Got me too. I can tell he is just a kid. I have an intact copy of his address if anybody needs it.

This kid had less than 10 completed trades so anyone that sent first did so at their own risk. They have nobody to blame but themselves. Once again....on this site and many other trade sites, it mentions that if you have less than 20 trades, you may be asked to send first. Everyone knows about building positive feedback and new traders are usually asked to send first. There are people in this thread that were smart enough to wait to receive his end. They were not burned by this kid. Those that did send first have unfortunately learned a lesson the hard way. (06-18-2013, 01:13 AM)david campos Wrote: What is this supposed to mean, Hughes?

They have nobody to blame but themselves.I do take full responsibility for sending 1st and understand that ALL trading is done at our own risk so I'm not pointing the finger at anyone but myself. I also understand that Beckett (any web-site for that matter) cannot monitor/verify everyone's age and do not in anyway blame Beckett for what has transpired with this kid. I've learned my lesson and will just have to be more diligent going foward. I appreciate and applaud floydtown for the time and effort put in to try to help us get this squared away. Sorry to all those who have gotten taken.
*When it's all said and done - all we have left is our reputation.
I completely agree - It was a $3 card on my end and I took the chance. I really do appreciate everyone doing their best to get him to send what he did.

RE: CARDS101 (12 people and counting)
It was meant toward one particular user who has a thing out for me and has some negative response every time I post something!
My comment had nothing to do with beckett and the job they're doing handling this. I know they're doing, and did, all they can to fix the situation. By the way, I would appreciate you not throwing my name out there.

Your poor trading habits and backing out on sales to members, etc has nothing to do with this. Your post basically said it shouldn't have happened because Beckett should have never allowed a 13 year old of the site. I simply defended Beckett because they have rules in place and can't have anyway to truly verify his true age. Maybe you need to not mix personal with other issues. I don't have a thing out for you but when your wrong, your wrong. It's that simple. I would have said the same thing to anyone here that blamed Beckett for a 13 year old kids screw up. The blame lies on the young man and some what on his parents but not at all on Beckett. If anything Beckett deserves and applause here for having a mod like Floydtown who is spending a lot of his free time working to get resolution here for those involved.

When I brought up Claymaker101 to CARDS101 his tune immediately changed from "WHEN R U SENDING!!! IM A SEND NEX WEEKE" to "Ok. Fine, I'll send next week". I do think it's an adult, as well.thanks for letting me know

I wish parents would get involved and help this young man collect. The sad thing is had he asked here most of us would have helped the young man rather than him going about it the way he did.
