    A trade between him and brother_kenneth had been agreed upon. After asparkoflife got his box in the mail, he then started with a bunch of excuses. In the end, he never shipped and now hasn't been active since may 11th.

    I had contacted him prior to this and he gave me some bullshit excuse that I let go to give him a final chance. (that was also may 11th)

    (All the details are on the list.)



    If any of you are trading and come across a profile like his, why wouldn't you make them ship first? (take a few seconds to look at it.) asparkoflife



    Again, if anyone has more information on this guy, please send it my way.

    With his job description there maybe some one who frequently visits store could ask him

    What about his profile should have raised red flags? I'm asking because I'm new to trading myself and just sent packages to people with less than that in their profiles, and they seem legit.

    Well personally to me, under 10 trades and 8 posts in the forums.. Sure it can mean nothing but with this kind of info I'd make them ship first.

    Makes sense. I guess since I have zero trades myself my standards weren't quite as high. :slight_smile:

    Well, in the end, he fucked me. But I'm a pretty friendly trader and I hadn't been burned before... so that is why I didn't have a problem with shipping first. Lesson learned. Thanks for taking care of this, oldp0rt.

    Lack of trades, lack of posts, no reviews, very sparse profile... Any one of those might be ok, but all of them definitely means "ship first".

    Hey oldp0rt, you might want to edit the "date reported" column in the spreadsheet. It shows 2020 instead of 2013.

    Mr OldpOrt, you have been way too active for my taste of late. I truly hope you have a very relaxed summer and all of these DoucheCanoes give you a break for the foreseeable future. With that said, thanks for what you do here as you have a shitty job,please know it is very much appreciated. Not at all expected, but very much appreciated.
