Hi,

I wanted to get a sampling of what people thought about a trade I'm in the process of. It's on another site but there's more people on here, so I'd be able to get a better sampling. Well here's the short version, I made a trade with a person for a Galactus for quite a few of my figs. So I sent my figs and he received them by the next week. I wait for about two weeks with no response, then pm him and asked about it. He comes back to me and says that someone broke into his house and destroyed all his clix except for his trading clix which was in another room (how very convenient). So we changed up the deal and worked it out where he would just pay me money for the clix I sent. We came to an agreement and he said he would send a MO since he doesn't have paypal. So I wait...and wait...for three weeks...I pm...he said that he'd send me a DC# the following Monday (this past Monday)...so I wait...again...didn't say anything...so I PM him a very straight to the point PM on why it was taking so long and why he doesn't communicate with me more. I would have been very fine if he tells me if he can't or if something comes up, but he only does that when I get on his case. So my question is this...do I give him a bad ref if the money does show up...since the trading experience was not all that great....or give him a neutral or a positive since the money did show up...if it did...

so please let me know what you think. Thanks!

I would give him a neutral....But honestly it sounds like you've been scammed

yeah, I don't know of too many people who burglarize houses to destroy miniature plastic figures to get their rocks off. Most will just steal the television and jewelry. You got totally hosed

Bad ref...without a doubt. Reminds me of the lame ### that I had to wait 11 weeks for, and plenty of excuses later to receive my fig.

Give no feedback until you're CERTAIN the money will not come. Then, either way, give a bad ref.

Oh yeah, I won't leave any feedback until I'm certain he won't send. But he'll probably send...on the other site, he has over 98 feedback...don't know how he got that with his trade ethic though. But he'll probably send...it's just the experience that's bad and the long wait and the lack of communication that really bugs me.
