  1. You are 100% correct Dr. X. "Taz-Mite" probably should be kicked out. But it's just a matter of time that he goes to another IP address under a different email and gets right back in here. I've wondered how many people that are on here now... were on as someone else. From a different computer at school. Or their aunt's house. Or etc. Whats the odds that someone who is your best online bud now possibly screwed you in a sale under a different name years ago? I'm sure there are a few here. I'm not saying that what the kid did is excusable... but maybe rehabilitatable. If we could get him to conform (sounds awfully Clockwork Orange-ish)... then maybe he won't keep trying to come back under the radar and just realize that staying is best in the long run. That said... if the kid doesn't even want to try, then the community should get a rope and put him out to dry.
  2. Not really a walk away number... I just want to know, more or less, if I need to move him from devious Bat-Mite territory to maniacal Joker territory.
  3. How much do you estimate he's cost you total combined?
  4. You are probably correct in that assumption, cloudofwit. After I spent the majority of this last weekend standing up for the rules of the community concerning a certain wood connoisseur and his fast food bashing lackies, I must be slacking. For some reason, Taz reminds me of a board Bat-Mite. Maybe thats why I'm hoping he does the right thing here.
  5. Taz, don't know you at all... but here is an excellent chance for you come forward, fess up and become part of the community. Your recent sales thread has given you the funds to take care of what you owe to divad and Mschmidt... just pay them and let them keep the merch. They probably won't deal with you still, but at least you attempted to make it right. Call it a cost of doing business. You will make it back soon here if you treat everyone with honesty and respect... and have merch to sell. You should realize that the scenario that Boscoe is setting up for you is "historical" in relation to these boards. Kinda like giving you the key to the "city". You just have to make the effort. Hope you don't blow it.
  6. It just amazes me that the guy won't even try to correct things... especially since he's been given every oppurtunity to do so. Flippant attitudes and disrespect have run wild this week... so its par for the course.
  7. Well said. I did state "fair enough" to his reply to me about the charity auction. Speaking of proof... I personally would like to see scans of the original shipping receipts of He11blazer's original lost coin shipment. Since there has been considerable questioning that the original coin in question may not have been shipped in the first place, a few of us think that all this "drama" has became a "mystery" now. Tracking is available according to usps.com... which surely one would use sending such and expensive item. http://www.usps.com/international/sendpackages.htm If no tracking then surely if one were to send a $250 coin across the water, they would insure it. If not then perhaps a claims form for the lost package? So there has to be some dated proof there that the original coin was shipped to He11blazer. The post office date stamps everything so it should be easy to prove. Toss that scan up Thing and you'll be totally exhonerated . he's right about you! Get a life! He worked it out with he11blazer its over! Go to work and sell some fries and big macs! ...and I'm happy for He11blazer... now about that proof.

  9. He was recently added to the HOS list... you might want to consider starting payment retrieval tactics through paypal or your credit card company. •Joker-Fish (added 11/3/10 - 10th "Hall of Shame" Member)
  10. I think it's the emboldened adjective that offends him, mate. Nine months to put this right. Disgraceful. I have no standing in this community, so my view is irrelevant, I know that. But the fact that he's got away with this is really quite astonishing. You do have a standing in this community sir & your view is very relevant. You have shown you have a genuine concern for the people here and I thank you for that.
  11. I guess working at Mcdonalds has lowered his IQ Hey guys, how about keeping this to discussions concerning troubled transactions? The mocking is more jerking around than we need right now. Thing, you potentially worked out your issue with Hellblazer, depending on he comes back on here and confirms receipt. 8mile - not sure what your stake is thi ins. What Bio's stake in this? Same as mine? Thats the point I'm trying to make. 8mile, Thing stated (in this thread in earlier posts) that he did not care for the rules of this community. That he didn't care if he was put on probation for not shipping wins for 8 months. More or less that he didn't care for the rules put in place to protect the people here. I don't feel that his attitude was appropriate and I thought it was uncalled for. What is my stake in this? The same as yours should be. To insure that each and everyone of us is accountable for the buying & selling transactions we make here and not to make light of the stipulations that keep us honest. Thing stated he didn't care about that. I know you care about it. You have to since you run solid sales threads and ship on time. I know that other people here care about it too. I ask the people reading this... do you want to send money to someone who doesn't care about the board rules of buying or selling? And Thing, concerning whether or not Cheri got her charity money... go back in the threads where I said "fair enough". You answered my query concerning your charity auction. I'm not the one asking you to show proof of sales receipts, etc... ...its all the other people who paid you and want proof of their donation. Thing, if you would just lean back away from the wood long enough to realize that your statement of not caring about the rules ( in other words "I could steal from you and really don't care) is what got me & everyone else in such an uproar against you. My only other gripe with you is your disrespect for this board and the rules set in place here. Your name calling toward me and the other members of this board is uncalled for as well. Yes I jest with you concerning your stated love of the wood... yes I posted a really funny picture of your "mc-order"... but I never called you anything but what you posted about yourself. I must ask tho... am I supposed to be ashamed to have a job at McDonalds? Don't you think that if someone who does work there and reads what you wrote might feel a little bit tarnished by your comments? Its an honest job with competitive pay in this day and age. That said, if I've offended any other wood lovers out there, I apologize to them right here and now. I'm also sorry if you think I started "drama". I apologize for getting under your skin and making you have to resort to attacking others on this board. I feel that I have done nothing wrong except try to get you to realize that not respecting the rules here is exactly the same as disrespecting everyone here. I will leave it up to everyone else reading this to decide one way or the other.
