No. But I've been waiting 5 months on a trade and am still holding out. Gotta have faith!

Hey guys, we need to discuss Credit References in PM's or emails. But, let me know how the trade comes out and if he needs to get added to my list. I've got a new name that will be added shortly if I don't see a bow in the mail soon.

What would the best course of action be if a trade is not fulfilled?

Seems to me it would be better to get it out in the open. Let people know what they are in for, or at least let people tell their side of the story and not have it a one sided affair.

We can't allow that on the open forum. All trades are between the ones making the trade. PA has nothing to do with the trades and is not responsible for them or the traders. It's up to you to decide if someone is a reliable trader. We've added the "Good Dealings" section to let folks know who has been reliable in past trades. If you feel someone has taken advantage of you contact Eddie(Mullet) so he can enter the name in his book. If you have questions about trading with someone Eddie can tell you if they are on his list or not.

Cant mention names, but this guy has done nothing but beg since he signed up a year ago. Zero contributions otherwise. I'm sure most can come up with a name. Stay away from him.

I sent out some cane to a guy in Florida he was supposed to send me some feathers...... Well that was back in February and I have never received any feathers! Went to send him another pm today and I can't. I see his name still there and his messages but I can't respond to him. I think I sent the message to someone else. Sorry about that. Anyhow I'm out some cane and postage and got nothing. Well I done my part and held up to my part of the trade so you live and learn. Guess there is going to be bad apples everywhere you go. That just sucks for mankind!

I've got some extra feathers rough cut to about 5".  Turkey season isn't to far away so I'll be getting more soon.  PM me your address and I'll get some headed your way.

Same kid screwed you that screwed Doobs, Scott. He is gone now, so don't plan on getting anything but do plan on nobody else getting screwed by him. Sad part is he hid behind religion and church groups, that really gets me fired up.

Clint the stud will do you right.

Yah I did think I was going to get anything in return after I sent him like 3 messages and he didn't answer the last one. Oh well you live and learn this one he will have to answer for in the long run.

Oddly enough when I threatened him via PM, he didn't reply to me. But he did cancel his account I'm told. That's good, we don't need any losers on this site. We can all disagree and bicker our opinions all we want, but thievery is another thing.

It was worth a small loss to me to have a liar gone from the site. I did at roughly the same time have some great trades with a couple of other new guys, so 2 good and 1 that will have to live with his lack of self respect and integrity. Not bad overall.  ;D

Honesty and integrity of the members on here is what makes it work as far as I'm concerned.

Thanks to you all.
