I was wondering the same thing.  He's either bought 150 balls anonymously or none!

I have sent this user numerous messages about stuff I have that he claims to want to buy and he always says he doesn't have the funds or some other excuse..

I see no reason to post saying you want to buy something unless you have the funds available and really are serious about wanting to buy..

Thanks..

He was going to paypal me but another br member changed his mind and wanted the ball first. So i think he is a fisherman looking for good deals, i do not understand why he posts for all these different balls but its his choice too. It was the arsenal angular btw and he is still looking for it, so i think he is real.

Just counted my messages and he has messaged me 79 times in the last week asking questions about balls for sale and trade.  I have promptly answered EVERY question.  Asks the same questions over and over and hasn't bought one thing.

I'm going to be careful on this subject, because from some of his messages, I've been thinking he may be "special".

Well ... other than irritating us, he hasn't done anything bad (like getting a ball and not paying); so, it's just a red flag on this guy/gal, I guess.
 I just posted this thread so that my roomies were aware ...

I think yellow would be a better flag....As in yellow on a traffic light, yield.  Afterall, that's what he does with everything

After all of the bad transactions people have made here poor sellers/buyers....I don't think it would be a bad idea that if he wants to buy a ball from a reputable seller that he send payment first.

After all of the "yellow" flags, that would be the safe bet.

We posted this under his two post's in the
feedback forum. Nothing wrong with being a
rookie but you wasted our time and we lost
sales due too you, rookie! You don't remember
the Icon you were buying but never sent the
money?
MadMax

lipscomb770,
The question should be who has had a good
deal with you? We had a ball NIB, boxed and
ready for shipment for you for a month. You
never bought it, you asked for our PayPal,
said you were sending payment but never did!
Not just one ball but inquired on several and
never made a purchase. You list post's all
the time for NIB & Used but buy from no one.
What's your answer? BR members want too know
what your doing, it shouldn't be the other way
around! If you have a problem with this post
or question to you, then contact me. I think
your a kid who can't afford anything wasting
mine and other BR members time.
Answer this question, MadMax.

I see he's back to his old 100 questions game.

I don't think he's ever scammed anyone, but he's a colossal time waster.

He has started transactions with me in the past but never came through. No deals were closed. He did ask alot of questions and indicated that he wanted to trade his Enriched Uranium, but I really do not think he had an E.U. to trade.
