The Official and ONLY Place to Discuss Negative Trade Experiences + Trade Blacklist

Thats plausable Jeniana. Were looking into it. BUT the other trader was quite rude to both Holly and I.

I just don't understand how someone can get so upset over $4.00 in coupons.

Sometimes it becomes a he said she said and there is no way to clearly say which party is in the wrong.

you honestly have the HARDEST job but you do such a good job!

I do not know how best to keep track of my own list of members that I will not trade with in the future. I have made folders to move these people's pm's into so that I can have a list of their user names that way. I have not been able to figure out how to move the messages into different folders. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Do you mean to move someone's message from say your INBOX to the folder you created?

If so just click on the box after the message(s) in your INBOX and then scroll down to the bottom of the page, on the right hand side there is a little box for "selected messages". If you want to move to folder, just click okay and it will take you to another screen that will have a drop down menu of all your folders.

HTH

Otherwise, if you just want a list of usernames you could PM a note to yourself.

[Angela273]

ha! Thank you. It worked. I had selected the pm (in my inbox), but did not realize I had to click on (go1) to be sent to another page in order to pick the folder to put it into. Thanks for all your help.

How do you delete the things in the folders when you are finished with them????

I never knew this board existed till today ... I have a problem that I have been unable to resolve regarding a newbie train I conducted. I will try to condense the issue as of today but this is the train I'm trying to finalize:

http://forum.smartcanucks.ca/210916-...riving-canada/

Started the train before strike, some envelopes were mailed before, some after. After a very long wait, rec'd most of the envelopes, but to this day 2 are still outstanding: Unigirl (train #1) and Scoothchidoo's (train#3) After waiting a ridiculous amount of time for them to arrive we all agreed that I would send them off without these riders cpns. Not wanting to disappoint the other riders I put in an additional 4 cpns for each of the riders on behalf of these 2 riders and asked riders to leave the appropriate feedback as if the rider had sent them - which most have not to date. In total I added 16 extra cpns for each train, plus I replaced all expired cpns sent by other riders - which were only expired b/c of strike. Sent the envelopes out to all riders and have rec'd feedback from most - have sent PM's to those outstanding and still waiting to see the FB.

Now the issue is this and honestly never thought anything of it till another rider brought it to my attention. Scoothchidoo has never acknowledged that she actually sent the envelope in the thread and hasn't replied to any of the emails I sent her. I've asked her to acknowledge receiving the envelope I sent her with the other riders cpns, but nothing. She has not posted feedback on others either and no one has posted feedback for her.

The other rider Unigirl sent her WL, but didn't include her mailing address when she joined the train. I emailed her requesting it but rec'd, no response. Put her envelope together, ready to mail it and realized her mailing address was incomplete. Emailed her numerous times since and no response. To date, her envelope is sitting here on my counter, sealed but has no where to go cause she won't send address. I sent a message to a mod but never rec'd a response - most likely cause I sent it to the wrong person. I have an envelope of cpns that were intended for this rider and until I am advised on what to do, they will remain sealed on my counter. *I just opened it and the majority of the cpns have or are going to expire.

Please advise on what I should do with both of these riders feedback and Unigirl's envelope.

thanks

I was really hoping that posting this here would get a mod to address my issue. Is there any hope of getting feedback on what to do from anyone? I'm trying to avoid a negative result by addressing it before it becomes an issue.

Have you PMed Sally?

Well, what $4 was it?

Like, I was supposed to receive from someone 2x$2 Kashi, making them really cheap or free when on sale, but instead I got 2x$0.50 Kashi. I never tried them before, so I wanted the $2 so I could get them for cheap/free, so if I liked them I wouldn't mind spending $1.50 on them. I didn't say anything about it, but I was really upset. But since they were a generous trader I didn't tell them they sent me the wrong ones, even though they were HV.

In my opinion, there's a big difference in receiving 2 fifty cent coupons instead of 2 FPC's or near-FPC's for the same product. There's no excuse for errors like this. I've noticed that some traders will misrepresent their coupon values and even send wrong coupons, but this is clearly wrong.
$4 might not seem like much, but if you have little or no income and are living on coupons, then $4 is a lot. And fair is fair.

No I didn't cause reading back pages and pages I read that you post it here. I noticed the mod is on responding to messages so I thought this would be the right place to get my issue addressed. Guess I'll take the next step and email the person you mentioned.

How do you delete the things in the folders when you are finished with them????

You can delete an entire folder by going to the "edit folders" tab (it's on the left hand side of the screen at the bottom of your "private messages" area - below "Send new message").

From there you just erase the folder name on the list and then go to "save folders". Anything that was in the folder you just deleted should bounce back to your inbox and you can then delete it from there if you like.

Kyriakos, if you do not drop this I will take further action. You have been warned to stop. I am starting to run low on patience with you. I have asked you both to move on as there is no way of determining what actually went on. I was more then fair, you insinuating not only Holly was a liar but I was upsetting. I sent you the screen shot that I had. Thats all I had. Obviously it's enough to tell she was telling the truth, not only that BUT I am not obligated to send you anything.

Yes, I did bring up about your multiple usernames and troubles trading when you first joined because this is about the 3rd issue I've had with you in a very short time and if anything its your tone with other traders that makes them more upset then anything.

Please take a few days off and come back less angry. Thanks.

In response to PinkLincoln's post, I think she is raising a good point.
But while following through on the exact details of a trade is important in trading here on Smart Canucks, there is more to it than that. It is the way that traders communicate here and treat each other. Common courtesy and fairness are crucial factors. Trading is not a game for most of us, (to win by taking advantage of someone else, or putting someone else down overtly or covertly). It should be a respectful and fair exchange. That's why there is no place for aggression and rudeness here. And trading disagreements should be tempered with caution and a check-up on one's own attitude.
