Why do people come her and scam others out of their hardearned money? I am venting on behalf of someone else..not me..but am sick of seeing this. We need to come up with a rule or something that if someone is in ANY disputes over anything with anyone else here on THIS board., that until its resolved in an agreeable manner..they SHOULD NOT be allowed to post any other items for sale or trade of ANY sort!!! Maybe this would help eliminate some of this trashy dealings!!!!

I am going to make this a poll..see how many agree we need a rule to the effect of what I mentioned above. So if you are one of the fed up ones vote!!!

I say make it a rule. We dont need someone who is disputing something selling more stuff that could screw others out of the merchandise.

Or, instead of a new rule that we would have to watch over everyone, to make sure they followed, we could do away with the whole fsot area. :) That would wipe out any scamming.

We have always said, buying or selling here is at your own risk. We do not get involved, because disputes in this area will always be "he said, she said". What I do find interesting, is everyone is quick to post in vent, or OT, or anywhere except the feedback area. If people are continually scamming, get the negative feedback down, so others see it. The less people that trade with the person, the less there are to scam and eventually the person will move on. It's amazing how many threads I see in this area, yet when I go to feedback, there is not a word mentioned in the person's thread.

I'm wondering why once it is well known that someone is a scammer, why they aren't banned from the board. Obviously they could get a new email address and join again, but once that's known, ban that email address also.

What happens when you leave feedback for someone, her thread gets deleted from the boards, and then she returns after a very long absence? LOL Too bad I can't leave her negative feedback again just because I no longer have the information to back up my claims. Hopefully she has turned a new leaf.

This whole banning thing is fine and dandy, but who is going to be judge and jury and decide who is right or wrong? Sure isn't going to be me.

Like Katt said, trading here is AYOR, we've put rules in place a feedback system and a bad traders list. Things are going to happen that we have no control over.

how about making a rule with yourself as a buyer and do not buy from someone with little or no feedback and who hasn't been registered here for over a certain amount of time. i think people who come here trying to sell stuff should FIRST establish feedback by being a buyer of atleast a few transactions.

One instance..a person here with great feedback BUT is a scammer. Buys stuff claims they never get it.It just happens more then once or twice with this person.

Not sure why no negative left,but the fight is posted in other threads claiming to be the victim..even with proof.

I go into the trader feedback forum a lot just to see if there have been any complaints and I haven't seen any for a long time but I've seen several posts in vent/whine and off topic chat about bad traders. Maybe some people are just afraid to leave bad feedback. :confused:

That is exactly what I am saying. It is the buyers and sellers responsibility to protect THEMSELVES. I'm not putting new rules in place because to be honest, there is already a lot of rules that probably need to go. Actually, there already is a rule in place...Trading here is at your own risk. As for someone not having feedback here..or it gets deleted etc, before you trade, ask for the person to provide feedback links to other boards, ebay. Anything to prove they are who they say they are, and are honest. It's up to those using the fsot board to make it safe for themselves.

We don't get involved, because like I said before, it will always be one word against anothers.

Doesn't help when people don't bother to leave feedback, which the members asked for a forum specifically for. But, again, that's on the buyers and sellers. I'm sorry guys, new rules won't help. There is nothing to stop people from whining that we banned the wrong person, here's the proof, blah blah.

The only thing to truly protect members from people selling or buying and not holding up to their end, is to not allow it here at all. I don't think that's what everyone wants though.

I happen to agree with Katt. And the two options you provided do not give me an option I want. Just because I don't like the first choice doesn't mean that I'm a scammer. I don't even trade on the board...never have. (Well...I was a secret pal many many years ago and remain friends with that person to this day.) Any FSOT on-line should always be approached as suspect and a potential risk. That is just common sense. I'm sorry for people who have been scammed, but "let the buyer beware" is centuries old advice which is still good today.

