Man, given what's happened, I still hate doing this, but here it goes.
Okay, I attempted my first trade on the tank with former member Cornbot, who is now banned from here for unknown reason. I sent him four sought after 25th joe figures Priority shipped via USPS going on a month ago now. He received them, and even left me a "+1,000" on my feedback page. He went as far as calling me a "cool ass tanker" and a "good friend." He told me he would ship out my package around a week later and asked me for my address. Communication was great for a while and we talked about joe stuff and possible future trades. Around a week goes by after he said he said he would be shipping and I emailed him to inquire about the shipment. He told me he'd send me the tracking number and never did. Long story short, I asked several times for a tracking number and never got it. He stuck with his story that he had shipped his end of the bargain and I have yet to receive anything. It is going on three weeks now since he supposedly shipped and nothing. I sent him an email giving him a deadline and he responded with foul language, also saying that he was deleting my email address and discontinuing correspondence with me. Guess he used my last email to justify his failure to come through. Anyway, I feel like the fool being that I trusted someone so early. (Almost feels like a bad relationship, lol!) For the moderators that banned him from here, for whatever reason, please keep him off to keep this from happening to others. Cornbot, if you're reading this, man I trusted you bro! How could you do me wrong like this. So hopefully I'll be able to trust again. For those that know Cornbot, either from the tank or personally, I'm not trying to be mean. I'm just trying to warn others. If anyone has any questions about the validity of what I'm posting, I have all the emails saved to prove it. Sorry for the long post guys and gals, just trying to vent and warn. Thanks for reading...

sorry to hear that, though I am not surprised.
you can always file mail fraud charges. |

Why was Cornbot banned? He asked if I wanted to do some trade but never got to doing any. I know he's bugged Fire_fly for some to.

True, but given the dollar amount, the U.S. Attorney's Office probably wouldn't touch it. Unless there's a different kind, or level, to seek prosecution at.

What figures did you send him and what was he to give you in return?

I sent him and AFA graded black Timber Snake Eyes, a MOC black Timber Snake Eyes, a U90 AFA graded regular Snake Eyes, and a doc figure. Heck, someone offered me over $200 for the graded black Timber Snake Eyes just before the trade. He was supposed to send me wave 2 and 3 sealed cases for all of that. I even asked him to explain, whether it was that he thought, in the end, that the trade wasn't fair, or whether he just hadn't gotten around to shipping. He never answered and would just beat around the bush.

sorry to hear about this man! That dude always seemed shady to me so I'm not surprised he got banned. There are a lot of great traders here on the tank though. Try not to let it jade you.

With all due respect, everyone, the reasons why CornBot was banned aren't necessary. Needless to say, I can & will confirm that it had nothing to do with bad deals or anything of the sort.
SN, sorry to hear about your ordeal. I would follow CBRs advice & file mail fraud charges. You can also file here: http://www.ic3.gov/ |

C.I.A.D. can you provide us with a little bit of detail? Was he rude to someone? Or did he do something wrong that's against the rules here?
