BAD TRADER: troygreer

A lot of unanswered questions but let's hear from you @troygreer.

 

Once again, need to say it, trading is a luxury, not a hobby. Way too many people who should not be trading because they don't have the time, money or proper focus on responsibility are trading and resulting in bad trader threads.

It is an addictive hobby, but not a necessity as there is plenty of good beer available to most people without trading.

 

Looks like the brewery he's opening might be called "Broken Strings Brewery" ??

All these threads make me .

I'm surprised you waited more than 2 months to call him out. I would give a month, tops, because yea sometimes shit comes up.

 

Time lapse is very concerning. When will people learn that half of the time this crap is avoided simply by taking a few minutes per week to send a couple messages!

But @troygreer has 7 feedback and an avatar, which is a bit much to lose. No reason to expect a blowup like we've seen recently.
Also, the online flaming his brewery would get if he bungles a trade would be bad for business.

 

thread title updated to include the user name @troygreer for searchability in the future.

 

Come on @troygreer make things right on your obligations. Lots of Orlando BA's on this site(including myself), and hearing shit like this leaves a bad taste in the mouth...

It seriously does not take that long to ship a package.

 

Sucks there has been such an influx in bad trader threads latley, thankfully I have traded with some awesome people who I wouldnt hesitate to trade with again.

 

It appears that @troygreer was recently logged on so hopefully he'll be making an appearance & (more important) making good on this long overdue trade.

 

@ionlion Can you provide more information on what was up for trade? What did you send him and what was he supposed to send you? If @troygreer does not come through I may be able to make up some of the things you lost.

 

I'll piggy back on that. Hate to hear a fellow Orlando area BA pulling something like this. @basto , I'm happy to assist making @ionlion whole.

 

You aren't implying we would respond by panning his brewery are you?

BTW, great idea, if you are.

 

@troygreer you were viewing a thread 6 minutes ago. Would you care to explain how you have time for that but not enough time to send the beers you owe or even a courtesy message explaining what happened? You're looking bad. IF you make no response to the complaints you look even worse. Going forward how you are perceived is up to you...

 

Should be henceforth referred to as "Broken Promises Brewery".

 

I honestly don't know why, when in cases like there where it's not a "he said, she said" situation, but where one party is in blind daylight completely screwing the other party over, why they don't get banned. I feel like the asshole here gets way too much freedom and privilege to screw others over, while everyone sits around and says, "well, we told you to do this at your own risk". Why they are still allowed to make ISO:FT posts and what not will always baffle me, and I feel like the victim gets more shit than the person who blatantly stole.

I mean, I could request a trade with someone, receive a hundred dollars worth of beer in the mail, tell them to kiss my ass when they ask where their beer is, and then do the same thing the very next day to someone else with no repercussions. That ain't right.

 

sweet, a @cavedave like! I am implying that would happen.
Not exactly saying it should. Or shouldn't. Depends on beer quality...

That might shut down the best option for contacting the bad trader for both OP and other interested parties. Also the best option for pressuring them to rectify.
It would be pretty cool if they could be banned from posting anywhere besides this Help sub-forum, so they can't post any ISO:FTs.