I have gotten scammed a couple of times in the FSOT. For this reason I only buy from members that I know. If a newbie post something for sale, I will NOT buy from them no matter how good a deal. The only person that was kind of new that I bought from had feedback and since I wasn't spending too much money I decided to buy from him. Otherwise, only those that I know and trust. And you guys know who you are...lol.:D

Is delivery confirmation being used? It's pretty hard to dispute that it's been delivered if it says DELIVERED.
(I know there are times when it's delivered and stolen or when the DC isn't updated, but it's better to have some protection instead of none)

DAVESBABYDOLL
03-28-2007, 09:55 AM
Yes, there was proof beyond proof but still said it wasn't delivered. (this didn't happen to me, was another board member) There is just TOO many packages not being received by this trader.

that would be highly suspect then if delivery confirmation was being used and they kept saying they didn't get the pkg. would you pm who this is so i don't deal with them please?

What DBD is referring to is NOT this transaction. I had a trade with "EARNHARDT1" and she is not providing ANY proof that the package was ever mailed..NONE...and this was for jump ropes etc for my new foster children. 10.00 exactly.

IF DBD is stupid enough to refer to ME as the one who keeps NOT receiving packages she can shut the hell up..lol. I had ONE instance that you are ALL very aware of with the laptop. ONE time where the item was not received before this one. YES they had DC then but NOT NOW and THIS is the transaction that heartlvrs is referring to not one that happened well over a year ago. :rolleyes:

Heartlvrs is just trying to protect ALL of you. Earnhardt1 is a new trader and has high dollar gift cards for sale now. Its just wise to protect yourself. She has posted over and over she is refunding my money but has not done it. Paypal is giving her until April 2 to rule and it WILL be in my favor.

There are a few here who just LOVE to dig up old news (must be a boring life)...I just want what my 3 little ones deserve. These kids have been thru so much and they watched the mail everyday for 3 weeks.

Oh and by the way THANK YOU for keeping this post bumped up...people need to be aware. THANK YOU!!!!!! By the way I totally agree that you can't ban someone for this because of all the he said... she said... but you CAN be aware.

none of this would be happening if you would just use delivery confirmation. please do so in the future, especially if you are selling $$ gift cards. in my opinion, once the dc says delivered...then it's a done deal no matter what they say.

03-29-2007, 05:23 AM
Well this is a perfect example of why the rules won't change....

Theres a trade and the buyer claims that they didn't receive the item and the sellers says they sent it. How are we to know who is telling the truth? You can't tell me to go off the fact that one trader is new and the other is a long time member with lots of feedback. We do get new members who have scammed people, but lets not forget that we have also had long time members with lots of good feedback that have turned and scammed lots of people. So in this case, who is to be banned? Both of them?

I can form my own opinions on who I believe, but thats just for me to make my own personal trading decisions, not to ban someone for it.

Oh boy... if I could ban people on my opinions of them... welll.... LOL

I think if you are selling something, and the person claims to have not recieved it, the seller better be able to come up with some proof of mailing, reciept, or dc#. I save all my reciepts untill the buyer lets me know that they have recieved the package. And on the more expensive items i always use delivery confirmation.
I dont know who this trader is that is scamming but i would like to know. So if theres a scammer out there, dont be shy to name names because the rest of us need to know so we dont get scamed.
I know its not dbackfan, I have had several trades with her over a span of 5 years, i have always recieved her boxes and shes always recieved mine.

too bad there wasnt a way in the feedback section that when their feedback was checked it would somehow show the cummulative negative feedback andpositive feedback like ebay does.........that way one does not have to go through page after page of feedback unless it is 50 / 50 or so. I am of the mind that if it is something expensive then it should not be sold on the net, but face to face. But face to face in the bigger cities can be just like selling on the net.........how many of the local people have you met.............type thing

Since I REALLY want this kept bumped up until I get my paypal ruling on Monday I had a 16 yr old girl who is staying here a week do me a favor last night. She spent over 2 hours reading TWO peoples feedbacks. Mine and the one with over 400 feedback who is running her mouth here. I have well over 700 trades over 6 years and 50 pages of feedback with 4 negatives left and 2 of them very minor. Everyone received their items, there has NEVER been anyone who said they didn't receive something from me and only ONCE where I didn't receive from them before now.

