Please stay away from me!

I have had 2 complaints against because they didn't get their shows, I have been in communication with both of them and am working out what went wrong as most of the ppl I trade with know they do get there package from me :thumb: But, I guess being a "big trader" I am bound to have some dissatisfied customers even if I do everything right.

I recieved this "friendly" pm from NewsJunkie:

Quote: Hello, I noticed on 2 Different Forums including vhtrading and metpage that you have not completed 2 Trades and one is a bad trader warning..I suggest you clear things up unless you want to be knwon as a Bad Trader in the Community.

Reguardless what they say, I have responded to both of them and agreed to resend their packages :thumb:

I guess this is just a hazard of trading :(

Sh*t happens. As long as you've worked it out amongst traders you're dealing with, I wouldn't panic.
Good communication keeps most trades running smooth. :)

Well HighWay Boots, i sent that PM as a friendly remonder. If you want to be an Ass about it, go right ahead. You are only making yourself look bad. Another person has posted that they have had problems with you at metpage, just another mistake i guess.

Ill think twice next time before i try and help ya out.

Maybe so, But I don't really care as far as these 2 particular trades are concerned as I have had contact with both and I know I'm in the clear :thumb:

I just don't like to be accused unjustly and after all the problems with metpage, I'm done trading there anyway as I cannot please everyone.

I understand now why you pm'd me but I took it as this:

"Fix this or be damned!"

I guess I was thinking a little harsher than I was supposed to :o

I'm actually glad I posted this because IMO it's better to let everyone know what's being said about me, that way they can decided for themselves if I'm a bad trader or not :thumb: I hold no secrets when it comes to my trading habits :cool:

Well, i like many here have been trading for many many years...and in those years if i send a trade to someone and i get nothing in return......thats a Bad Trade and even possibly a Bad Trader. ..... In your case i sent you that PM to give you a heads up about what was being posted by other respected Traders. I am aware you have completed trades and Tree's. Thats not the issue. The incomplete trades are.....thats all im saying man.

Highway Boots has gone through so much shit on the Motley boards over the "Crue Years Eve" show in Detroit. People would post a new thread every day asking where it is, demanding screenshots, demanding samples, and it's not over, still! How pathetic is that? Now as sad as I would be if this show was never released, I know damn well it's because of those vultures on the Crue boards.

That got way off topic... :eek:

There's a reason why it's called a "private" message. Posting a private message or email without the original sender's consent shows a major lack of netiquette.
