    why do people do this?

    has this ever happened to you? spent 3-4 days and 12 or so messages back and forth,working out a deal. then the other person says that they want to make the deal and that the trade sounds good, then they "disappear" never to be heard from again and they dont return messages. another one of my favorites is when you spend tons of time pulling cards for someone that they wanted and then after spending a couple days looking through cards that they wanted, they disappear and ignore posts/messages...isnt this frustrating? does this happen to you?

    i just had this happen on here. some guy was going to about almost 500 of my yankees commons. and we made a deal and he said he was waiting for people to pay him so he could send me the money. so i messaged him a couple times and he kept saying that. then he started to ignore my pms and i saw him spending money with other people so he clearly has money. its funny because the guy is a moderator to not sure how when he acts like a tool.

    yeah, that is frustrating. my favorite is the one that said "that card isnt for trade because i traded it MONTHS ago" then they trade it to someone else a week later! why cant people just be honest anymore!

    I kinda get bugged when people want me to dig out a card and get them better pics and we go back and forth for ever and no deal! Or when I give a price and they just say PASS. Come on make a offer. If I say $20, and your price was $15 offer it I might take it! I have also be one of those people that doesn't get right back to people, but only when its like a huge list! Like a guy sent me a list of Edgerrin cards FT/FS but the list is like 1,000 cards long and I have to go trough my collection to see what I need lol. But I have sent a pm every so often saying I haven't forgot and Im working on it! I also told him it wasn't going to be a fast proses. Its not like I have to see if I need on card! lol But thats my little input!

    So many people do that now, I just prefer to trade with people I already have, and know what to expect. Not going to be specific, but there's a mod in SCF that does all of that. Several people have been.....'burned'.
