    I sent my box out on our agreed ship day and he has received my box a couple days later. I have yet to receive a tracking number from babakshirdel and he has promised that he would get the box out 3 separate times. I did some research with help from another BA, Morningstorm and found out that he has been late and delayed shipping with several other traders who have had to threaten with a bad trader thread like this in order to get there beer. I also messaged a previous trader that he has positive feedback from, urielxvi to get some further insight.

    If anyone has any info on this guy that would be much appreciated… but for everyone else out there be on the lookout as trading with this guy is becoming a nightmare.

    Thanks for the help,
    -Jon

    I don't seek out many trades anymore, and those I do are with past trade partners. I hate these posts pop up, the trade forum is here for a reason, if there is even the slightest doubt they ship first. Hate to say it but you should have done more research, and this could have been avoided, but that doesn't let this guy off the hook either, he should communicate properly and ship your stuff.

    Is there an "official" pending trade between you 2?

    This is becoming ridiculous. We should have an entire separate forum for bad/questionable traders since it seems to be almost every other day. That and a "what is the value of..." forum.

    Hey never accepted the trade request I sent him... I guess that should of been a sign there but it has never been a problem in the past. I sent his box out on Tuesday and it arrived this Thursday. Ever since my box arrived he has stopped all communication.

    If a guy does not accept the trade request, you dont send him his box....Unfortunately, this is now a must

    hate to say it, but use the damned feature. that's what it's there for.

    I'm on 3rd, 4th, 5th trades with buddies and we STILL use the trade feature.

    I mimic @cavedave in saying how there's nothing quite like a bad trader thread to get someone to drop a Jackson at their local FedEx and fulfill their obligation. Yeesh.

    Besides number 4, I feel a page with these requirements should pop up every time you press the "New Thread" button in ISO:FT. @F2brewers thoughts?

    Post it in the "Help and Feedback" forum. :slight_smile:

    No matter what we do, people need to take responsibility for their trades. You can lead the horse to the keg, but you can't make him drink from it.

    As has been noted elsewhere, what you don't see are the hundreds of successful trades that happen every week. The bad traders brought to light in these threads represent a very tiny portion of the total trading activity.

    It's no different than looking up reviews online for a company or product. The ones that are satisfied are extremely unlikely to take the time and post positive feedback. It's the ones who maybe didn't get what was advertised who post negative reviews as they hope to get something in return or changed by doing so.
