    Has anyone had success/failure trading with another BA user who doesn't have the trader tag?
    The user is a Meyvn and has been around the site for 6 years.
    Just making sure i'm not setting myself up to get burned.

    I would not do it. It is very easy to sign up as a trader. No reason not to if they want to trade.

    You would not be able to use the trade system or leave feedback.

    Echoing the above responses...ask them to sign up as a trader and then set up an official trade request.

    Highly recommend you request he/she ship first. While you have only 4 trades it's still more than 0. If they put up a fit, bail.

    This is the only way I would do it, fwiw.
