Thanks! Sorry we couldn't work things out, and I will update the post to avoid the confusion.

Eh, I wouldn't call it paranoia but being smart, in this particular instance being sour. But I still wouldn't send simultaneously with a new user. Regardless of having one or two"great trades". Also, pointing at an eBay account? Anyone can simply make an account with the same account name from any other service, so tbvh that doesn't sit well either. Regardless, valdor, if you would like to argue and debate silly things like this you can feel free to PM me rather then doing it here. But, that said;

On one hand you yourself, have (in your own words) never been harmed by a scam or anything that brought up arguments so you most likely don't understand that there is quite possibly risk in someone saying, "Trust me, look at my Pucatrade/eBay/etc", that doesn't get a vote of confidence, something I simply pointed out. I don't think (personally) it would be in my best interest to simultaneously trade with someone with low rep (also because the travel times of cards should roughly be 3-5 days both ways, 3 weeks is quite the over exaggeration!). A simple point that, if one person such as myself thinks that way, there will be other people that also think that also think that way. As someone with multiple Arlinns, it will just make me avoid trading.

EDIT: Oh boy, forgot to address the addition of calling this a witch hunt. No - I just pointed out that the demands will drive off traders especially due to recent circumstances. Nothing more and nothing less.

The only thing you can do is file a fraud report with the local police department. I doubt it will help you regain cards or money in whatever transaction, but at least it is a step in the right direction to have the individual get justice. It is a sticky situation. I really try to only trade in the North East because if someone is going to screw me over I will drive to their house and confront them because, honestly I am not that shy of an individual and I'll look for any excuse to take a road trip with the motorcycle.

Very true, sort of a bummer that to get additional protection you need to pay. But the model makes sense in the long run I suppose.

That alone infuriates me. I try to trade before buying and one of my first trades I lost a baby Jace before discovering Deckbox, I can only sympathize for those losing exorbitant amounts of cards.

I completely agree with this. I love this website and recommend it to everyone who approaches me for trades because it allows me to get the cards I want rather then getting tons of junk from some kid at the LGS. If it is only Sebi doing things, maybe more help is required.

But finding the help will be another task.

Jesus, this scares the crap out of me and makes me not want to trade with anyone.

I already have a limited trade list because I'm new to the game and feel embarrassed when trying to trade up with higher users who simply seem to ignore my offers... Bleh.
