I meant physical address. I agree email addresses should be used, sorry for any confusion. Although a bit extreme, it’s highly possible that somebody who got ripped off would literally want to go and kick the seller’s ass. It would be bad if he kicked the wrong person’s ass huh?
I started a timewasters thread on the feedback section a while ago. I got a couple of crybabies posting on it about how I should be more patient with people who waste my time. Haven’t looked at it so I don’t know if anyone kept it alive.
What pisses me off the most is when a fool says that he’s gonna sent payment. Then sends nothing or says nothing. So I’m sitting there holding an item for someone who isn’t gonna pay for it.
gay.
Those fools should be banned.
Wall of Shame should be renamed to Wall of Fail.
WHO’S WITH ME?!
shit just got REAL. lol.
Well after the situation last night, I’m just tired of dealing with the noobs here.
networkingyuppy and lazeeya, try not to let one 13 yr old noob with insecurity issues sour your opinion. most of us are in it for the long haul and aren’t so damn annoying.
I find this topic ironic…
Still agree with this thread as i’ve had quite the bad transaction when im the buyer with a few i’ve recently did business with…I wont go into details with it yet…
Grime: Truly grimey alright. I offered a DC agetec PCB with Quick Disconnects for $24 shipped. PMed me twice that he’d give me $20 shipped. I told him I agreed, and then he never messaged me back. Fucking windowshopper/time waster. (Feb 09 joindate, big surprise)
i’m gonna assume that a lot of the people that will end up on this list will come here to defend themselves too
hey man it is not just us noobs. In fact I’ve only been here a couple weeks and already have a couple good transactions.
YOu should just go ahead and post usernames like over at new geo
All for it.
The 2nd link was hilarious, however the first post was written with sincerity and honesty. I agree with keeping your opponent at sword’s edge, but having a wall of fire behind you as well. The issue I do have… is the issue of a deposit. Last I checked, a deposit was required as a signature of sorts that you meant business… Not a false pretense. The fact that those users (or anyone) got their deposit back is amazing. Go Lazeeya.
AFA I’m concerned, the only thing I would like to mention is once you attempt to contract with someone – don’t go around to every other person in the damn world and ask THEM to do work as well. As a designer with no physical product, this has been a problem for me. Shop around, yes, but don’t pay 9 people ‘deposits’ and then retract 8 of them in the end…
Do your research and pick a servicer because it suits you. I personally don’t care if you pick someone else who will design something for you or not – it’s $10 for 6 hours of work on my part. I make 200-900 times that selling logos that take less than 2 hours. Ask me to do work because you require a professional environment to convey your ideas, not because “ey3 getz da mon1ez & y0u w1n f@st3r”
Ok i decided to put one of the names up on this wall of shame…
Ok here’s what happen to me with this transaction…
I was looking for Tatsunoko vs Capcom & he said he had one for trade…He then said he had the stick for it too…He wanted 5 Wii games from me (4 sealed) & we were good. So i ship my games out & then he tells me he changes his mind…He did return the games but i lost out on shipping ($12)…I’ve asked him to refund me the shipping but hasn’t replied since…I checked his profile & i see that he logged in yesterday, so yeah…Maybe someone who know him can haggle him to make things right…I know its only $12 but yeah it pissed me off cuz i missed out on a deal here in the trading forum who had the game i wanted + freeloader to play it…
Im more then willing to edit his name out if he pays me for my shipping…I have 2 other users to callout but currently pending
^That is a shitty thing to do, back out on a deal and then not reimburse someone for their expenses for your flaking out. Sorry to hear that.
that drama in your thread was ridiculous. best part was this though :d:
destroyed.
here’s some more good drama

also the Canadian box makers threads in tech talk are pretty good too. going in each others threads and talking trash. and then a bunch of noobs are crying that $80 is too much for a stick like dudes shouldn’t have any incentive at all to do work for them. new members = more drama. i love it
$80’s…that’s not half bad. LOL…i had some fool messaging me. “hey lazeeya, i want a complete Sanwa PS3 custom stick with artwork, im looking to spend between $50-$60 bucks.”…
you can only imagine what i said back to him. LOL.
Hey rcaido,
I’ll come clean. Ha, the guilt is killing me. I sent out the package this week and it’s going to be here on the 20th. Otherwise I deserve the neg feed for taking too damn long to ship the Mayflash case out. Rest assure man, it will arrive
yeah, something very similar happened to me, but i feel it was my fault because i didn’t explain well enough. some of these guys just look at the pictures if you have them and ignore everything else you write. i wrote a lot of stuff in my first two posts, so i can’t get mad if people skipped it (though it would make everyone’s life easier:wonder:).
I wasn’t really going to justify this thread with a response in one way or another, but I’ll just wanted to comment on how you (networkingpuppy) are calling out noobs, when you’ve been here, what 5 months? Just a month before the 2009 cut off date for selling in the trading outlet?
But you’re obviously a good trader so I don’t have a problem with you wanting to help weed out the bad traders. I just don’t like you singling out the newly registered when you yourself are still new (at least according to this screen name. You might have used another screen name or have been a lurker for years for all I know). I think the newly registered already have it hard enough with the 2009 rule.
Anyway, I think the neo-geo system works really well, but it’s been said that the trader rating system can’t be implemented here, which is unfortunate, but just a reality. I also agree that although a feedback forum does exist, it’s not as visible or visited as the Trading Outlet and I do support there being a sticky for bad traders. That being said, a mod should have started it instead of this kind of vigilante effort. Asking a mod through PM or Mr. Wizard through PM to set up an official one would have been a better route to go through and given it much more credibility. Hopefully, they will take in upon themselves to start an official one where people can PM cases to mods and they can make decisions on whether to add them to the ongoing list of bad traders or not.
Again, just my thoughts.

One thing I find frustrating about the Feedback forum, is that threads are deleted. I have been doing business for a year now, and had a previous positive feedback thread that is nowhere to be found. I have a recent one from around a month ago, but now all my positive feedback is gone from the past year. Some sort of implementation for good standing should be looked in to as well.
You mean this one?

Every forum only displays threads active in the last month. That thread still exists, it’s just hidden. You should ask Fir to merge all 3 threads.