NOW for the one with over 400 feedback and 33 pages? 5 bad trades and 3 are BAD!
I agree lets do the stats like Ebay does and so its easier for people to go back and read the negatives without wading. I was ASTOUNDED when I read some of the negative she has.

Now if its a pissin match people want we can start posting them :p


You know all I wanted was to get the items I paid for from this gal. I think everyone knows that she can't prove she sent them so I am entitled to a refund.

BTW I did NOT start this thread but I will sure as heck keep it bumped until everyone knows that earnhardt1 is a BAD TRADER.

I agree the rating system would be a good idea. I think there should be a rule, If you sell something and the buyer never recieves, and you have no proof of mailing, and refuse to refund the money, You should not be allowed to sell any more items. Regadless of how many feedback you have. If you are not responsible enough to save your mailing reciepts or dc#, then your not responisble enough to be selling.NO EXCUSES, You need proof you shipped (thats how you protect yourself when your selling).

You may want to go and check for yourself about DBD's feedback. I just read through 33 pages and there are only 3 people who left a negative. There are some other posts that correspond to the 3 trades, however there are only 3 transactions total. And I'm sorry, but her positives outweigh those negatives.

Thanks for mentioning a name ;) I think you need to re read though. ;)

Thanks for keeping this bumped too! Its NOT about DBD's feedback though folks, that was mentioned for the rating system that some are asking for. Oh and i TOTALLY agree about positives outweighing negatives thats why I mentioned my 700 plus feedback.

earnhardt1 is the bad trader mentioned in this thread.

I sent both Jon and Brandon a link to the vbulletin page that contains the hack, and asked if it would be possible for Brandon to put it on the board. It will only start once it is put in though, the old feedback won't be on it. Everyone would have to manually go in and leave feedback, with the dates of the transactions etc.

We could actually get rid of the feedback area if we were to get it. Would clear up server space lol ;)

on a side note... since some are hellbent on comparing feedback... its unfortunate that in some cases proper feedback was not left. If it had been I guarantee you that a comparison wouldn't even be an issue.

I was reading the post where Tami is trying to slam you regarding your feedback. Beings that I am anal I started reading your fb, so far Tami has done at least 2 transactions with you. THe one that catches my eye is #231 You sent Tami money yet she was LATE shipping out your stuff. Just thought it was funny she is slamming and she even wrote she was late in shipping. LOL

Unfortunately when things like this happen, it effects everyone.

I won't even begin to speculate on who did what...as perhaps something was lost in the mail? Whatever, doesn't matter, I just know that from reading this thread, I don't and won't purchase anything through this site (or other similar ones) as the buyer really has no recourse.

Sorry if this comment doesn't sit well with the group, I can only be honest in voicing my opinion and by continuously bumping this thread only reinforces a bad taste with this whole process and further deters any desire of even looking at what's for sale or auction from anyone. I'm probably not the only one who is turned off as well, it hurts everyone.

I think the group is smart enough to interpret feedback and as with any transaction, there are always risks. This whole thread has just turned me off to the whole process.:(

I just have to say this.... I don't just look at someones feedback when I trade here. I also look at their behavior here. How they treat others etc. I won't deal with someone who is constantly nasty to people.. I don't care how good their feedback is.

There are a select few that I trade with here and I keep it that way.

A lot of people will probably disagree with this but I would be leary of trading with someone who only posts in the for sale/trade forum. I've bought a few things in the past but I can probably count on one hand how many times I've done that. LOL I would feel better knowing that person is an active member that posts in other forums.

I agree the rating system would be a good idea. I think there should be a rule, If you sell something and the buyer never recieves, and you have no proof of mailing, and refuse to refund the money, You should not be allowed to sell any more items. Regadless of how many feedback you have. If you are not responsible enough to save your mailing reciepts or dc#, then your not responisble enough to be selling.NO EXCUSES, You need proof you shipped (thats how you protect yourself when your selling).

