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

[sheetsofemptycanvas]

I will be leaving a negative rating for Frugal Lisa if I don't hear from her by Sunday. She is on one of my exchange trains and her buddy has not received an envie nor did Lisa ever post that she received hers- NO communication on the train at all. I'm not the only conductor having problems with her.

I will be leaving a negative rating for Frugal Lisa if I don't hear from her by Sunday. She is on one of my exchange trains and her buddy has not received an envie nor did Lisa ever post that she received hers- NO communication on the train at all. I'm not the only conductor having problems with her.

I was just coming to this thread to post about Frugal Lisa.

She joined my exchange train on March 11th and I haven't heard from her since. She didn't post that she mailed her buddy an envie and she hasn't posted receiving one. She hasn't answered my PM's or my wall post and hasn't left FB either.

I will give it until Monday (3 weeks from the trains mail date) and I will leave her a negative rating and send something to her buddy myself.

It will be my SECOND replacement envie (that I've had to send out on behalf of other riders) on this train. I'm getting really sick of people not following basic rules.

I am back from vacation tonight so those of you who sent non urgent PMs, expect answers over the weekend.

Frugal Lisa was active on the frugal living thread and just disappeared. I hope things are okay.

If you PMed me about a trade issue and have not heard back, please PM me again, I likely marked it read meaning to come back and forgot
Everyone else, you should have replies

A few general points from the PMs I have replied to

- one or two issues with trades does not mean someone goes on the blacklist. I know of many good traders who went through 'blips' due to personal issues or local CP issues. The blacklist really is for people who are scamming etc. A negative is often enough to stop people trading with them so feel free to leave honest feedback. Even if you leave a positive after a replacement, you can say it is a replacement or took a while in the rating (obviously if sent late, not if CP just took weeks to deliver)

- I have said this before and will likely say it again but please ignore CP's guidelines on how long mail takes across the country. We all know it can take much longer. Generally you should allow at least 2 weeks for envies to arrive before contacting the person (unless you see others mentioning issues here) and confirming they sent, have your correct address etc. You should also allow the person to replace a lost trade with a fair replacement before leaving a neg

- For trains, the time between the send date and last date to receive should also be at least 2 weeks, it is unfair to have traders send coupons on time to be excluded from the train and wait weeks to get them back on a return to sender sticker when the time allowed for mailing was set much shorter than reasonable.

- Trains should also have clearly stated rules when traders join it, I received a number of complaints of trains with lots of rules added later or dates / number of coupons to be sent etc TBD. It is not fair to change the rules after someone joins then leave them a neutral when they leave the train because the rules are unfair but you put aside coupons for them

One more
- I have changed several ratings left for wrong users, please double check the names before rating, especially if leaving a negative. I know some names are very similar so click from the PM they sent (which you should be keeping as I need full info if there is an issue) to make sure you have the right person
