To cut the story short, he posted a trade regarding trading Dreamcast stuffs for a good CD-Rom. I replied. All was done through PMs, as seen below:
He: do you have any other info about the drive. i'm not familiar with prime peripherals...maybe a website or something?
Me: this is it: http://www.afreey.com/product.html
the drive is made by them but the distributer is Prime Peripherials.
Dan
He: what are you interested in for trade for the cd rom?
Me: LOL, you're a joker. u could have checked your history on our previous PMs.
On your thread, you said you had some DC stuffs, so i PMed you i wanted the 2 VMUs FT.
lmk,
Dan
He: joker? shi* i want $50 for two vmus because you like calling people names
Me: Huh? you angry cos of the joke or you mad cos of??
i'm confused with your sentence....
He: oh man i'm sorry i was drunk when i wrote that last night. i only have one vmu left now plus a 3x mem crad and some games. perhaps both the vmu and the mem plus a couple games for the drive?
Me: You're making me laugh again, and i thought you were THAT serious. LOL hahahaha!!!
Sure. Pls confirm asap so i can get myself an old cheapo dirve.
Urmm.. your heatware name is diff from your anandtech name, and i'm cautious and weary in this things. Hope you understand that i'll have to take this basic precautions. Do you mind shipping first, my heatware is under freemanteo
thnks,
Dan
He: i don't mind shipping first, and you can definitely trust me anyway. what exactly do you want in exchange for the drive? I'd like to get this deal banged out tonight so that i can get the driv eout to you tomorrow
thanks
Me: thnks for understanding. I too want to close this deal asap. YOur last PM, you said i could take the VMU, 4x memory card and some games, so pls confirm with me what i'm getting from you.
Thnks,
Dan
He: how does the vmu, 4x memcard and power stone sound?
Me: ok, as long as you're happy.
could i have resident evil cos i have power stone 2 already.
lmk, thnks.
Dan
He: i already got rid of resident evil. maybe i could throw in a few bucks to even it out?
Me: no, i'm not asking for money, just wanted other games that i donot have, how abt the Sega Bass Fishing? is it still available? if not then i'll take the Power Stone.
Will you be sending it out tomm? let me know when you send it out so i'll know when ot expect it, thnks.
oh yeah, is our deal a confirmed deal, if 101% yes, here is my address:
Me: hi max, pls confirm with me if our deal is still on, dun leave me hanging man.
thnks,
Dan
He: okay it's off. i don't think i was getting a fair trade so i'm going to try and find something else to do with the stuff. sorry if i kept you hanging.
Me: no problem, but in your future tradings, pls donot practice this kind of trading habits, in a half-hearted way and slow communications.
THnks for your time,
Dan
He: i will trade as i please. in the future please do not try to rip off people. thank you for your time.
Me: Do as you please, practicing bad trading ethics is bad enough, accusing others is worst, you want money, say so! Good to know this has come to a good ending, now i know who to steer away from.
thnks for showing your true self,
Dan
As you can see, he have all the info on my drive, its only 1-2 weeks old, and confirms and makes me offers. But his communication is slow, after waiting half a day. he finally tells me its off, that does'nt matter but his last reply pisses me off, after giving him some advice, he accuses me of ripping people off! Its how he handled the deal, really shabby, slow in communication and really a spoilt child.
You can never know enough bad traders, everyweek you'll meet at least one... well, their lost, my gain.
THis is a personal principal/feeling, if you donot feel the same, dun blame me.
