    No.
    The bigger man will call out a liar. Never let the wrongdoer be right...it's not even about the cards at that point, just morals of right and wrong.

    I guess if you want to be the internet bully...then you can drive over to his house and huff and puff and blow his house down.

    It's the same in that all you have is your word in this day and age and once you lose that, you lose all credibility for anyone to trust you now or even in the future!!! Esp. when you do something of goodwill and not follow through!! I can understand that situations might come up in which you won't be able to fulfill it, but at least let the winner know of your situation instead of acting the way he/she did!!

    Seems purely reactionary to me. You would be fine with possibly damaging someone's reputation over free cards? What are you going to say?

    "This guy said he would send me free stuff. He didn't respond though, he's a total (insert derogatory term). You can't trust him."

    How would you justify extrapolating the person's actions from the contest, to question their integrity as a trader overall? What basis would there be to make such a weighty assumption over one example?

    I think they are questioning the Person's Integrity in the whole. At this point Im just going to take a wait and see approach. I'll give him a few more weeks

    I mean, for someone telling me to not be an internet bully (for no reason,) you are really letting your internuts hang. I've been in plenty of face to face conflicts and fights to know that getting into heated arguments online is just a waste of aggrevation. But if someone lies to me online over 100 dollars it is atleast worth is to let them know that they are wrong. Don't understand what your comment was for.

    And over the internet or in person, if someone is lying, stealing or a wrongdoer...and not atleast saying something to them makes you the opposite of a "bigger" man.

    Oh wow. I read this wrong. Even though I feel I am right about my points of calling out wrongdoer's, if you have nothing invested into it ($$$ wise) then you should just move on. (and handle any problems privately)

    if it were me, i would politely contact him through pm, if nothing comes back then just let it go. no sense in wasting your time or stressing about.

    Thats what Im basically doing. Didn't call him out. Just wanted opinions if I should keep Contacting him or blow the whole situation off. I understand that a person's word doesn't mean much anymore anyhow. I'll wait a few weeks and if nothing by then I'll contact him one more time say thanks for the effort and leave it at that. After seeing the contest threads erased I honestly doubt I'll be getting anything.
