    Incredible amount of drama here for the simple act of two people putting beer in a box and sending it on its merry way.

    Seriously well done everyone - it’s (thankfully) been a long time since we had a HOF contender BT thread

    Since that's in quotations, can you tell us who you're quoting? Forgive me for wondering about the whereabouts of a box two months after I sent mine.

    chill man. was a joke. seems to me like you’re putting too much of the blame on yourself (newsflash you shouldn’t be taking any). but main thing is a) seems like you got/are getting your beers (sorry I skimmed the last page) and b) everyone knows to stay away from jacked stewie

    People are doubting that you will leave neutral or negative feedback for @bstyle as a result of this experience (which he deserves). No one is saying that you should get negative feedback here. Also, no one is mad at you for starting a bad trader thread. It seems justified based on what we know (which is admittedly incomplete since you both refuse to say more here - as is your prerogative). What is confusing is your incessant hand-wringing and waffling over this situation.

    Chilled. I appreciate you clarifying, but as we know from someone who comment in this thread days ago, "quotes" can be shared, and though they're not true in any way, can entirely convince people that they are, when no information is provided, and all eyes are looking down on one person. The last thing I need is for a second person to be putting words in my mouth that I never said. People tend to buy it unquestioningly.

    You're right. I shouldn't be taking any of the blame. I see that now. Yet for some reason, I'm still taking a good half of it.

    I think a lot of people are upset for me starting this thread. Some comments highlight that verbatim. Hell, some of these guys have put me on a physical DNT list, and others have stated they will be. I'm not a bad trader.

    I'm not refusing to say more. I'm not sure why you would think that. What is it that I'm expected to say that I haven't? Ask away. I am an open book.

    All I want here is to minimise the drama and the pokey, sarcastic comments, keep this thread professional and on-track, and address what needs to be addressed. I'm not the one derailing this thread. Look at everyone else.

    1. People aren't upset at you for starting the thread. People are upset at you for starting the thread in the manner that you did, and for conducting the thread in the way that you did. This is laid out pretty clearly in the thread.

    2. If you're going to continually reference "the shit you had to deal with," "the repercussions," and say that "there's a lot more to that" story, then I hope you understand why the community is exasperated by these antics. People want to know details about the things you're alluding to so that they don't suffer the same fate as you did.

    Did the guy promise again and again to ship? Did he provide the original tracking number? What do you keep alluding to that was going on behind the scenes when he found out about the thread? I apologize if you've answered these and I missed them, but I think we appreciate that you're "an open book" now either way!

    Finally. Bad trader tells you to be happy he delivered on his (4th? 5th?) promise of shipping and providing a tracking number two months later than he received his box. What a guy.

    A garbage, bad trader move. Don't blame yourself.

    Not true at all IMO, no matter what this jackass may be texting you privately. If he's angry, he's got nobody else to blame.

    First of all, what? Guns? Second, OH NO, HE'S CUTTING TIES WITH YOU AND STOMPING TO HIS ROOM CRYING - WHATEVER WILL THE BA COMMUNITY DO?

    Yes, he is.

    No, you're not.

    I can't even. This is Stockholm Syndrome stuff, ffs.

    Been watching this thread and I don't like to opine on things when I don't have the facts or they don't effect me however, there are 2 traders involved in this drama, 1 I would be happy to trade with and 1 I would not.

    @SierraNevallagash I hope all works out for you in the end.

    Cheers!

    The OP has spoken to me privately about this matter on a couple of occasions, but pretty much everything he's told me about the background of this trade, eventually made it into this thread. One thing I do want to ask, just to make sure I'm clear on this...

    @SierraNevallagash? The last BM you sent me, it sounded as if you indicated that @bstyle had insisted (via text) that you request this thread be closed down immediately as a pre-condition to him shipping out the box he had for you. In fact, you advised that was the reason for the post you made wherein you tagged several moderators (insisting that the thread should be closed, because your had a tracking number, were getting your box, and all was therefore well). Is that an accurate assessment of what was conveyed to you by @bstyle?

    Thats complete BS if that is what he said. Given he has refused to tell his side of story here,and lets assume facts OP presented accurate facts, this guy should be banned.

    Absolutely not. He never threatened to withhold the box for any reason. That is a serious misunderstanding, and needs to be clarified immediately.

    I know this is probably going to come off as entitled (sorry), but why isn't OP responding to my very direct questions when he claimed to be an open book? Wondering if he blocked me maybe? I'll leave the thread alone if nobody's interested, but I think the things I asked about were also things others were wondering about if anyone wants to copy/paste it?

    Yes, you're right. I am not withholding any pertinent information that will have any real effect on this thread, however, there are points that I will address when this is officially resolved, which looks to be on track for Friday. Please understand that I have divulged all the key details to this, and I will tie up any loose ends. In the mean time, yeah, I said some things that I shouldn't have said. I am fully aware of that.

    I don't have you blocked. I didn't appreciate your first comment in this thread, but I certainly didn't block you over one douchey remark. I just got back from voting, and have only just returned to this. Let me see what it was you asked. Hold on.

    1. I have never been in a position like this before. I handled this extremely poorly, and I acknowledge that 100%.
    2. The trader was extremely upset with being tagged here. I had to deal with that head on, and in the moment, it was very overwhelming. I shouldn't have asked anyone not to say anything, but I was trying to take down the heat so that I could communicate directly with the trader, and hopefully discuss the situation rationally. For every tag the trader got, I had to deal with it privately, and it was horrible to be in that position. The main repercussion at the moment was taking the brunt of the trader's frustration. That's what I brought upon myself by starting this thread though, so I shouldn't have complained. That's my bad.

    3. Well, yes. I do believe that was covered. And no, I have received only 1 tracking number, which is currently active as of today, and on the move. I am not going to publicly divulge details of the conversation, but it ultimately led to what I said when I updated the thread. I think I have addressed most everything that I'm able to right now, but once this is fully resolved, I will clear the air the best I can. In the mean time, I'm just trying to walk on eggshells here. I've done enough damage to myself already.
