Oh, that would be why then. :lol:
Trading Guidelines:
1. Lower rating ships first - even if I am purchasing.
2. If you agree to buy something, you have 72hrs. in which to pay. If payment is not received in 72hrs., I will automatically post a Non-Payment/Backout thread.
3. Refs are left upon positive receipt of goods, NEVER beforehand!
4. I accept Paypal & USPS money orders and charge for shipping AT COST. I make no profit from it.
5. I trade NIB/new models at retail.

Maybe it'd be better to make some kind of automated form, much like the trade ref form. Even going so far as to reference the persons Inbox- the messages between the offending trader and the person filling the report. That'd make the system easier to use and a LOT less likely to screw up.
Do I owe you a trade ref? Remind me- sometimes I forget!

If you don't have your Location listed, take a second and update it!

-I respond within 48 hours unless utterly incapable. Please do the same. Any offer I make stands for that long as well.
-Lower rating? You ship/pay first. Same goes for me.

'How Much for...?' messages will no longer be replied to at all. I've been nice about it, now I'm done.

I don't even think it's possible to query someone's inbox like that.
mon·ey: noun; a good that acts as a medium of exchange in transactions.
Money is a good like everything else; if your rating is lower, you ship first whether money is involved or not.

Probably not- I really dont know, but I think it'd help immensely if it could be done.

Know what would make the whole process so much easier?

If people actually read (and followed) the rules.


That could work! But its too hard to code in phbb.. ;)
