    So coined are you going to do the right thing and hand back the bar to nullify the trade in return for the coin?

    yes who is this guy? I think it is only responsible for members to watch out for each other by either leaving a neg. or outing the neg. member to inform others.

    Amazing that the truth now starts to come out on SS :( Lots of members are getting completely shafted, and they choose to remain silent, in order that their attacker can continue to prey on further innocent SS victims.

    Wow. Thanks guys. You're doing SS a real big favour by ensuring that these people remain unidentified (via HONEST, negative feedback) to the larger SS forum. Look out guys, there are some real ripoff artists around, who will sell you complete sh*t, and all the victims are keeping silent, except perhaps for telling a few guys in person when they meet together on the weekend.

    Hi Adrenalin,

    You will contribute greatly to making this Forum a safer and happier place by leaving appropriate feedback for the seller you have mentioned.

    Along with the Feedback could you please PM me the name if you are unwilling to name them publicly.

    Many thanks.

    Is it at all possible to separate the feedback under peoples avatar/details so we can see positive/negative trades?

    Honestly, I look at the number, and if I see 40 or something I'll not even click on through... lol

    this thread will definitely make me more cautious and stick to doing business with members who I have traded with before.

    I think there's another angle to this... What about doing business with SS who consciously endanger other SS, by refraining from giving honest, negative feed-back? Its takes two to tango, and all we get to hear from some SS, is that there is evil lurking in the darkness, but these guys refuse to tell us who. Reminds us of priests who see no evil, and allow it to continue endlessly.

    The car salesman :lol:
    Yeah I gave him a public bollocking on here a while ago :D
    I can't give him a neg on here
    But I can refresh people's minds
    I purchased 2 x 1/4 oz gold slabbed Unicorns
    I got home & did some research on them & they looked like a fake version
    I walk into Unico to ask Scotty to test them for me ,without telling him what I thought I had
    Silver & gold plated
    Walk back into the fat wogs & he tells me Scotty don't know shit :lol::lol:
    It took him 15min to turn his XRF machine on to test them ,& another 15 min to get my $ back
    And his wandering why none of the regulars go there any more :rolleyes:
    And he black banned a certain person for low balling him on eBay :(
    Oooh the poor bastard got some of his own medicine back :lol:

    The transaction was fine with this person but conduct after was a bit sly so feedback does not apply. No danger to anyone else just prefer not to deal with again out of principle.

    Taking a step back ... Dont you think it might just be better to tag along to a proper stacker meet-up.

    Happening in most states. Out-of-towners and interstaters are frequently found mixing with the locals.

    Good suggestion. However, its unfortunate that stackers (except for Spannermonkey) do not want to leave honest feedback on their trades - when those trades have turned out to be negative. In a proper stacker meet-up, once you have gained the confidence of others, perhaps they may let you in on the secret of which stackers are ripping other stackers off. Probably won't get anyone to confide in you on your first stacker meet, possibly it may take months. In the meantime, the vicious sharks - who have only positive feedback (because no negatives are posted) - are manhandling their next victim.

    Attending a stacker meetup sounds like the way to go. :) Sorry for those unable to attend, but someone has got to be the chum (ie: shark feed), I guess.
