owes me 11 discs for over 2 months. The discs he got from me are on his updated web page, and he lists me as a good trader.

once every week or so will offer a different excuse "package is ready to mail, but things in my life prevent me from mailing"

what do you suppose could be such things? Vogons?

I've been in contact with him, he responds to every e-mail I send. He just can't tell me when I'm going to get the 22 dvds that he owes me. But he does promise I will get them.

10 weeks is long enough for me to start this process. I will be happy to unlist him as merely slow if and when I get my cdr's. In the meantime :kat:

another week goes by, no contact, no discs from Alex.....

sure looks like a bad trader to me...... :down:

I hate when shit like this happens! :down:

[ilduclo]

I asked a bunch of people listed on his site as "good traders". About 70 % of them reported problems with him at least slow in response, and a number of them are still owed quite a few dvd's or cdrs (22 cdrs from a couple of folks, 2o from another) .......... so, all folks should be aware that this a POTENTIAL problem with dealing with Alex, so you should at least require him to send his end of your trade and to get it from him first. As per my usual standard, I will continue updating this and will be sure to change my listing on him to "slow trader" if he ever sends me the 11 cdr's he owes me.

my kittie no likee alex

If you still have his address you should take a big dump in a shoe box and mail it to him.Just to let him know you are thinking about him.Tell him you think about him every time you take a shit.

he only got me for 11 cdrs and postage to portugal, so maybe an hour of my time and $10. But there are some people he owes 20+ dvds to, so I'll be keeping him on the bad list to warn other people that he's a theif and a liar

( like that kat icon!)

Id still take a "duster" in a box and mail it to him just to let him know you havent forgotton him.Im sure the others that he has ripped off would appreciate it too. :}

does not reply to e mails, owes others dvd's and cds

[swervncarz]

I was in contact with him for a while, he owes me 22 dvds. He used to respond to my e-mails to tell me that he's having personal problems but that has ended. I thought there was a chance but I've given up on that. Avoid this a**hole.

[swervncarz]

I see he logged onto tapetrader on 11/15, he also removed the link to his website. If he only knew how to e-mail someone maybe we would know what's up.

Its not about the money,or disk.It's the principal.Morals and ethics.My little mantra is to treat people the way Id like to be treated.It's really pretty simple.
I doubt anyone here will trade with him again. {I never have and never will} He has bitten the hand that fed him so to speak.I try and get my end of a trade out with in 24 hours of setting the trade up.Just get it over and done with.Knock on wood,Ive only been scammed once here and overall this is a great community of kind and generous souls.Good luck bro.I hope he reads this and send you your disc's.Also, as a general rule {unless Ive traded with in the past} I dont trade outside of the US or Canada.