What if the buyer sells you something, you receive it, and it's not in the condition it was supposed to be? Then the buyer returns it and the seller never refunds the money. Sound familiar?

I guess i miss the point here as there are many that trade here and have dealt with 100s that dont have any bad feedback left for them. If one truly made an attempt and righted their wrong trades than the last i knew bbs had an edit button that people can edit their feedback. I think of how many trades are done on here that never get any feedback left for, whether it be good or bad.

You did not offer choices. Basically you told people to agree with your or they are horrible people.

I have a question...I was wondering Earnhardt why it is you said you'd refund dbackfans money if she hadnt been nasty with the feedbacks and such. I cant recall the traders name off-hand but the one who scammed 3 people on the I-Pod, she had a "friend" come on and pretty much say the same thing. "Why should she refund the money now because everyone is being nasty" (she did refund it I remember) but it just doesnt sound right.
You know I have nothing against you, or Dbackfan for that matter, Im just wondering why it is you've taken that stance.

None of this is truly any of my business as I have nothing to lose or gain in this trade. I do not however appreciate you using the term "retarded" it is not only politically incorrect, but it is a very hurtful word especially to those members here that have children with an illness such as this. It really hurts my feelings for one of my dear dear friends here who have a mentally disabled child. Please chose your words, we never know when we say something how it will affect another.

Sure use my word, beings I said it about myself, not about someone I don't even know. Now we can go tit for tat if thats what you choose, I was just trying to make you see where you could have hurt someones feelings, but obviously that doesn't matter. And since you have a special needs child in your care then by all means that gives you the right to call people "retarded" or anything else you so choose. I just pray that the special needs child you have in your care doesn't have to hear you call others names such as "retarded". I can't imagine why you would choose to roll your eyes over me trying to keep someone from hurting another feelings.

Anal is definitely not even close to using the word retarded!

Anal is short for anal retentive which most of us know is when someone is overly obsessive about something to the point of being a PITA. I see where that term could legitimately apply in this thread. Using retarded is not cool.

THe one that catches my eye is #231 You sent Tami money yet she was LATE shipping out your stuff. Just thought it was funny she is slamming and she even wrote she was late in shipping. LOL
Have a good one,

Tami, I GAURANTEE YOU MARY DID NOT PM ME THIS,you would be surprised who did. This person did not call YOU anal but HERSELF. You assume way too much,you know what they say about assumptions..they are the mother of all f@#@ ups...but then ,by your behavior you are the Queen of them :rolleyes:

As a new poster here and as one who used to lurk for quite a bit, thank you all for showing your true colors on this post.

I can see now that this is not a place I want to come to anymore. I can get this kind of entertainment from 3 year olds so I don't have to seek it out here with people your age.

I hope you all get your issues ironed out, but I won't be here to see it.

A lot of times when someone is banned so close to when they joined, it is because they are either a troll, or they are a multiple account for someone already registered on the board. I hate to speculate...but it's probably one of the two.

I have been a member here for a long time, I have successfully buy/selled/traded here at BBF, last month I screwed up. A women bought something for me for $11.50, I received the money from her and sent out the package. I didn't use DC, #1 mistake. It was several weeks and the buyer emailed me, she hadn't received her package, of course....I was at fault, I didn't use DC. I sent her a refund in full, it never got there. By this time, she thought I was a scammer and was VERY upset ((which I understand fully)) I sent a second refund out, used DC this time, and it got there no problems. A week later, my first refund came back, it looked like it had gone thru a hurricane, I had mislabeled it. Moral of the story is, even good people screw up. Sometimes, you need to be a man ((or a woman in my case)) and admit you made a mistake and make it right. I support this rule totally:) I continue to buy/sell/trade here, now I know to be a little more careful, always use DC , it protects yourself and it protects the buyer

I believe that all of the venting and whining about FSOT should stay there. If you are not happy with a trade or deal it should be dealt with there and between the traders involved. This is why they created the feedback forum for FSOT.