  12. More name calling and "condensation?" ... and from someone who has spent the better part of two days explaining his actions to a community he himself has stated he does not care about. You sir, are truly a connoisseur of fine wood. http://boards.collectors-society.com/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Main=206177&Number=4367262#Post4367262
  13. Perhaps now you realize why such a blatant attitude and a flippant remark about the board rules can come back to haunt you. Name calling and condescension really isn't helping much either. That said... "McRib combo with a large coke"... got your order right here.
  14. No need to be demeaning. I'm pretty sure he is a grown man... It's ok Paul... I can take anything this guy has to say about me and my character. Boscoe hit it on the nose that the flippant remark is exactly what got me riled. You admitted your mistake which was great, but not caring about the rules that are set in place to protect the members of this board is not the best thing to state in a post. No drama here either... only facts. Just because I call you out on the fact that you don't care about the people on this board doesn't make me a cowboy... it just lets everyone here know that should you sell them anything in the future, you really don't care if they get the item they paid for or not. Nor do you care about the rules in place to hopefully insure that you do. Why should anyone trust you? To me that makes you perfect Hall of Shame material. Honestly Thing, you don't deserve a "break" today... especially since your last one took approximatly 8 months.
  15. Fair enough. You did find time to post almost every day somewhere on the boards... http://boards.collectors-society.com/ubbthreads.php?ubb=userposts&id=1591 ... all the way back for months and months... but still couldn't put one coin from a $250 win based on generosity... into one envelope and mail it. I want you to realize that it is a slap in the face to everyone here to state you don't care about the rules or probation list status. When the majority of us sell something here, we don't procrastinate or make excuses... we just ship it. We care about the rules because we don't want the things that happened to He11blazer happening to us. If you don't care about the community or the rules that were here before you, then you should sever your ties here. How much longer would you have waited to mail him anything had this thread not came about? 6 more months? Or would the man's generosity have simply been forgotten? Just bad business.
  16. True... I could take pictures of every envelope in the post office and never mail a one of them.
  17. I saw that also. I havent been on a whole lot lately. Who was this craigmcreary? Did he try and start another sales thread? Where was Roy? We need answers here. DR.X Glad the Arch was on top of it... this guy deserves a slow and painful lashing.
  18. Definitly probation worthy. Is there a coinee probation list? He does not sell or buy comics to my knowledge. Maybe a probation listing in the coin section would get his attention? I'd be totally danged before I'd except a $200 refund for a $250 sale thats 8 months late in shipping. I'd say the guy should refund you your full purchase price AND give you something just for the heck of it. I doubt very seriously if the charity party received any of the money either unless you sent payment to a different paypal address than his. This much slack still DESERVES probation status... especially since the guy just stated he didn't care about the probation list in the first place. Put him on the Hall of Shame list and that way he won't have to worry about dealing with any of us again. The nerve of some people. He11blazer... you deserved better than what you got.

  20. A tad over-the-top, don't you think? Maybe a little... but my Grandma's name was Betty.
  21. Sigh... I don't have anyone to go on the list. My comments were directed at divad's comment...which is quickly appearing to be a mistake. He states "If you fail to make good on a transaction within the 30-day period (which is already a gracious amount of time) you should go on the list)". My whole entire reason for commenting was that I think there are justifiable reasons that make it acceptable for the seller to go past the 30 day period with proper communication from buyer to seller. divad stated he "didn't care if they lost their jobs or grandma died"... miss the 30 day window, go on the "list". divad states that he didn't care what reason there was... and that if that 30 day window has passed that people need to be warned and then put the offending party on the list. I disagreed with divad. I didn't disagree with the entire concept of "the list" or "use of the list" or the "point of the list". I just feel if your entire family dies in a plane crash that just so happens to fall on your house... then that its ok to send those comics in 40 days or so... or refund the money if you can't make it to the post office. divid's comment states that he doesn't care... and I believe with certainty that he doesn't. He doesn't care. A lot of people don't care if you, I, his family, yours or anyone elses simply spontaneously combusts. "Clean up their ashes, have your memorials... but make sure that on day 30, I've got the books I ordered or I will place you on "the list" to show how much of a problem you are". I just feel like we should care more in situations like Deaf Mute's and a select few others. The entire point is I just don't agree with what divad said, or how it was worded. His opinion, I respect it... just don't agree.
