    Ok, so long story short we had a trade back in April where I sent him a box and he was going to send me something that didn't come out until May. Normally I wouldn't take the leap but we had actually done a trade already, and given it went so well, I trusted him to come through for me. Problem being he hasn't, and instead, has completely vanished.

    Now unlike some other posters this guy isn't still active and isn't still trading but I want to know what happened. If anyone knows him, is still in contact with him, or is in the area and look him up (seriously, I want to make sure he didn't die or something) it would be much appreciated.

    I dont know the guy, but he has a LONG history of successful trades and BIF's, so I'm interested in finding out what happened to him too. Hope everything is OK with him. Let us know if you find anything out.

    Let's alert him to these queries for the next time he logs on...

    @BeerBuddy2122 people are worried about you!

    I traded with him once, I believe his name was mike. I also think I have his phone number. Though I've done a lot of IP trades, so I can't say with 100% confidence that this is the same guy, but I'm pretty sure - if his name is mike them I can be pretty certain. I remember this trade as he seemed like a real good guy and was very generous with extras...I hope all is ok with him, and this gets sorted out. BM me if you want to try to get in contact with him.

    Yup, his name is **********. Sounds like the same guy. BM sent!

    If one of you have his email address, maybe he can be found on Facebook. IP trader can confirm identity (possibly). If so, try to contact some of his friends (one with public profile/wall where you can post messages since private messages will go to "Other" folder).

    if dnb128 doesn't end up having his phone number, let me know. i did one IP trade at his house...things happen though and beer may be the last of his concerns at the moment. i advocate more for just waiting it out some more/writing it off.

    He rated a beer on here yesterday, so he has not vanished.

    While I think @BeerBuddy2122 needs to fulfill his end, the OP left him a negative feedback on 7/10/14. He had a gap in rating beers between 4/27/14 and 7/29/14. It's possible that he was away, came back and saw the negative feedback and decided not to complete his end of the deal.

    I'm not sure my negative feedback has anything to do with it. If he wanted to sort things out he would contact me, figure out how to make it right, and then I'd remove the negative feedback. Saying F' it because it's already bad really isn't a legit option in my book. Also I no idea he had any activity again so this just makes things even worse in my opinion. Come on @BeerBuddy2122 let's figure this out!

    Care to elaborate? I know stuff comes up but it's not ok to leave someone high and dry. If he has a story shoot me the details in a BM. If it sounds legit I'll be more than happy to work with him on how to make it right.

    when you said he isn't still active, I took that to mean he hadn't done anything on BA since April...could be in a coma for all I know.

    Got it. I thought you meant you knew him personally.

    I did an IP with him, but it was quite a while ago. Everything went well, but we haven't kept up so I really don't have much insight.

    No progress I'm afraid. Still haven't heard from him and no answer to our calls.