As for this poll, I didn't answer either because I don't believe we need a new rule and I am not a scammer. I don't have much feedback on this board even though I have traded with several of you and on multiple occassions. I just don't find it a big deal because as I stated earlier, I am careful about who I deal with. Just like on ebay, I look at someone's feedback before dealing with them and if they have negatives, I usually just pass them by unless there is a plausible excuse.

No ONE calls a special needs child retarded anymore by the way.


i agree with this! can you image your doctor saying, well sorry parents but your child is retarded? and retard refers to many other things beside a person with low intelligence. flame retardant for example...or something that is delayed or slow.

Thats what doctors DO tell parents. Can you imagine being that parent? Not easy to hear the first time and its not easy when your child comes home crying because kids called her retarded at school. I can tell you from personal experience, that hurts the parent WAY more than it hurts the child. They eventually forget, but a mom doesn't ever forget those days. How do you explain to a child that its not a bad word and that other kids are taught by their parents (or guardians) that it is? You can't. Adults use it in a hateful way and their kids are going to use it in a hateful/hurtful way as well.

Retarded and retardant are not the same thing.

OK....I have a question. DBackFan, If Earnhardt were to refund your money and then you recieve the package in the mail, would you then in return refund the money back?? (since you would have the package)

Earnhardt, if you HAVE already mailed the package, then it SHOULD only be a matter of time until DBackFan recieves it. Why not just refund the money, through paypal, then once she recieves the package im quite sure she would return the money. You just said in a previous post that you were going to refund the money but MAIL it?? If the package never came, why would DBackFan believe that the money would come? If its done through paypal then you are "insured" at least where its trackable.

Retarded and retardant are not the same thing.


i'm sorry and i understand how it could be used in a hateful manner but retardant, retard, retarded all mean basically the same thing...To cause to move or proceed slowly; delay or impede. the root word of retardant is retard..."ant" just turns it to an adjective. i can't believe in this day and age that a doctor would use the derogatory meaning when telling a parent that their child has a mental disorder of some sort. i would be so upset if i heard another person...child/adult/even doctor calling a person that who has a real mental disorder.

this really has nothing to do with this thread though and i don't even know why i got myself in it. i'm outta here. i hope the right thing is done.

I know this isn't on the subject of the thread...

Actually "retarded" is also the term that SSI uses. A child is "developmentally disabled" until they reach a certain age (I think its 9) and then it switches over to "mentally retarded" if they are still deemed disabled. Teachers use it.... as long as that is how a child/adult is described officially on paper. You'd be surprised at how many people still call a person "retarded" .... I hate the word myself and I do not allow my kids to say it (for obvious reasons) ... I have typed it more in this thread than I have ever said it out loud in my life lol

And not to split hairs, but it just bugs me... retardant is the cause and retarded is the effect.... they aren't the same thing, but they are in the same family.. I know its petty, but it drives me crazy (I am anal I guess LOL)

OK Right now it is up to you Earnhardt to end this by refunding the money. I personally at this point will not buy anything from you in the future because of how this is being handled. (I am seriously not trying to be mean or anything, please dont read this in a nasty tone because that is not how im trying to write this.) I see that DBackFan bought something from you and correct me if Im wrong, the package didnt get mailed out until like a week or so later, now the package has been lost and you are refusing to refund her money. Why?? You could have just as easily put DC on the package. You are saying that you WOULD have refunded if she hadnt turned nasty about it. Whats the difference?? You have her 10 dollars and she has no merchandise to show for that (yet). I say refund the money right now, DBackFan has enough feedback on here to back up that she would in-return refund the money back once the package is recieved. The only way this is not a good idea is if you actually havent sent the package out.

Im truly not trying to be nasty or anything like that. I just dont want to see two good traders getting screwed over because of negative feelings. Please please please you two, nicely work this out!

