I’ve always been weary about buying/selling things over the internet. :/

Um, sorry about that, Storm, that guy was a loser!! Are you going to trust me because of that, or should I not bother waiting for the Tik N Tak + Lambretta CDs??
Let me know, and if not, I’ll understand...

Stormkeeper many people do not get the fact that they might need you again later. They misuse and do bad things like what the guy had done to you. That is very sad. At least you got your lesson eh ;)

@storm: never send anything until you’ve recived the cash for it, not everyone is honest. ;P
powerpoplarry said on June 23, 2003 17:14:
Then again, if someone sends the cash, he/she may not receive the item that was paid for either. It goes both ways...

i had this problem to in may this guy said that he had a rare copy of a look sharp picture disc so we talked over the price and he seemed ok so i sent the money and guess what i got nothing back in return and he still doesnt responde to my emails so yes we get burnd we learn a lesson but maybe trusting people is a human fault but you have to trust some people in your life not everyone is the same . so watch out for this person *[email protected]

thanks for your sympathy guys ;) It´s a cold world!!
“let’s see what that V.... guy say about this”
Aaso: he propably says nothing, he´s hiding behind his computer and laughs his ass off for being such smart.

Hmmm .... does this person still post on TDR?
I have also learnt you cant trust anyone ..especialy flatmates!
powerpoplarry said on June 25, 2003 03:54:
Um, I haven’t see him post in months!!!!! Wonder why...
Yeah, when me + my 2 flatmates lost our apartment, I never got my numerous CDs back (lost about 5, never were returned), PLUS one of them took my VCR!!! However, I got his guitar, a generic black electric one. It needs some work, but still, even trade I think, he just abandoned it, left it behind.

Storm, don’t hold grudges, you have had a bad experience with this person. I sell via the internet (and before anyone asks no Roxette stuff at present!) better to use eBay for buying and selling.
Vixzter said on June 28, 2003 19:33:
@lost: yup ebay is good, coz if someone messes you about you can alwys leave bad/neutral feedback :)
i_jera said on February 5, 2004 09:20:
Probably because they want to get their stuff without giving anything in return?! Not the first, nor the last one...
I have a suggestion - When you trade with someone and everything wents fine, post in his/her thread (the one he/she made for his/her offer) some positive feedback. And if something messes up or someone cheats you, post a new thread to warn everyone (because not everyone will notice your message in a topic from weeks ago... On the other side, new thread for every successfull deal would flood the board)
purplemedusa said on February 6, 2004 18:49:
U know Stormy... i think that there is way more to this story than meets the eye (like i’ve posted ages ago)... there was a particularly strong bond between the 2 of us - chatted on a daily bases - and then he just dissapeared. I’m sorry for your loss, though... but in this case no one could have predicted it.
harriej said on February 6, 2004 22:59:
If it is somebody who posts here it is ok to give his full (nick)name, so we know we have to watch out dealing with this person.
Now I suspect every person who’s name is starting with a V..
So, who is it?
i_jera said on February 6, 2004 23:38:
Vaxjoe.
(right?)
Now shoot me, whoever’s there to stand for him.
purplemedusa said on February 7, 2004 05:12:
As much as I love(d?) the boy, I’m sorry give some sort of explination!
Stormkeeper said on February 7, 2004 09:40:
Yes, Vaxjoe.
medusa: you shouldn´t make excuses for him. He didn´t disappear anywhere actually. He´s not good person. He´s selfish and thinks he´s better/better-looking/smarter than other ones. Face it.
Aaso said on March 10, 2004 12:54:
Maybe he is still replying under another name! But I like(d) him!
Stormkeeper said on March 21, 2004 19:06:
I´m giving you an serious advice: do NOT deal with people you don´t know personally.
Kattunge said on March 25, 2004 08:30:
I want to apologize the person I mentioned earlier .
He answered me now.
He couldn´t send me the tapes earlier, but he didn´t cheat me. He ´ll send the tapes now.
I missunderstood the situation, because I ´ve send my tapes in december and I haven´t got them yet.
But everybody can be busy.
I am very sorry.

Some months ago I dealed with someone; I bought a CD and sent it to a very well-known TDR guy called V..... because he couldn´t find that album over there where he lives and I wanted to help him.
What happened? He cheated me.
He never sent me the money he promised and now he OF COURSE does not reply e-mails anymore etc.
I got my lesson I think :)
