    @mrjones7114

    Trade agreed on for 1 Huna/1 Endless Nameless and a few Good Gourd/Café Americano or other beers from Tampa.
    for
    2 Funky Buddha Morning Woods, 4 Last Snows

    We had done an IP trade through BA and a few other trades this year. I was asked if I could do a favor and mail a box the next day (on a Friday) for a beer share that was on Saturday. I mailed the next day.
    It was delayed on the Saturday and not delivered until Monday.

    Never heard from him again after that.
    I messaged him through BA, and on his cell phone via text. Had a buddy text him and get a response so he's still using the same number.

    So I'm out $100, karma!

    Yeah, he's been floating around for the last month, but not responding to my question about our trade.

    Seemed like a nice guy and had great ratings too, not sure what happen here, but very disappointing.

    I'm sure everyone has seen this, but someone left feedback yesterday for them and it says "Slight shipping delay and spotty communication at times but apologized and made up for it with very generous extras". Seems to be that maybe just recently the communication and shipping have been off because other recent feedback comments were all really good.

    I definitely agree with you there! I was just posting a small light at the end of the tunnel hoping that maybe he's been busy and that the OP can get his brews and some cool extras. He had no control over the shipping being delayed and not making it Saturday and sometimes that stuff happens. The important part is @mrjones7114 did get his beer so the OP now deserves a very nice box back.

    If he was mad due to the delay with the carrier then that is hardly the OP's fault. Personally, I'll never drink beer on the same day it arrives on my door step

    And he still received the beer. If he doesn't want it any longer, he can be a dick and send it back. But either way, he owes OP something--either the agreed-upon trade beer or the OP's beer.

    Since I'm the guy who left him good feedback yesterday, I figured I should contribute my experience to the discussion. @jhurricane - Sorry to hear you're going through this. In my trade, @mrjones7114 and I agreed to a trade with a shipping date of 10/12. He ended up shipping 10/30. He apologized repeatedly and said he was dealing with some stress/issues on the homefront but took longer than I'd have liked to respond to my messages during the delay - usually a couple days. He was always polite and apologetic and he sent a well packed, overly generous box. I struggled with whether to leave good feedback or neutral feedback but in the end decided to leave good but note the issues that occurred. I certainly understand why others would feel differently and in hindsight think I made the wrong call. Sorry, guys. I've adjusted my feedback accordingly.

    I should also note that 2 of the beers I received were Last Snows. @jhurricane - I assume these are yours and will happily send them back to you. BM me your address please.

    That potentially adds a new dimension to the scenario. OP still needs to clarify the timeline, but if his beers were indeed flipped, that kinda makes the whole thing stink a little worse.

    The concept of trading for beers only to immediately trade them away is still beyond me

    Not sure that assumption is correct...there was plenty of Last Snow to go around, FYI. *though mighty generous of you to offer!

    He has messaged me and is fixing the situation. I will remove the post once trade is finalized.

    Very much this.

    The thread stays...people need to know how traders behave.
