 Can Anyone Vouch for Flatline?
I made a sizable trade with Flatline over 14 days ago....He verified that he received my package and has made me two promises to have my package mailed but I have yet to receive it.
I tried contacting him this past Tuesday to let him know I still hadn't received my package but he did not respond back to my PM. I then contacted him on Thursday (not so nice message) demanding that he have my package mailed out to me to be received this coming Wednesday so I can get it before I leave on vacation but have not been PM'd with tracking number that had been requested so assume I will not be getting it on Wednesday as well.
I hate to have to call this out but I have not dealt directly with Flatline prior to this trade and I am currently out some expensive figures.
When someone promises to do something I expect that it will be done with an understand that things do happen.....but not to update me (twice) or read my PM without responding....I get a tad bit concerned that the person is not on the up and up....and worst of all knowing that he did receive my package and it was sent on the agreed on timeframe.
Also, he has not posted anything after making the GID Maza and my trade but had been very active everyday prior....but is still checking pm's.
Can anyone vouch for Flatline? Is anyone else still waiting for items from him as well that they may have purchased or traded?

I had to open a paypal dispute before I got a reply from him.

Sorry to hear he still hasn't replied. Knew the guy was off. Hope this works out or else put him on blast. marswillrule wrote: I had to open a paypal dispute before I got a reply from him. Did he settle after that?

 Re: Can Anyone Vouch for Flatline?
Just to weigh in, Flatline was never a "bad" member, in the sense that he never "wronged" me. However, I will say, his communication is less than acceptable. On two occasions, I exchanged time-essential PMs with him, and expected to hear back within hours--or at least one day. Both times it took four to five days for a response.

That is what I am hoping the issue is - He just pm'd me to LMK he mailed out the package but no tracking # was given at this time....I will keep atease updated as to when I get package so that he can remove post from message board

Who was the board member who got caught with three board identities after accidentally bumping his sales thread using the incorrect id, then claimed all his room mates used the same IP address?

 Re: Can Anyone Vouch for Flatline?
Please say this isn't true. I just made a sizable trade and traded away a handful of great realxhead figures to flatline just the other day.
I am giving him the benefit of the doubt and am waiting to hear from him in regards to the shipment he was/is sending me.
This better not be true.

 Re: Can Anyone Vouch for Flatline?
Update: Just got an email that my package has been sent. I too am going on vacation Wed but i let my recpetionist know to tell me when the package arrives. I will keep you all updated on the progress and I hope everyone waiting on something gets their stuff as well.
Again, let's give him the benefit of the doubt. His communication with me has been quite friendly and up till this thread, he seemed/seems like a stand up guy.
Hope I'm not being to naive.

Hope I'm not being to naive. What did you trade for?? I hope not the Maza! Because he traded that to me. Of course it hasn't arrived yet, but he claims he sent it. I didn't get a warm feeling from his pm's so I admit I didn't send his package off yet, but if he trade you the GID Maza there is a real problem here. Just saying. I of course am giving the benefit of doubt until I'm lead otherwise.

 Re: Can Anyone Vouch for Flatline?
Never had any problems from the Flatliner, myself. I know I've done at least 1-2 deals with him.

 Re: Can Anyone Vouch for Flatline?
If Shaun is screwing me over (and all the others that trusted him) which I have no choice to believe since he is ignoring my request for the tracking number and the date he said I would get my package has come and gone (third promise broken).
If Shaun has screwed several people out of high end and rare figures then I wish he had the balls to state right up front that he screwed us instead of having me and the others wonder when our package will be received.
If Shaun is truly is an honest and trustworthy person and wants to set everyone's mind at ease I would love for him to either post all the tracking numbers with zip codes of all packages he supposedly mailed out on this post or start a new one (No need to explain why it took you so long to send them)...if not, then post that you just screwed us all over and get it over with....but either way give us all an honest response, we deserve at least that much.
