Hello,

I know Dakka Dakka isn't a trading site, but since there is a trading section, I think since there is a reputable traders list there should be an (For lack of a better word) poor traders list sticky thread. This doesn't have to be people that just scam you, but people that just back out, or PM you telling you they want it then dont even care to respond with an,"I apologize, I just don't think I'm interested anymore." PM.

This would not be for recovering anything or investigating, just something to tell about your bad experiences with a buyer or seller.

Just my opinion, if its to much work or something is stopping it I completely understand.

They do have a system in place where you create a thread titled Transaction Report- insert person's name here.

Within you describe the dealings and cite information either via PMs or a general description of what went down. You do not give out any personal information, but you tell the community at large what problems you had and if any are still pending.

For your situation it is airing out dirty laundry, but it is your place to post this if you feel others should be warned of further transactions with that person.

And keep personal attacks to yourself. Just the facts.

Where is that thread located?

Or where do you post? Just wondering.

And it goes in the Swap Shop as a regular thread.

Just keep to the guidelines, and just to let you know the person you write it about can respond to it and the moderators can lock it quickly if it gets out of hand.

Alright, will do, I'm not going to post anything yet. I'm giving the person a little time, since I sent out my package and never got one.

Pat that askala, O-H-I hate this stupid state

Two weeks is the general rule of thumb for you to then post up a Transaction Report. Like WarOne said though keep to the facts. He has done several trades and knows what he is doing. I have dealt with him before and knows what he is talking about. If you have issues trading on dakka Bartertown.com has all the things that you were talking about earlier in the thread.

Then it comes to be that the soothing light at the end of your tunnel, its just a freight train coming your way!
