Potential bad trader...seeking advice

Name this person here, enough is enough already, you were more than generous in not naming them as this unfolded. Not sending extras when they were agreed upon is the final kick in the nuts. They deserve a public shaming.

 

id like to know what beer was involved in this trade as well (not that it matters). But yea if extras were agreed and he didnt add any definitely id give him a bad rating. sounds like this guy sucks and id like to know who he is so i dont ever trade with him

 

If you agreed upon it, they are not “extras”, they are random included locals. Extras are what you throw in above and beyond the agreed upon trade. So in my opinion, he did not live up to his end of the trade. No need to publicly shame them, just give negative feedback and move on.

 

Looking at that there may have been a innocent misunderstanding. To avoid this I always summarize the trade before shipping as follows

"I am shipping X,Y,Z

You are Shipping A, B, C.

I will ship (day)

My ship to address is ..."

This avoids any potential misunderstanding. If extras was part of the agreement "2 local extras" would be included in both sides for the summary.

 

Yeah the summary is key.

I've definitely been doing this a lot more as of late

 

Yeah I don't see anywhere there where it was confirmed about him sending extras, unless it was somewhere else in the post. I agree after the hassle he should have hooked the OP up, but nothing said he was for sure sending extra. I've noticed with social media traders they almost never do extras and if they cross onto BA then those traders usually stay with that mentality. Extras are just extra though so in the end as long as I get my confirmed trade beers I'm usually happy.

 

So I wonder what finally got the deal done?

Mod message?

He finally decided to just send it?

 

Yeah if that's the reason.....that sucks.

Tbh if people avoid leaving feedback....it shouldn't drop off...they should just be banned from the trade forum until feedback is left.

 

Even more reason to name the trader in question.

 

@dabrees

 

You can leave feedback and even if the other side does not leave feedback your feedback can be seen in their trading feedback. I have 2 trades that are still open that I received my end and left feedback. One of them I am waiting for a break in weather in MN to ship (of course this is communicated and accepted by the other side) and the other my side is scheduled to be delivered today. I just looked at both those traders pages and my feedback is visible even though they haven't left feedback for me yet.

 

He did in a previous post. But didn't tag him

 

I sent this box a while back. @tspoke here is the tracking link: https://www.fedex.com/apps/fedextrack/?tracknumbers=774443906291

So do you have the box or not? It shows delivered. I haven't left feedback because I'm really use and don't prioritize this. Yes I am slow to ship because I have a lot on my plate in life at the moment. Please update so you're not smearing my name more

 

Based on the facts so far reported, the only person smearing your name is you. And if you have a lot on your plate, DONT TRADE! Very unfair of you to put trading partners in undesirable situations because of your irresponsible trading behavior.

 

Bingo. Waiting for the "it's just beer, no one died" statement. If you have a lot on your plate, focus on that and not trading. I also thought this was rich, "I don't prioritize this." Um, you have several open trades and continue to seek out more - posted a reply on a trade minutes ago. Life comes at you fast.

 

@jrnyc understood. I'm offering to ship first and being clear there may be delays with my newer trades.

 

I've shipped all my open trades except one. @MattOC
