Have never really had an issue with a Bartertown trader/buyer/seller until now. This fellow, Thomas, contacted me concerning items I had posted for sale and we agreed on a deal (not a real big one either). Then he starts a series of email questions that appeared to me to be attempts at getting reduced prices. Finally, I said, if there is an issue let me know now and we'll nix the deal. He comes back with some line about how he sometimes forgets to ask all the questions he should ask, and he feels that he would have to spend too much for crews if he had to buy them for the vehicles he wanted (note: the items were already individually wrapped, packaged, and ready to ship, so when he finally asked about crews I said there were some but couldn't remember exactly what in each vehicle... turns out that later when I unwrapped the items for resale, each one was fully crewed!). In the end, I asked Thomas aka tsttroops to, please, not respond to any of my future postings.
Anyway, today I notice this guy has the audacity to state...
"If you are one who likes to " Crawfish " or " Backs Out " on deals , I will post you as such from now on !" on his postings.
Beware, you are in for a headache if you deal with this fellow.

Re: beware of tstroops
Hey Bill,
You need to do two things:
1. Read the rules for posting in this forum.
2. Follow those rules.
Otherwise, even if tstroops is in the wrong here, it' could be you who gets the vacation....

I am always in the market for weird and wonderful GW oddbitz and ephemera. PM me if you have something old/weird/rare.
