I have helped him out in the past several times and then we finally made a big trade. He received the item I sent probably a month ago. I still have NOTHING.

He won't respond to my pm's anymore or provide me tracking or anything?? I hate to call anyone out and I thought we had a nice enough relationship on the board, but it's proving me wrong.

Does anyone know him well enough to help me out?

The last pm I sent him I begged him for info on the item and said please tell me something and I didn't want to call him out on the board, but he reads it and doesn't respond.

I'm tired of getting fucked

Damn that sucks! You're the nicest dude when it come to toys. You go out of your way to help people find what they want. Hope you get this worked out.

he did this a couple of months ago as i recall, took a while for people to get their stuff too

he doesn't live too far from me, so if he wants to meet me and have me mail the toy to you mark, just let me know.

I waited 3 months for an item from him

be patient, very patient

It was a big stink a few months back with one of his sales and then recently I saw him list a Bemon (I thought oh no here we go again) and was really surprised that thread didn't get flamed. There's no excuse for it. If you want to sell or trade you should be prompt and communicative. Hope it works out for you.

Ed,
Thank you very much for this offer!! I will pm it to him and see if he replies.

oh and thank you for the info also. I guess I need to be more aware

Thank you, Mark

Same for me here...
I'm on deal with Andrew since beginning of May,he have make a reply at my last pm 2 months ago and said the package has been sent but still nothing

I had an issue with him sending a KVP in late 2008/early 2009, but eventually got it. Terrible communication but the item eventually arrived around 2 months after I paid for it.

He's on the Skullbrain group on Facebook by the same name. Try hitting him up on there. Maybe he checks that more frequent?

he's reading my messages, just stopped responding to them.....

Sorry to hear this Mark, really sucks especially to such a great board member.

Somebody cheer him up with a Mibora from the Rotofugi show(and/or a crouching zag).

Had a transaction w/ him mid-Nov w/ no problems. Sucks he won't get back to you, but he's been around for awhile, so hopefully it will work out.

Anyone know if this is the same guy who sells "customs" and mismatched Balzac figures on ebay?
I think that guy has skelly in his name which i always confuse with selekta.

I'm going to say this for whatever it's worth, Andrew has always been a very stand up guy on. He's never done me wrong and has always been good with getting stuff to me, even if it takes a little while.

thanks Hank
my slow respond has been lack of internet
yah i do check facebook more offend as it works on my phone better
never out to scam anyone on this board
i am very slow very slow shipper with work and life etc
mark i just got around to reading your messages and responding

Thank you for letting me know you still haven't shipped him yet (?)

I anxiously await tracking information tomorrow!!

I'm sorry, but I really don't understand how you haven't shipped yet??

what?? fuck that.

Everyone is busy. I hate reading this excuse.

You make time for what's important, which includes not dicking around people who put their faith in you.

True that . . . if you have time to sell it, you have time to pack and ship it!

I will never understand how keeping buyers/traders in the dark, making people think they got fucked over, and shipping things 2-3 months late makes somebody a "stand up guy" or isn't "doing people wrong." Those ideals are as outta-whack as the guy who's "too busy living" to hold up his end of a deal after receiving somebody's money/toy.

I thought that by now people weren't buying from / trading with him due to the multiple fires that took months to put out in the BST. Sorry that it's continuing to happen, and to good people probably touting heavy trade bait (not that newer members deserve run-arounds any more than others). Hopefully his communication skills will improve in the future, or he starts offering his phone number instead of e-communication.

Seriously who doesn't have internet access anymore? Even if you don't pay your bill, it takes months to lose it , and even if you did you somehow have time to list a sale or trade? That excuse really doesn't go far. Secondly taking that long to ship is uncalled for. We all know how I feel about lazy shippers, but a trade is even more an issue of trust than a sale. At least with a sale you can file a claim with paypal to attempt to recover your loss, but with a trade the other party is definitely assed out if you decide not to ship. That's just wrong anyway you slice it. Don't be that guy- send the item.

I'm not going to attempt to delve into what you have going on in your life, or try judge you, but seriously man if you got problems right now maybe selling and trading here should not happen till you get it straightened out?

I hate people like this.I hope you guys that are waiting didn't gift your payment.That's something else that should be stopped on this board.Raise your price a couple bucks to cover costs.

I leave that option open. I say if you reeeeeeeeeeeally trust the person and they ask gift, no big issue. I'd not think twice about sending payment as gift to guys like Muton or livingdead or a few others. But I also understand someone being weird about it, so I always say "this much gifted or a little more not gifted." and it's up to them.

Yeah, I definitely don't ask for gifted payments, but I often receive them. Oh the bonus of being friends; or at least acquaintances; and not a super cheap money-monger.

If you're cool with having zero options should the seller decide not to send you anything, gift payments are great...

...for the seller, because they don't have to pay fees!
