What do you do when you don't get items you traded for?

So, a while ago I traded for some figures with a few people from the Tank, and it's been close to 2 weeks and I haven't received me end of the trade.. They've received mine, and now they are no longer responding to my pms. What is the correct course of action? Understand that people get busy and all, but I'd kinda like to make sure they've at least been sent.

Dont think there is really much anyone can do. Its trade at your own risk i think.

You can report them on the bad seller/traders list. Were they noobs or established members?

Do they have a feedback thread? If so let them know you'll make a post if you don't get any response regarding the transaction. If not start a thread.
I have not traded with anyone here on the tank but people generally seem to be unselfish collectors looking to help each other out. Seems a shame that someone would wish to tarnish that.

I've never had any problems trading or buying and even bought something from someone who had some bad feedback. I'm only trading my extras, but I still expect people to be honest. That's just shitty.

Pretty much what the others said is all that can be done. I have traded and sold many things on here and never had a problem with recieving my items. Even from some that were noobs.

If his messages are going unanswered, 2 things could be a factor. He may have not been on in awhile and his inbox if full. Which means he may still hold up to his deal... or if they are going through. but not getting replied, then he may be scamming people. Wouldn't be the first case of that.

for the most part people trade on the trust system..and usually as long as there is communication back and forth you will get a positive rating.

Go to the buy/sell feedback thread.. see if you can find his name.. read the other feedback left, add yours to the list. After that...there isn't much else you can do. If they do not have a thread for feedback, make one so that others will know that they are taking a risk buying or trading from them. It's better than doing nothing.

Thanks all. No, he's not a newcomer or anything, but I sent him a pm a few days ago and haven't heard anything. I think I'll wait till the end of the week and if I don't get my items or a response, I'll notify an admin and post on their feedback. Thanks for your advice though!
