Wall of Shame
« on: Mon, 16 December 2013, 11:58:53 »
Daniel messaged.

Dear Snoopy,

I'm sorry. I was a jerk, please don't bring it out on the community. I'm just frustrated with what happened with daniel and it sent me over the top. I shouldn't of lashed out at you, you did everything a seller could do.

danielucf - initiated a trade of my pink leaf cc mx for his red alert v1 bro bot. Haven't heard from him in over a week and I sent my cap out 3 weeks ago (he lives in florida mind you, it doesnt take 3 weeks to ship within the state)

snoopy - bought a blue brobot on 10/13. it's 12/16 and I'm waiting on a paypal claim (that should tell you a lot).

60% keyboards, 100% of the time.

I ripped you off? lol... You have tracking code and everything. I opened an inquiry at deutsche post. They're currently searching for that ****ing package. I provided all documents I have to paypal. And you really think I ripped you off and additionally post that public.

Is it really my fault when something gets lost on the way from ger to US?

USPS actually. My parcel didn't even turn up and when I tracked apparently it was sent back to mechkeyboards because I didn't claim it. Wut wut ?
I'm beginning to think those mailman's didn't even try to deliver it in the first place. le sigh. holiday mails, such a bad idea.

To be fair to snoopy we did use paypal which should take care of itself. I don't know what your definition of tracking is but it sitting on preparing for shipment from origin destination for 2 months isn't tracking or any sort of confirmation.

I have had only good experiences trading here.

Personally, I do not hold sellers responsible for shipping problems, particularly if they package the product properly and have documentation of when and where it was shipped.
"It's 110, but it doesn't feel it to me, right. If anybody goes down. Everybody was so worried yesterday about you and they never mentioned me. I'm up here sweating like a dog. They don’t think about me. This is hard work.
Do you feel the breeze? I don't want anybody going on me. We need every voter. I don't care about you. I just want your vote. I don't care."

Yes, they messed it up at a certain point, but that's not my fault. I got all the paper stuff here that confirms that I delivered it to the postoffice and I additionally have all the paperstuff from the currently ongoing inquiry. Can't do anything more. I can't even refund you, cause Paypal locked the money. And I will not send additional money.

But yeah I know, as you wrote on paypal, you blame me that the tracking is fake/invalid or whatever... but won't discuss that anymore.

This can happen a lot with International packages. I think you're being a serious ******* by calling out snoopy's name for tracking problems. He never scammed or ripped you off.

You need to learn some constraint, tormentor. If you ever want to deal on here again, this kind of stuff will definitely discourage people from trading with you.

What is a tracking number that tells you nothing? Invalid would be a appropriate word. I approached you and you asked me to wait even longer when I initially became concerned so I did. At no point in time did you say "I guess it's lost, let me go ahead and claim my insurance and I'll refund you" How was I supposed to know your origin post had failed you if you left me in the dark? The internet is a messed up place where you have to assume the worse and hope for the best.

Doesn't make snoopy a 'scammer' or someone that ripped you off. I have gotten lots of packages from Germany that say the same thing. 'Origin post is preparing shipment' - for 2 months I had to wait for it to show up in the mail. So don't call peoples names out without considering these things first.

Lie, cheat, and steal,  once they've done this enough, they attempt to banish others from pursuing the same route as their own ascension.. they become the country, the become the law.

This ^^ is an incorrect view of liars, cheaters, and thieves...

What else are you supposed to do? Sit back and take it? Hell no. I created a thread a few months back asking what the safest way to trade would be as the current method is EXTREMELY flawed. You know what my responses consisted of? Shame them here so the community knows. I omitted the original post apologizing to Snoopy before anyone else comments on how I wrongly called him/her out.

I think the issue is when people are clearly online posting etc and they ignore users seeking help after a deal has been made.

It might not be dishonest or scamming but it definitely makes a person not want to trade/buy/sell with someone like that.

And if user are like that people should be made aware....

I don't see it as a personal attack to state facts of a trade gone wrong.

The actual sadness comes from the fact that sometimes a public "shaming" is sometimes necessary to open up any communication between the affected parties, e.g. The_Profosist's Phantom assembly/parts GB.

For all your talk about "what's best for community", you seem awful quick to jump on the shame wagon.  Especially for a member with 0 long term issues, but with known issues in getting trades out "promptly". (To clarify, I'm talking about daniel with the last part)
