Title: blind trust&thecloser29
Post by: lilith2u on January 18, 2012, 10:43 pm
Just a shout out to noobs or anyone else who will listen, Beware the seller thecloser29. In a stupid move on my part i lent him 27.13 BTC so he could get a listing, Him reassuring me that by transferring BTC via SR was enough proof of protection on my part. It isn't, duh i know my mistake! but no one else should trust the seller thecloser29 till he addresses this issue with me. Its going on close to a month now! after excuse after excuse hes put me off, Hasn't been on in 6 days, maybe he just made his scam and is gone for good ? fucking jerk! This is a huge loss for me! don't make the same mistake, has anyone else had trouble with this scoundrel?
Edit: thecloser29 NO LONGER OWES ME! Hes cool and has made amends!!

27 BTC is a huge amount of money. You should have been much more careful with it. A good general rule is: Do not lend what you cannot afford to lose.

Yeah  , i know stupid mistake, in my defense if i have one? Was that i was supposed to get something in return, not really a loan. More like just out of escrow. will never do a deal out of escrow again! and yes for me 27.13 was a huge loss. It sucks that's there's people out there  that prey on others, just beware yourself of thecloser29!

Sorry for the long delay in responding but I just spoke with the OP and am in the midst of paying him back. Not that it changes anything but I've had a ton of personal issues to deal with such as losing my home and a family member passing away.

He will be repaid within a week.

A good friend of mine wants to go into this business with me and he has the $ and more product that I dont have so we would like to re-establish ourselves as a legit vendor with quality product at a fair price.

I'm just asking for another chance to prove myself to everyone and will not let you down.

Seeing is believing. No excuses! No i can't get BTC, I need to send direct or product. Either you have your shit together or not? If you can't came up with that little your not ready to be here anyway? But like I said I wrote you off along time ago, so i just consider it lessen learned. Burn me once your fault. Burn me twice my fault! you choose?  Will keep whoever s interested posted

How many people has the closer29 ask to borrow money from?
I mean a vendor should have no problem returning BTCs in a fairly quick time period.

*shrugs*
Apparently selling overpriced oxycodone and cheap bags of Heroin doesn't cut it.

As always buyer beware. Never deal out of escrow unless your alright with getting burned. Stupid newb mistake on my part:/. Check forums before sales. That's why there's a scam list.

This was well before I got my sales account.

They may be overpriced to you, but to the people ordering it may very well be their only option.

You're paying for more than the product, you pay for the service, convenience, my time spent dealing with customer service, packaging materials, packaging time etc...

You get the idea.
