    *sighs* no, I didn't think about that. this isn't eBay, I stupidly thought it was safe to do B*S*T threads. I really hope this is all just a mistake.

    yeah, I think I'm gonna do that, go to paypal

    yeah, nothing against the op/seller. its just that i think his only posts since he joined is to sell his items here. here's hoping that it gets straightened out for you guys.

    I'd really rather not have to settle this through paypal. this is the sorta thing that jades a person on buying stuff from B/S/T threads and not trusting -anyone-

    that's why I sent braveMax a PM. I don't want to think ill of them, but I'm that paranoid naturally x_X

    Yeah, I've had great luck on trade threads all over the net, and have yet to have a sour experience. I'd rather it not start now. Hopefully BraveMax jumps online to clear things up soon.

    Not to bring you guys down.... this happened to me about a year ago.... the guy even showed pics and seemed legit... he sold a lot of toys to members here and then vanished for weeks.. he was then banned from tfw and about two weeks afterwards people started getting their toys except me.. I'm still a bit bitter but its a lesson learned...

    I'm hoping this is a terrible mix up, because if it isn't, I'm out both 100 and the CC armor... and, y;know... bitter and un-trusting of B/S/T threads/forums

    He told me he was gonna ship on Wednesday because he was getting out of work early. I have been trying to pm him since yesterday. No response.

    I talked to another member who paid for a city commander from him and has not received it.

    Wow, guys contact Paypal ASAP!

    the BST forums are awesome normally, people like this need to be prosecuted. I would contact admins and find out if you can get the guys IP address. Hopefully he wasn't using a Proxy.

    Then file a report with your police departments as well. Realistically, I have been taken in the past. The key is to act quick. Don't let this SOB get away with this.

    Also, don't let this site get affected by this either. I have been collecting mainly through the BST forumns, and people like this need to go to jail.

    on the phone right now

    Edit: the police? really. I doubt they'd do anything other than laugh at me and say I should have been more careful or something.

    I just filed a dispute with my credit card because they will handle the situation quicker than paypal will.

    Contact the police and the admins here. Get the IP. If not this f'er will do this again.

    Also, in my experience, paypal cannot do shit. Unless the guy still has funds. Even then you may only get back a percentage.

    I see a lot of you guys have low post counts like myself. I have to say I have had nothing but positive experiences here in my last 3 months, Please don't be discouraged,

    Do you have the correspondance between you and him? If you do, you might be able to start a claim.

    I always keep all communication until I receive the product. Print it out, keep it for your records. Also Paypal is useless.
