Bad Trader Help
About 2 weeks ago I sent a guy 36 DVD's in trade for 8 Blu-Ray Movies...I haven't heard from him since. No emails, nothing in the mail...nada...how long do you guys wait to put them on the bad trader list? I have always had positive trades on here and am really not sure what to do. I don't want to be that guy who put someone on a list, but I also don't want to be that guy who didn't get his movies and did nothing so someone else was hurt by the same guy. Any help is great!

I hadn't checked that before hand, I also am new to this trading thing...so partly I am sure it is my fault. But I had figured he had traded more then me considering this was pretty much my first trade.

I've only had to file a mail fraud complaint once, and it worked. You'll need the person's address though. I'm not really exactly sure what it does, but after about 2 letters sent to the person (the USPS kept me updated through out) I recieved my DVD back.

if you havent had a reply from the trader in more than a few days, i suggest you email mao and give him the specifics. it will take a few days, but he will really help you out in any way possible.
good luck!
