hello, i dont wanna do this but i just thought it was nesscessary to make this thread so that i can get a response from this kid. I agreed to sell him my bern baker for 60 dollars it was an incredibly generous offer and i told him i would send it as soon as I got the money. He is a newer member soi cant determine how credible he is but he is a nice kid and there is a chance the post office eiter confiscated the cash or it got stolen or lost in the mail. however i am really in need of the money because i need to buy a new pair of glasses and a new drivers license (my wallet was stolen) anyway i asked him for some specifics about how he shipped it and the service he shipped it with and that was 4 days ago. He has been online everyday since then without responding which makes me a little concerned. Anyway i really would like the truth about whether or not he shipped it when he said he did or not and so on i would rather have the truth than the money, and he isnt technically scamming me. If you know him (in person / facebook friends let me know or send him a pm telling him to respond to his messages. thanks alot and make sure to check out torin yater wallace in super pipe finals!

although common its stupid. i usually get checks. there is no way to tell if someone took your cash and its pretty easy to tell if there is an envelope with just cash it in. and the kid seems good i really dont think this deserves a callout at all

well it doesnt really affect you though.

you can just chill out and wait for the money, if it doesnt come, he just lost $60.

if it does, ship it out and commence the deal. its really simple. i wouldve thought hed be the one having the callout, not the seller....

this is really wierd to me

Dude sending cash through the mail, or requesting cash through the mail, is the dumbest thing you can do as far as buying/selling stuff. There is a large chance it won't make it, there is no paper trail for insurance/proof, and it takes a couple days... Paypal takes 3 minutes...

If your selling stuff over the internet, why not pay for it on the internet?

Well, put it back up for grabs. Hate to say that, but if you need the money, tough luck for him because he fucked up. If he has been responding and just as confused as you, that is one thing, but if he is dodging you, something is up.

Sorry to say it.

If you still have the helmet this isn't a callout. A callout is a scam or ripoff. It's pretty clear the dude just doesn't want your helmet. You don't screw up by saying you sent a money order, then say you sent cash in a regular envelope. That's pretty obvious. He's not answering because he doesn't want the helmet and he didn't send you money. Just put the helmet back up for sale and move on.

lol OP is familiar with callouts. This could be looked at several ways, maybe OP got the money and made a thread to say he didn't, screwing over the buyer. There is no proof if it showing up lol. maybe the buyer bailed out and isnt interested anymore. maybe the seller did send cash and it was taken from a usps driver/sorter who felt a wad of cash. maybe the seller saw your previous history and was trying to pull one over on you. This is why sending/receiving cash is always a bad idea.

This is all hypothetical by the way. Just showing how sketch it is.

-"i want to sell this so i can buy my sister a really nice christmas present because december 23rd will mark her 3rd year in remission from burketts lymphoma (cancer)"
-"however i am really in need of the money because i need to buy a new pair of glasses and a new drivers license (my wallet was stolen)"
-"hey im really relying on that money i need to replace a drivers license and pay back my mom."

I'd stick with one story too.

I've sent cash through the mail multiple times (Oh no!) and it has all gotten recieved within 3 to 6 days. If it has indeed been confiscated (it is illegal to do this) then it is %100 his loss.

You'll get that one time where someone is out to scam you. And do you know how easy it is for a mailman/sorter to snatch that dough?

AHAHAHAHA....

OP... technically, you deserve a callout for this, because it sounds like you specifically requested cash. That is a dick move. Just get a paypal!

Also..... you have the reputation of being a scammer. You had a callout thread that you richly deserved.

Just saying...

really this is a dumb thread first off not sure why there is a callout about me, first off this kid only wanted cash, he didnt want paypal, cashiers check, or anything just straight cold hard cash. I dont know about you but im not a fan of sending cash through the mail, with a western union i can see when it gets cashed or picked up and you also have the ability to cancel it, same when sending a money gram you can cancel it before it gets cashed. Also there are plenty of callouts on this kid.


If he had sent out the helmet and I hadnt paid then yes call me out, but unless you have sent me something and I havent sent you anything dont call me out kid.
