We could do with some forum muscle flexing to sort this out for you and scare off anyone else who might see us as an easy target. It's an insult to us all if they seriously think they can get away with it.

not just that, but the seller could be a member here who's jolted into action, before even being fully shamed. You know how it is, some people overreact, othertimes the seller has some kind of crisis, we're all human. It's impossible to react to this thread, as it's a waste of time unless some details are given about what was bought, when and from whom. Did he/she send 3 grand to a zero feedback seller or a powerseller? What's the deal with AS? etc etc etc? Maybe this poster is even scamming the seller - no offense intended, but it's tough to form an opinion based on "I've been screwed"!!
Most of all, I hope Alibertine hasn't offed himself, he sounds pretty depressed. I would be too!

I am also certain approaching the moderators on Auction Sab would help deal with the situation. As for Ebay - that's a major minefield.

Fair point, without details it could just be waffle or a grudge. Either way there need to be safeguards against scams, I've never been caught out myself, but I have waited what I consider to be too long without receiving an item and with no contact, only for it to turn up further down the line. I sent prints to someone and they got returned, taking over 3 months to arrive back with me. The buyer put in a claim on paypal against me and it was only much further down the line we both realised it was a genuine balls up and the deal eventually was done in cash. 4 months later !

I've bought a couple of prints recently and haven't heard from the seller.
I'ts only been 4 days, but I still find this weird as I've already paid.
If it turns out to be the same person, then we could both go round and have a chat! ;D

I'd have been banging on someones door by now to make sure I knew if it was a scam or not. The longer you leave it the worse it's going to get. 4 weeks is plenty of time to get a response and they only have themselves to blame if they get the arse with you naming and shaming at this late stage.

Ebay and Auction Sabatour **Member Scam**, by mcnuts on Apr 12, 2008 13:41:11 GMT 1, Silky, FPR asked me to post this message on his behalf
cheers
"I am aware that someone is concerned that they may have been ripped off. So far i can happily say no one has claimed to have been ripped off yet on auction saboteur but sadly possibly this is a first. Unfortunately i cant write on this forum because i have been banned for expressing dissatisfaction with a decision silky once made.
This is a request to silky: Please can you re-instate my membership and lets let bygones be bygones. It looks like someone needs help with this problem and your members would be well served by having me among there ranks once again to discuss such matters when necessary. I was a fond member of this forum as you know and naturally I am willing to help in any way i can to help resolve this problem, including passing details on to the police if necessary. Unfortunately not being able to address members of your forum publically about these concerns really causes problems for everyone. Silky please can I be reinstated into your forum? If so, I promise to keep my posts either fun or helpful.
If i cant be re-included into the forum then please contact me direct info@ and I'll try to do all i can to help. However I would advise that you remain a little more patient as i have had a few people sending me worried emails, for all of them to come good in the end.
Kind regards,
Mark. / Finsburyparkranger
PS silky, what do you say, please mate? "

Totally your call but the guy is practically begging you publicly as well! In that sense, it seems to be an apology and a promise to behave.

The fact that this issue has been raised on this forum, should really warrant FPR being given access to this forum to help settle the matter, and defend the integrity of his website. If not, I say delete this thread NOW, and stop the unanswered allegations.
I personally think this would show you are a reasonable person, who has the best interests of forum members at heart.

There are other people on here who are a lot more disruptive, but I wouldn't ask / want them to be banned as this should be an open forum where ppl voice their opinions (within some reason and avoid being personal)
Totally Silky's call, he runs the board, but imho it's info's loss not having him here
