BEWARE => "good_old_bball" !!! HE CHEATED ME !!

[crackberry]

this is terribly sad to read
i have dealt with steve alot and he is flawless. i have also dealt with Mohammad on many occasions and he is equally flawless
well grayson we all know is great. so in terms of member credibilty and integrity there is no doubt in my mind

what's happening is completely out of character for steve. he does tend to go AWOL at times but always comes back with explanations i generally skim over because i am just glad he's back and i miss seeing so many exclamation mark and smiley faces

i really hope steve bounces back on this one, not only for his sake. but also to sort out Mohammad, who unfortunately stands to cop the biggest loss. (and you too grayson since your trust has caused a few bumps for your business)

it's always easy to repeat the should've could've would've mantra. but if you read Mohammad's first post and understand the context of the deal you'll know that you're just being negative and deconstructive

i tried to think up of real solutions, but other than a charity i am as lost as everyone. i would normally say wait and give steve a chance. but knowing you mohammad and reading the timeline i realise that posting this is the last resort and i would have done the same thing

if the brainstrust at admin can come up with solutions that require a helping hand or two i would gladly help as this problem involves 3 people in the community on the top group of my trust list

I've just sent a msg to Steve on Facebook, hope he sees it!

I don't think anyone is saying "calm down" but that (hopefully) Steve has just hit a hurdle and will get it sorted out if any of his previous 600 deals are anything to go by

Very True but I think most would like to think of it in a more positive light.... until we all know what's going on

Unless he is dead, there is no excuse.

yeah same had plenty of deals with steve and always has been a good buyer and seller just a real shame that it has come to this , communication and honesty is the biggest key in this game and its a shame that some people dont have the same beliefs as others , plus i think its mighty rude having the card as your profile pic on facebook , rubbing it in a bit , i believe in karma so justice will be served

is that it ?

 

[anakinleo]

I want that card lol

Me too.... now I have got absolutely no chance of owning that card!!!!

 

[MasterBlaster]

I have that card - as collateral.

I have had it for months and months. I fear that Steven has fallen on bad times, maybe acted out of character or was trying to settle and couldn't.

Not making excuses but he always kept me informed, despite having a managable outstanding balance.

I've made him aware of these accusations and told him that the 'collateral' will be sold.

Given these circumstances Bolli I would offer you first option on the card. I'd give it to you if I could, only it represents a fair amount of lost money for me too Click here to enlarge

Giving credit to people is never a good thing and I am guilty of doing it from time to time but I keep it at a manageable level $30/$50 and the person would need to post up a deal here regarding the due payment date Letting someone bust hundreds of dollars of boxes without paying is just irresponsible of sellers and will always leave the door open to not getting paid at all by the irresponsible buyer with a bigger desire to bust than what they can possibly afford.

And your basing this this on? Terry, Big G said he has had this card for months... Your comment here is a bit out of line isnt it? Maybe a go at your competition? Has nothing to do with this thread.

I hope that Steve, who I have done great deals with, sorts out his side of the situation and life. He has been a great trader and an upfront person in the past. Sometimes people do strange things when in financial straights. Hopefully this will work itself out.

Am i reading this right. The card that Steve agreed to sell to Bolli (that he has paid for) is now actually in the possession of Cherry Collectables......

Which Cherry is holding because he owes cherry money also!!! He has done well out of this one!!

 

[ooneil]

Well - If Bolli bought the card before it was given to Cherry then to me that means Cherry is technically (& unknowingly) in possession of stolen goods which is a criminal offense.

This may turn out to be a massive **** fight guys, especially now if Bolli has put in complaint with the cops and can tell them where the card actually is.

I hope this can all get sorted out before it goes this far.

 

[KB.]

This is a pretty horrible situation. I did a deal with Steve and it went great. He was a nice bloke to deal with too! Hope this gets sorted out.

 

[drob50]

I don't know anyone or anything to do with this. But can I just say that I hope Steve is ok first and foremost????
Money comes and goes, but if there is that many people vouching for him, my first thought is that something has happened and hopefully he is ok.

And the comment about 'unless he is dead, there is no excuse'. Well, you need to take cards a little less seriously. There are many reasons why this could be happening, and over 600 reasons why we shouldn't stone him until he is back!!

Just my opinion.

Its not having a go at anyone Mike, I am merely pointing out a fact that each situation is relevant in this overall outcome regardless of all parties being aware of it. I thought we were all looking at the big picture and I am sure Graham will take my comment for what it is.

 

[BG32]

Cherry has had that card for 6 months or more from my knowledge. I just never knew what members it was. But knew it was given to G to hold for a lot of money owed. I'm sure he can answer this beter.

You know I was always taught what happens when you ASSUME.......You make an ASS out of U and ME.
There's all awful lot of ASSumptions flying around here

It's not entirely about trading cards mate, it is a several thousand dollar transaction that looks to have gone pear shaped!!

And there is NOT ONE good reason as to why someone cant find 20 minutes, or get someone else to go to the post office. NOT ONE.

I'm not sure there are that many assumptions mate...one bloke has lost out bigtime at the moment, that is clear.

From what I can see, he hasn't been on in almost a month and before that he wasn't on for over a month and a half.
