View Full Version : Unhappy
Rather dissatisfied with the results of my beeswax swap...
persons who have remained nameless have not sent items in return.
A pity as I have got `loads` of things to swap.
In futures when I get the funds to become a full member Ill sell them, cheque or paypal.
that or put on Ebay...
That's a real shame.
C'mon folks, you know who you are - keep your end of the deal!

That's not good tengu sorry to hear you've been let down :(
I thought the membership of BCUK had a bit more about them and would not do this to others it's shameful. If you ask me I think there should be some sort of consequence for this thoroughly distasteful behaviour. Have you had words with any of the mods or admins ?
Sort it out folks and do what you said you would.

If they have no good reason for not sticking to their side of things I certainly think they should be named and shamed, if not worse. If for no other reason than helping others from dealing with them.
If they have not held to their agreement with you then I would not want them on any of my group buys and I doubt others would.
Tengu could you please pass on the details of this swap to me via the Private message system and I will look into it.
Unfortunately as stated in the Rules and guidelines for the swap shop area BCUK cannot recover any items lost during a swap.
However if the item is not returned and no suitable explanation is given by the recipient they may depending on the circumstances have their account with BCUK terminated for misuse of the forum
I agree, this is not on Tengu!
(Though to be honest I had an inital pang of guilt when i first read it - I know i have discused a swop but diddn't think anything was agreed! :o
Now I have re-read it I notice you indicate you have sent out items but not received anything back - so my concious is clear! ;) )
If it is I that has caused confusion i am truly sorry but I can say with hand on heart that I havn't received anything (in fact I don't think I gave you my address so can't be me.....)
common own up whoever you are - this is a careing shareing family I thought i'd joined!

May be a miss understanding,or a postal problem. :confused:
It might be better if the "guilty" parties were PMd and asked to explain before taking any harsh action. :cool:
Then ban the bstards :nutkick: if no believable explanation is forthcoming.

I hope it all gets sorted out. Behaviour like that disgusts me. At one time the most important thing a man desired above all else was trust and respect. What happened? (Orwell was right, the degeneration of society is already in full swing...)
I'm not saying I'm a saint or anything, but I am certainly not a thief, and that is what these people are.
Name and shame, and then ban them. They don't deserve to be a member of this community.
A certain calmness might be the order of the day here... there could very well be a reasonable explanation for what's happened.

Yep, lets wait and see if this can be resolved amicably. Until then can this thread be locked?
Some polite messages will be exchanged before any action is taken, as has been pointed out, there may be a reasonable explanation behind this. Let's not be too quick to judge. :D

I don't know the individual concerned but if they are in Northern Ireland the postal strike here has caused lot's of problems.
Hope it get sorted soon for all concerned.
