dyno-thane300 gets a thumbs down
« on: April 25, 2009, 03:22:16 PM »
Agreed on a trade deal with this guy (George Pierce, Attica, NY), I shipped my ball, he received it but I have not heard from him since. No ball, no nothing.

Looks like I get another total screw job despite his excellent references listed in his profile.

Sorry for the hijack.

I am not surprised. He didn't screw me out of a ball. But, I shipped him two balls like I was supposed too, and after I ship them, he says he cant trade because he is getting liquidated. So, Like 3-4 months go by until I recieve something. And he sent me the wrong ball. So, I was like, Okay, it is a mistake. So, I tell him, and he sends me another ball, and it is the wrong one again. And he NEVER answered any of my messages unless I threatened him with something. So, he didnt screw me out of a ball, just months of time, money for shipping the balls, and freaked my mom out. lol

Sorry for the hijack

Hope he comes around and makes everything right Doug!

Yeah now I am out a Virtual Gravity and have a peaved customer. The trade was to be my Virtual Gravity for his Agent Orange. Well I already had the Agent Orange sold so now my customer is PO'd......


Sucks pretty bad. Seems like I have gotten screwed over a whole lot more within the last 12 months on here than I ever have before.

Doug,
sorry to hijack but I had a deal for the agent orange last week for a cell i had....before I made the deal I checked with D Scott Johnson who lives in the same town and drills some equipment for me about pin location...he told me good luck with this guy because he had completed a 2 for 1 with him months ago where he sent him two balls and he never sent his end out.

Upon questioning him he said he would make good with D Scott so I agreed to trade if he shipped first and he sent me a line back saying no way we have to ship same time because he had a tourney that weekend and if he shot good with the ball he probably wouldnt trade anyways and he also had the audacity to ask for a 2nd ball of mine in return....when I told him it was a no go unless he shipped first he said no thanks anyways and went on to trying to screw someone else im sure.

Sorry to hijack but my original post is gone for some reason so I thought Id let some more people see it here.

Sorry for the "Stiff Job" Doug. I've had 2 deals with him but both were purchases by him. Sent funds then the ball was shipped. This is the reason I don't trade equipment, have done so twice, with people I have had a long standing business relationship. These threads make me very leary of trading, now with the economy being a bum steer, it makes it even more unlikely I'll do so.

He traded both the VG and Agent Orange to me.  Agreed on this about 3 weeks ago, and got them last Wednesday.  Had him ship first because of issues with him prior.

Sorry for your misfortune, and this is probably the last time I'm dealing with him as he is just completely sketchy regardless of the fact that this deal went through rather smoothly.  A day after agreeing upon the trade he sends me a pm asking if i would like him to ship and send a tracking number because he can get it earlier than originally agreed, yet I was away for the weekend.  Only to come in Monday with 4 other PM's saying stuff along the lines of "are we still dealing, i have many others that are interested.... yadda yadda."

So my recommendation is don't trust or even deal with him unless he's send full payment and it clears first or ships and you receive first.

He offered, that same ball to me, and Cooksey.  Nothing solid on either of our parts.  But still getting a ton of offers with that ball.