DBackFan, Do you promise to refund the money back once you get the package??

I don't understand any of this. Why not give DBackFan her money back? You should have done that as soon as you found out she never got her package and you couldn't prove that you sent it. That's what being a good trader is all about it. If it comes back on you, you make it right. Simple as that. I know you will say you have no proof she didn't get it or whatever but she also has no proof you ever sent it. You should have gotten DC and since you didn't, take this as a lesson learned and get DC on all future trades.

Why can't you send the money through paypal now? Won't the money you deposit be sent to her? If so, what's the problem? That's who you need to refund!

I personally dont see how DBackFan has hurt your feedback reputation. Whats hurt it is you not refunding the money. Why did you let it get to the point where Paypal has to intervene? That speaks volumes about what kind of trader you COULD be.
Now you say that you'll mail her the money. I personally would find that an unnaceptable solution. If the package was mailed and not delivered why would she believe the money would be delivered.
If you wish to trade and sell stuff on this board, why would you not care if anyone respects you? Thats so important if you want to be a part of the Selling. We have different monthly swaps that members could join into, like a kid swap or sock swap (just an example) Its things like that where the respect and good feedback really help.

This will be my last post on this, I did try and help you both figure it out. Im sending my best wishes in working this out. :)

Please don't rely on delivery confirmation so much or any other means of package delivery, whether its USPS, UPS, Fed Ex, etc.. I have seen too much from all of them, work for one of them, and therefore could take niether side because either one has valid issues.

it didnt have to go to paypal but she sent me one message and i was on my honey moon when she did,so she waited 12 hrs and went to paypal so by the time i got a chance to talk to her it was to late i sen ther one message that she took the wrong way and then she went to paypal...

This is a total lie but I too am done posting here. Heartlvers knows I am sending her money for her MS Walk whether you refund my money or not but I was giving you the option to send it to her...like I said it was never the 10 bucks.

Good grief.....:rolleyes: Please refund DBackFan her $$. This is getting really old and I am sure everyone will agree. No more waiting, no more excuses, no more defending yourself, nothing. Save what reputation you have here and DO THE RIGHT THING. You have spent DAYS on end defending yourself, but only making yourself look worse.

This is NOT about who is right or wrong, it's about what is right. We all make mistakes. Thank goodness it was only a $10 mistake. Is it really worth ALL this fighting??????? Only YOU can make it stop.

ok just being a lurker here, both people seem to be reputible. One is claiming not to have gotten a trade. One is claiming to have sent it and it didn't get there. Who says the "right" thing is to believe one over the other. I say if she did send it why does she have to dig into her pockets and give someone money for something that she clearly sent out??? And why do is it automaticly assumed she didn't get it just because she said so? And why would the seller say she would refund the money if she SENT out the card???? If the buyer didn't want insurance it isn't my fault that you didn't get it. It would be your loss...

That goes both ways in my eyes. Why should the person who paid for it be left with nothing in the end and be out that amount of money when the sender cannot provide proof of it being shipped out. See what I'm saying? I am not trying to say who is right or wrong as far as who really done what because I don't know who done what. lol I just think its the senders responsibility to take are of certain things when things go wrong. Thats just my opinion though.

It also really doesn't matter if DC was asked for or not, you should always get it yourself. Just to be safe. :)

Also, PLEASE print out a SCAN form and make sure it's scanned when you bring your package in.
DC only confirms that somethings been delivered. A SCAN form will show that it was accepted by your postal carrier or post office.
If your postal carrier doesn't have his scanner on him, wait until he gets it out of his truck.
May seem like a PITA, but it definitely would've helped in this trade.

That sounds like a great rule when you initially hear it, but just a quick what if...

what if someone has a "personal" problem with someone and just wants to ruin their selling on the boards. I've seen plenty of people go head to head on the off topic boards, etc. and things get past the point of heated or reason. So one of them just hop on over to the fsot boards, make a claim and "poof" instant revenge? With as nasty as i've seen things get on that boards sometimes this IS NOT FAR FETCHED!

