Well I stand corrected. Hats off to Treasure Hunter for going the extra mile here. Even though it was not needed, to actually offer a refund of a sponsor is more than I would expect from any site. I have seen more than one deal go wrong here, so my comments were based on that. Communication and time it takes to ship should have been in the item description. Not professional on the seller's part. Since no name was mentioned, I wont buy from any sponsor on Tnet. I will stick to who I normally deal with. Since we cant post names, I guess everyone reading this will never know who I had good transactions with. Anyone who paypals some one money is just asking for trouble. A postal money order is the best way to send someone you don't know money. For someone to claim there is no problems with sellers on here is a joke. Best look at the forums where folks buy brand new out of the box and the item needs sent back to the factory. Im glad Treasure cleared this up what he will allow, it was a shoddy transaction at best. I understand the restrictions place on military members overseas, and that's no excuse if he took the mans money.
Casa when I said no names it was because it was still early at that time, it had been less than 2 weeks since the deal had gone down, I knew where seller lives and knew regular shipping can take up to a month sometimes. I also knew that seller was honest from past sales and even personal dealings with him.
Mods had not had a chance to get involved yet and do any research. Why should we allow someone's name to be trashed without even knowing what was going on first.
By checking his account I saw he had not been logged on in close to 2 weeks, by searching then doing ip trace on his ips used I saw he was on military base overseas.
I never said we can't post names of people who have done bad deals, it is a case by case scenario based on the situation.
I do not consider this a bad deal, shipping was slow due to where it was shipped from, worst it was was poor communication on sellers part and that could easily be because he is in military overseas and may not have had internet access a couple weeks for some reason.
Yes there are a few bad deals between members but they are rare compared to before site made it CM only for selling or offering trades.
I offered the refund because it was only $50.00 and I knew seller was good for it, I would either get items in question or seller would refund me when he was able to get back on. There are other members here I have got to know that I would have done the same thing for.
