Pathetic crooks. I'll keep an eye out.

Being that i am a Mantle guy, i try to look out for those as well

I just find it kind of odd that a crook would send you a $400 card. I would think a scammer would just not bother to send anything. Are you sure it couldn't have just been a mix-up where he mailed the wrong package to the wrong person?

Hope this works out for you.

Ruben - If this does not resolve itself then you may want to reach out to local law enforcement.

Good luck, Ruben, hope it works out. Is the other party a board member, and if so what is his username?

[Iron Horse]

Thanks guys.
I have tried to contact him and no answer. Spoke to his daughter who said she was shocked and will talk to him. Called back 3 hours later and she's not answering. Got her info from ebay since she has a ebay account and that is how i got to know Donald Black

The only problem I see. Is that you did not show up your agreement with him. If it is verbal you are pretty much screwed.

Why did you send all those cards without getting paid first?

It was a trade. Apparently the agreed upon trade didn't happen, and one party got severly shortchanged monetarily. In a trade, someone has to ship first. That is why I am so scared to trade with people.

Hi Jeff,
Yes, it was a trade part $$ and part cards for a single card from his end. The card he sent is valued at $400.
Finding out lots of stuff on him and it looks like he had the check cashed and cards sent to his buddy in crime.
If you like to help drop me a pm
