How long would you wait.......

How long would you wait for a trade from some one before you gave them the ole' Bad traders list space.

I've waited for more then a year for a trade
and it really does not look like its going to happen.

Not wanting to put myself or the other person
in a bad light I've held back on posting anything.

Well I would say something, that way this wouldn't happen to another board member. I mean.... over a year! [img]eek.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/hmmm.gif[/img]

Damn !! I thought this was going to be a question about a shelf !! [img]tongue.gif[/img]

That was what I traded with.

If any way someone would feel that I've under or over traded them. They should say so. I would make
all most anything right if I could.

But in all the people I've traded with most have said that they are more then happy. So either
they are... or thay dont want to hurt my feelings.
I'd rather have them as happy as I would be to make the trade.

30 days is what I would wait. In that time the deal should be completed.

A YEAR?? Sorry but IMHO it's time to say something! I've never had a trade go more than 2 weeks before myself and the other person had the figure in hand. I may actually have one go a tad longer for the first time now, since I had to order the item I'm trading and I have to ship it to Canada when I get it. But to be honest, I'll be surprised if it does. I always ship within 2 days of a trade if I have the item in hand though. A year is insane! [img]graemlins/thumbs_down.gif[/img]

A year is more than generous when giving someone the benefit of the doubt. I can understand a lot of shit can happen in someone's life to keep them from going through with a trade, but a year is ridiculous.

If the person doesn't respond to e-mails or have any plans of completing the transaction, definitely put them on the bad trader list, that way others won't deal with them.

It's a shame board members do this to each other, and it's the kind of thing that makes me hesitant to deal with people online at all.

You've got the patience of a saint, Burke-S, and you're a better person than I am... this person would've been publicly embarassed months ago if I was in your situation.
