Just an FYI, both Patrickool93 and I have just been royally screwed by him. We did some trades with him a few weeks ago, and he has yet to deliver on his ends while we have delivered on ours. Watch out for him and his trades.

This has been a 68k/PPC MLA public service announcement.

*EDIT/UPDATE*
Apparently, Macg4 is the one that has yet to deliver. I feel bad about posting this thread now...

My apologies to DeerSteak, and I will be contacting Macg4 to see if this can be resolved.

/me sheds a tear for his lost Airport Card and his not-to-be-had 1400 :'(

I really was looking foward to a PowerBook 3400c too...

At least maybe I can get my $20 back from Macg4. He's a nice guy.

Wow, if he's really run off with your stuff that's terrible - he seemed a nice guy too, I'd never have been suspicious at all. Have you not heard from him at all then, it's not just that he can't contact you or get your details because the 68k site has been down? I guess you can't trust anyone Crying or Very sad

I'm really sorry to hear it - I would say I hope that it turns out to be explainable and gets sorted, but I guess that's looking unlikely. I feel your pain, I like the look of the 3400 and think it would be a nice one to have too, and I'd hate to lose money/trades in this way. Such a shame, I always felt that I could trust people at 68kmla too :'(

#8 Sun Apr 15, 2007 9:05 pm hmm...

when did this happen? wish to break it down further?

well, at least i'll make Patrickool93 feel a little better, i'm sending him a 16mb ram card for a 1400, in trade for a AAUI adapter.

edit: just realised a 1400 was supposed to be recieved, unless the ram is for another one.

#10 Sun Apr 15, 2007 10:12 pm

Yes, the ram card is for the MIA 1400. I'll of course still do the trade though.

lol... DeerSteak. rare please. Yes, Bloody.

good thing I didnt send it then. was going to wait until Monday to go get a bubble mailer. well, if you do get it, i'd be free to trade. But right now, I really dont have a need for AAUI. yes, it would be cook, just not important ATM.

I just got a PM from DeerSteak.

He stated that Macg4 hasn't delivered the Classic II yet. I am revoking the harsh things said about him earlier in this thread until further notice.

I'm not as I still havnen't received my 1400 or a tracking number.

#14 Mon Apr 16, 2007 5:59 pm

I just sent an e-mail to Macg4, the third party in our deal. When I get his reply, I may keep or reform my opinion.

I tend to give people the benefit of the doubt.
