marmat 6,148 posts Posted May 23 (edited) On April 21st Tristan Esteph posted the on three comics I was selling. I closed the thread on April 22nd and send him the invoice the same day. After not receiving an answer, I sent him a reminder on May 7th He contacted me on May 10th, apologizing for the delay and stating he would pay the day after, May 11th. He did not pay and he contacted me again on May 14th asking me if I still have the comics. The same day, May 14th, I tell him that I still have the comics and I am still waiting for the payment. Still no answer, so on May 15th I send him another reminder, asking for payment within 24h. Still no answer from him, so I sent him a new PM on May 18th informing him that if payment is not sent by May 22nd, I will nominate him for the probation list. He did not answer my new PM and he did not pay. Edited May 23 by marmat 2 Tristan Esteph and Pokecollectoramy reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MustEatBrains 3,267 posts Posted May 24 Getting tired of seeing deadbeats on the boards. Let’s see if @Tristan Esteph has some plausible explanation for treating you like a chump. Think your write-up is more than enough to have him added. 2 1 Tristan Esteph, marmat and Pokecollectoramy reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Always seemed like a tire kicker to me than a real buyer. Sorry to hear you're stuck @marmat 2 1 Pokecollectoramy, marmat and Tristan Esteph reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
telerites 12,512 posts Posted May 24 Sounds like he did more than kick a tire. It would be nice to hear his account. He was pretty active here with his last visit showing this last Saturday. Good luck @marmat 1 1 marmat and Tristan Esteph reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
marmat 6,148 posts Posted May 25 He finally read the PM nominating him for the PL. Still no payment and no answer whatsoever. It seems he does not care. 1 2 Tristan Esteph, Pokecollectoramy and telerites reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am not sure what to make of the "likes" either, I hope he does not think this is the Honour Roll or something.

It’s good you are making it right. Communication is key, just remember that in the future. Going dark and ignoring messages is never the way to go. If you needed more time to pay just ask and most people are ok giving some leeway. 4 Keys_Collector, Tristan Esteph, SkOw and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
