Hopefully, your bark is worse than your bite...................go get 'em, snowdog! We all like to think that people are good and trustworthy, but, sadly, they are not. Yes, it's probably a good policy to get paid first before mailing anything out. But then, on the flip side, you have to hope that the person will be honest and mail it out once they receive your money. Maybe you should require a deposit first.
Just remember..............what goes around, comes around!

It makes me sad and angry that people are taking advantage of you, one of the most generous RTHers there is. How many of us have "joked" about how you were using extra rocks for packing material, how inaccurate your scale was (in our favor), etc?
You deserve to be cranky.

Welcome to the ranks of us cranky ole scudders Snowdog! I think you have good reason to be so too. The fact that most rock folks are generally so honorable and generous in sales and trades makes the rotten ones stand out and disappoint so much more. No excuse for not honoring a deal and those who totally fail to respond to inquiries ( at least if they have a problem they should tell ya) are the worst of all......Mel

That is too bad. I hadn't been a member more then a week when Snowdog posted a FRB. He had to lead me around the site because I didn't have a clue about PM or anything else. Asked if a check was OK, he said yes so I sent it right away so he would get and send my FRB. Guess what, he didn't wait for my check much less wait for it to clear. Talk about trust. Well it sounds like a few low lifer's took care of that trust. That is too bad. Snowdog you are the greatest..........MrP

I'm sorry to hear that stuff is going on with you! You are one of the MOST generous people I have ever met in my life. Ripping off anyone is bad but ripping off Dave is dirty, um, stuff...

Guilty, guilty, guilty!!! Sorry, Dave, life got in the way. It was a time issue. I hope I have fixed it!
Thanks so much, Tom loved the belt buckle.

After we talked, Dave I'm glad you made the post. There ain't no excuse worth 3/4 months of non-payment. Like we talked about Dave, even if your father died, you still go home and you still pay your bills, you still buy food, gas pay the rent. Why not pay your debt and thank the person that sent you the FRB for making a day a little bit brighter? I don't play that crap and no one here should either. We all post and talk to each other, When someone posts some rocks for sale and you take the initiative to answer or PM another about a deal, then to flat out not pay, even the shipping for a FRB. That sucks. That shows what kind of person they are.

There is no profit in taking advantage of snowdog's generosity or anybody else for that matter, but it is a fact of life, that a few rotten apples will spoil it for all the rest of us.
Dave, Nothing wrong with protecting yourself. I'll gladly send you a rubber check any day for a solid flat rater ;D ;D john

Dave I am so sorry I wish the A$$ Holes would stay out of our safe rock place!! If you made the Dog cranky you had better own it and fix it. Mess with one rock you may get the whole batch!

I adore you too, snowdog! You sure did me right with my 1/2 box of lace for me and special lace for the gift exchange. I'd be glad to pay in advance any time you want to offer up some FRBs.
Sorry they "done you wrong."
I may have already posted in this thread, but I still feel strongly about this sort of thing. Just pm when you've got a problem, people, most everyone will work something out with you before it gets this bad!
