Status : Offline | It might help if you PM or e-mail Val directly. If you have the names of these bad traders you might also want to include that information.
I would be curious to know who some of these people are.

Status : Online | Hello I did with one he sent me a copy of a game and the other one I never got the game although he kept on constantly pm ing me to ask if I had posted his .Not sure about the 2nd one no proof did nt get the game but the 1st one I know for sure and I m not the only one either that he as done it on and he as 2 differant names although he denys it .I am slow to go further as he may change his name again .I would nt acuse anyone with out proof but I think you get a good idea after a while and I admit you can be wrong but what is maddening every one knows about this guy so when he sets up a deal we pm them then leave it up to them but some one will be caught out again and any way why should we trade a original what he can copy god knows how many times for a copy .What is useless to any one else .You cant trade it or sell it I apoligise if I have upset anyone but it makes me plain mad and it stops people from trading here

Status : Online | I think word of mouth works just as well- there are post about him (or her) on game swap- but yeah- it does make me mad when people try to pass off obvious copies of geniune games and such- one mistake is one thing- but to do it over and over- hmmm-

Status : Offline | I'm back. Hey, I've started a Bad Traders List. Let's start naming and shaming these people the way they do it on GameBoomers!
P.S. Just read some of the BTR (bad trader reports) from the bad traders list on GameTZ and I think they do a very nice job of this. How about we do the same here as GameTZ does regarding bad traders so the good traders will feel safer about trading here?
