    There you are! I created this thread with the sole purpose of getting your attention. :wink:

    Yeah, I see now that it was pretty trivial. Funny thing is that I usually extra like $25-$35 worth of good shit ('wants', 90+ rated beers, etc), I and definitely don't expect the same in return. So I'm not sure why the actual $4$ trade part is so crucial to me. Maybe I like it when it's dead even, and then I'm free to do whatever with extras and whatnot.

    (And by "whatnot," I mean Natalie Portman paraphernalia.)

    Eh, $ amt might be trivial but the lying certainly is problematic. I would have seriously considered bailing as well

    i would say no, not a bad trader as you didn't lose any beer, but anyone who did that to me would instantaneously land on my do not trade list.

    You were right in this case, you didn't even get to exchange addresses. generally I would consider a good to go and a change of addresses to be = to a handshake agreement. But not is this case, not at all given the circumstances.

    I had a similar occurrence where addresses were exchanged and I even went to local brewery to fill request and even $4. Even though the person that put the ISO was from 2011, he only had a few trades under his belt and mentioned numerous times that "Don't worry, I can ship first". I made the mistake of packing the box before 3-4 days of no communication and unanswered bms went by. Luckily I didn't ship as I felt something was off.

    I wouldn't consider these people "bad" traders by any means but more of someone that has less experience and poor communication skills. I have since added him (my first) to my "do not trade list" and I suggest you do the same.
