    I'm not concerned with being on any list you folks uphold so highly and I have no problem shipping first if I do find myself trading in the near future. I already told Nick, I'm going to send another box in a few weeks to fulfill the original trade.

    You could not be more correct in making the bolded statement. It is not our personal feelings that make you a bad trader....it is the fact that it took you seven months to ship your box.........and that you didn't even send the originally agreed upon beers after that extended wait. It is your bad trading tendencies that make you a bad trader.

    Good on you if you do, and at least you accept to ship first. But there is a reason the list is held highly, hey you even link it in your profile. Just trade the right way from here on out and you can rebuild/build a rep.

    Are you fucking serious? He didn't notice "the line of communication"??? You didn't send til there was a bad trader thread. End of story. Who in their right mind would trade with you???

    Ndepriest, are you in trouble? Is he there? Type 01101 if he's holding you hostage and demanding you clear his name. We'll try to contact the authorities.

    If we needed further evidence that Tom is a stand up guy, he changed his profile pic mid-thread from a super douchey one of himself sitting in his car to a politician-kisses-baby photo of him and his son wearing matching shirt and tie. Ah, Tom, you are so adorable and sympathetic that we are all lining up for the 8 month zombie dust plan you are so generously offering. For a limited time, cell phone number included at no extra charge!

    Well I guess have fun being in your "right" mind and not trading with me. I surely won't be losing sleep over it

    Although the box you sent was very nice, I don't think you should be giving any attitude just yet. xxcaprxx came out as a little aggressive, I'll give you that but take a step back and look at this mess from a different angle. You took way too long.

    It'll take time for this to blow over but it's not impossible to work your way out of it.

    I guess all I'm saying is that Nick(ndepriest) is happy and that's all I care about. Because after all, he should be the only one complaining at this point.

    With all due respect to those who'd like to come here & make stupid comments at your expense, you should understand that this isn't true, but I'll explain it to you, just in case.

    Bad traders have an impact on every one of us. This is a community where we send out packages, often worth $100 or more, on blind faith. When people don't hold up their end of the bargain, or have to have their feet held to the fire in order to make good on what they've said they would do, it affects all of us.

    How, you might ask? Others see these threads & think "No way I'm trading beer" & we lose a potentially good member of the community (& even friends, I've made some great friends through trading). Other traders pull in their beer & decide to stick only with "trusted" traders & shut on the noobies. I could go on, but I hope you get the idea. The trading circle suffers from people who don't bother to follow up on commitments they've made.

    Is this stuff important in the grand scheme of life? Not hardly. But to say "he should be the only one complaining" tells me that you don't understand how a community works. You fucked up. You're trying to make it right. Good for you. But don't expect people to shrug & forget about it, & take the abuse like a man, because you've earned it through your actions.