Logically speaking if people are getting scammed repeatedly on this board it is due to 1 of 2 reasons...

1) they didn't check the other persons feedback to see if they have neg. feedback or chose to ignor it if they did or
2) if they checked the feedback and there is no neg. the MEMBERS are not doing their job and posting negative feedback.

Either way it's not the boards or mods. problem or fault. Just being quick to "burn people at the stake" because someone makes a claim is NOT the answer and I don't think the mods, etc. have all day to be judge and jury to give people a fair "trial" on EVERY squabble. And just a last thought ....

I THOUGHT WE STILL LIVED IN AMERICA WHERE YOU WERE INNOCENT UNTIL PROVEN GUILTY? not just until someone accused you of something.


EDITED TO ADD:
When I originally wrote this I had only read the 1st page of comments and now that i'm on page 5 feel inclined to add....1) I AM NOT TAKING SIDES...2) ughhhh the pissing matches going on here are perfect examples of what I originally said about things getting "past the point of heated" ...and 3) yes, i have been on the boards for YEARS and YEARS (gosh almost 8 years) and have been scammed and yet I still believe in innocent until proven guilty :) ) Dawn

How can we vote properly when your poll is ridiculous. You give two choices...agree with you or else you must be a scammer. The poll was so ludicrous that I couldn't begin to take it seriously. You are the one who made it a game.

For a poll to be valid it must be balanced and unbiased. Your's was neither. To me, it seemed like you were trying to get a result that supported only your opinions.

And while I agree that scamming is horrible, I don't think your other suggestion was the be-all, end-all solution to the problem. You didn't even give me "other" as an optional response.

Next time you want to do a poll...try drafting it when you aren't angry. And be willing to offer other options, even if they aren't ones you agree with. The true purpose of polls is to get a sense of how people are thinking...not lead them to answer the way you want them to answer.

I've heard of that happening, but I've also heard of the 'alter-ego' being banned and the original member getting a warning. Not speculating....just giving ideas. Who knows.......

This entire thread has been a big laugh--thanks all for the humor. The funniest part is what happens when the table is turned and how some people want things both ways. I have no idea what exactly happened in this case, but it's funny how one of the traders previously bought something from another trader here, the seller bought DC, the item was delivered and the buyer said it never reached her and demanded a refund--and made an fool of herself while doing so. I do love when people show their true colors here, though. It makes you think and it easily makes up your mind about with whom you want to trade.

i know that i would not refund for a person who said they never got the package yet DC showed they did. i'd just have to take the unfair negative feedback. the seller would be out the item and the money and the shipping. NEVER. that would just be too bad for the buyer in that case.

I TOTALLY believe it was her "alter ego" that was banned and leaves you buyers clueless. JMO though...lol


I am SO glad you brought this up though JK :D. Lets re hash the whole incident again and maybe this can stay bumped up to warn traders about earnhardt1 for awhile longer.I was so hoping it wouldn't die. :rolleyes: 23 more pages and you will equal just my good feedback.:p

As for the "item" you are referring to above you of course have the story all wrong, its way worse than that but I will continue to leave you clueless unless others want to keep bumping the post up with details from over a year ago. All I will say is it was not ME who demanded a refund..lmao (just one part of the story you have totally wrong...I could go on..shall I?)

People..if you look back I have not responded until "certain people" had to start their little jabs and pokes that they SOOO love to do. I could friggin care less if I got the 8.44 from the 10 she owed me. I was ready to let it drop and then others jump right in. Does it really matter who is doing the bumpin? The right thing to do would be to close the thread but "like thats gonna happen" :rolleyes: , to many having fun I guess.

how is it she hasnt responded??? 90% of this was her calling me a liar...
anyways i am DONE. arguing with her i'll only talk about happy stuff now lol.. i've got better things to worry about and dont need to get upset by someone who doesnt know jack bout me
