16, 2007 Report Share Posted February 16, 2007 wait til after the weekend, because that member might be prepping your watch to be shipped this weekend. I think I might have a clue of whom you are talking about. But if you have read and heard about his bad previous deals, and have experienced first hand yourself, why did you go through with the deal again? was his price that attractive or something?

kntabdguy Posted February 16, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2007 Ken I wasn't on when he was I looked at his profile to see when his last visit was. Woody I hope this is the case but wouldn't you think he would at least let me know what was up. As to dealing with him again I didn't realize it was the the same guy as his screen name is similar to another members. The watch, if described correctly,is one that isn't available anymore.

Indyclmbr Posted February 17, 2007 Report Share Posted February 17, 2007 Rod, Hope it works out for you. Give it a few days and if still nothing, maybe consider outing him or telling him that he leaves you no choice but to identify him to the forum. Climb on.

AMK000 Posted February 17, 2007 Report Share Posted February 17, 2007 Give it few days ... maybe two to three weeks .... then if nothing happens ....name the guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kntabdguy Posted February 17, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2007 Hey Indyclmbr....great weather huh!! Yea in my last email to him that is what I told him I would do. I figured I would wait through the weekend and hope for the best!! Amk000 I don't think I will be that patient! Makiel Yea the guy from TRC deserves the anger! We'll wait and see if anything happens with the other guy. I really believe it will get resolved with out much further action. It justs frustrating!!!!

b16a2 Posted February 18, 2007 Report Share Posted February 18, 2007 Certainly pays to be that extra bit patient with cases like this. Once names are thrown around, mud can stick, you were very sensible in waiting a bit longer. I'm glad you got a resolve! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jec97t Posted February 18, 2007 Report Share Posted February 18, 2007 REP OR NO REP...HONOUR IS STILL HONOUR. A man is nothing without it...This guy should give the snake a week, then if still nothing...out him! On this website, that is. JEC Really makes me angry that such people exist... We're talking about reps...to screw someone for a few bucks you have to be a @#$$%%!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
