    @DrippingI
    Trade talk started on October 12 when I responded to his add ISO chocolate rain
    Finalized trade on October 21 for me to send chocolate rain, home sour home, plus something small and extras for dark lord 15, pear bear, foreman coffee, 4 pack pipeworks cans and agreed to ship by Oct 26
    I actually made a special trip to the store for extras for this guy because of his reviews
    I shipped chocolate rain, home sour home, 2 bomber local, 12 oz local, 1 pint glass
    I messaged him that I shipped Oct 26 than message him again he got back on Oct 28 and said he was going to get it out by next weekend and I said fine, that was last I heard from him. I saw him on BA a few times after that.
    The day my box landed Oct 30 I messaged him to confirm and texted him but got no response. I have texted and message him since than but crickets.
    I sent message to people he had traded with and @mrebeka tried to contact him but had no luck

    He has no contact since Oct 28

    Please help to see if we can get this guy to ship, also would not want this to happen to anyone

    Sucks man. Send me a PM if this doesn't get resolved shortly- I can at least replace the pear bear and pipeworks cans for you. It will also give me the chance to pay forward the good beer karma of @Compton25.

    So it's been almost 2 weeks past when you both agreed to ship and 10 days without him responding to you. Maybe something came up and he's already shipped your box out... can't really explain why he can't take 30 secs to text you that back even if something came up. I would send him a couple more messages this week and see what happens... maybe @F2brewers can help you out.

    @DrippingI what's the story man, why have you not responded, and not shipped? You've been on here, and it seems you are ignoring @mhksuccess. If this isn't the case please come and explain yourself, and let's get this settled.

    OP I can't get any of the trade beers, but let me know if you strike out with this, and I would be happy to send you some locals from NY to make up for this mess, just send me your info. Good luck.

    Man, trouble with folks who have good feedback and multiple trades lately, what's up with that?

    While I would never fault someone else for doing otherwise, this is why I'd generally ask anyone with under 10 completed trades, and I'm considering making that number 15 or 20, to ship first.

    Good on you and @Raj for both offering to make it right; I absolutely love that for every one joker out there that does not respect trading, there's two other people who are great advocates and make this community worth being a part of.

    @mhksuccess please do the community a favor, and no matter what the resolution (barring a legitimately good explanation) do not leave positive feedback. Even if this is resolved well and he makes it right, please leave neutral feedback so that others can be warned that things did not go smoothly until there were additional steps taken.

    Complete BS that @DrippingI can't even send a reply to text or private message even if there are issues that prevent shipping when he's obviously been on this site

    Time to sack up @DrippingI. @mhksuccess is a great friend of mine and a really good dude and for you to do this to him is not right. At the least you owe him an explanation and update. For you to go radio silent on October 28th but still have time to be on BA on November 2nd is crap. It takes 30 seconds to type up a message. Make it happen.

    Message has been sent to @mhksuccess. If anyone really wanted to know what happened, message me and I'll tell you. Essentially, I ran late before going out of town, had a friend to ship the package, and he ended up forgetting about it and didnt ship it. I just got the package back today and will be shipping out tomorrow.

    I am obviously going to throw in a shit ton of extras for all the hassle and worry.

    I fully expect to get neutral or negative feedback. I severely fucked up and deserve the consequences of my actions.

    @DrippingI Thank you for showing up here and responding. IMO that goes a long way. Many people don't bother coming here and will either ignore these threads completely, or sometimes just go through PMs. When someone shows up and acknowledges things, I think the community appreciates that gesture. Plus you are already working on a resolution, which is even better.

    Good job by you to man up to a mistake and not play the blame game. IMO you shouldn't receive negative feedback and Neutral is warranted in this situation. It sounds like there's a legit excuse as to why the package was not sent but the Neutral feedback should be because of the lack of communication. Going silent causes a lot of paranoia around here. It sounds like everything would have been fine if you would have responded to his messages and just given some peace of mind but the fact that you understand that and can learn from this mistake will go a long way in maintaining your reputation.

    Well done jumping in here making no excuses and making this right. Not too many of these threads does a response like yours show up and I applaud you for that. Sounds like lesson learned and not to beat a dead horse but communication/follow up is key here. Never too much communication. Cheers to you both.
