    tl;dr - I've been trying to get him (@HeadyHops81 ) to come through on his end of the trade for almost 3 months now. No response or a simple response saying he will ship soon. Says life sucks for him right now, but hasn't taken any steps at all to convince me he still plans to ship. I give up.

    I sent him about $40 in locals + a bunch of decent extras with the expectation of a few bottles of Le Terroir. Nothing particularly rare from me, but all tasty beers. I'm putting that on my taxes as a charitable donation.

    This is my first properly bad trade. Faith in humanity: shaken.

    Sucks to be in your position. How are you communicating with him? He hasn't been on here in months.

    He gave his phone number at the start of the trade, so I've been texting him.

    @HeadyHops81 - any chance you want to come through with what you owe me? After 5 months without logging in, I see you have been active for the past few days.

    Not to worry, beer karma more than made up for this in subsequent trades. I'm only here now to get the word out on this guy and make sure that he knows that he is no longer a welcome part of this trading community.

    Post his number on Craigslist under Casual Encounters. Maybe the pics and texts he'll get will cheer him up.

    @HeadyHops81 you are a thief and an asshole. If you send me the beers you agreed to send me more than 5 MONTHS AGO, you will at least no longer be a thief.

    I've gone through the 7 stages of grief....I've circled back around to anger.

    You would think the assistant strength and conditioning coach at Norfolk State University would have some self respect and discipline.

    C'mon Frank, stop being a dick. @HeadyHops81

    Call the school and ask for him by name? I really wouldn't have a problem going that far, or farther, just ask @BrandonOakes

    You don't think that's a lie also?

    And just a casual observation: if someone has been a member for 5 years with almost no activity, and zero trades, that is the classic person to have send first.

    And there is an assistant there with the right first name. Interesting.
