Because he had no refs, sounded fishy, acted weird. Need more reasons? So would you expect RSC to ship you your order without paying for the figures first? Of course not. If you are buying, you pay. If you are trading, then least refs sends first. If selling, you wait for payment. I just find this all strange. How would someone at your work know how to post around WF and get into your e-mail and cancel an order with RSC? I highly doubt you were hacked. Plus if you leave yourself logged in, it's not really hacking. Umm he's not a reputable company or retailer. As a matter of fact the whole thing wasn't reputable we came to find out. So apparently I made the right decision. Your argument is stupid. I'm pretty sure there's no pay after arrival option on bestbuy.com or rsc.com. You apparently never use the classifieds board. I have had newer members send first a couple times and I always pay. But I do agree with you that the op really wasn't hacked. |

If someone asked me to send my item before they paid, I would laugh in their face. Over many years selling video games on eBay, buyers there have done it, and it's quite possibly one of the most laughable things I've ever heard. "Yes, please take my item without paying first." Let me stamp "sucker" on whoever agrees to that. It's no wonder RSC tells people to do this "at their own risk". Now, I'm not saying attacking *you* directly or saying you're a scammer or whatever else by any means (as you obviously are a very credible trader, and I enjoy your commentary in these forums, but anyway!), but that way of thinking is absolutely preposterous. If you're not comfortable with paying first, then pay via PayPal without using the gift option. It's easily the safest way (but not failproof) to do monetary transactions on the internet. |

Elite trader status isn't what this situation is about though. If MrPerfect25 was an Elite trader he'd have the weight of Elite status behind him to be able to make demands like that, but he's not (yet), so I'm guessing we will end up just agreeing to disagree. |

Well you kind of are attacking me. You just asked if I was 12. Its not really any of Team Slappy or whatever the F's business. Comparing a new member who all of a sudden has his whole collection for sale with zero refs to a successful internet retailer is laughable and holds no merit. Its obvious that I made the right decision not sending money to this "hacker' or "coworker". Not sure why I'm the one getting my balls broken over this. Thanks Hulk |

Apologies if taken as such. Personally, I'm glad you didn't pay the guy first especially seeing how squirrelly he's acting right now. I hate hearing about scam stories. |

I don't care if you are an Elite trade and have 1 million refs, you should have to pay first if you are buying something.
If you don't want to pay first then don't do business with them but you'll be hard pressed to find an adult that will send his stuff out before getting paid for it. I'm sure there are some that will but they are being fools.

If you're not familiar with how a business works by any means then we might as well be speaking pig latin at this point.  |

Hydro we are all good. No harm done. Sometimes things are taken wrongly when you are dealing with just words on a screen. Gnaddi that would have been bad news. Something tells me the op was about to clean house on all of us then had a change of heart.

Not worth the headache, even if I send payment as goods purchased and having to deal with the idiots at PayPal to file a dispute. |

Well I would never deal with someone who wanted me to send first if I was selling. Trading is a different story and less refs of course sends first. But I think we do all agree the guy is lying. |

So the PM's you or someone on your account sent asking about making a offer on cole teddy and ricardo real or someone else? lol this is odd I feel like next you will say come on guys I'm 10 and wanted to feel important. Well if you are selling your collection good luck. If you are still collecting I hope you continue to find all of the figures you want.
EDIT: I also find it odd they had access to your pictures to post what you were selling. Must be you stayed logged onto your photobucket or what ever you use for image hosting. Also must have stayed logged into your email to have your order cancled.

Wait wait, wasn't this the thread where there was a bay link with every elite series and a crapton of other series? Or was that another thread? Because there's no way someone could of put your whole collection up on ebay just by getting access of this account.

Guys, I was hacked. None of the posts you have seen from me today was actually me. I don't know how, or what happened, but me wanting to sell my collection, is totally bogus.
Sorry for all the confusion... Lol. Get the boots out cause the bs's rising. |

To be honest, elite trader status only carries weight for trades. I wouldn't sell an item then send it without first receiving payment. The way I look at it, if I have stuff you want then you pay first and if you don't agree keep moving because I'm not in desperate need to get rid of my stuff. If I don't sell it here it'll be eBay, where I'm far beyond the 200 transactions required to be elite.
Oh, and props to COON whose made deals with me and had no issues paying first.
