I need to quit trying to sell or trade stuff here . .

Like the last five times, I've run into this big wall that likes to keep reminding me who's daddy.  Had a few good transactions to begin with from Nicanor and Doug Sterner, among others, but these last few have been hell.  

Some kid came into the shop with a Firestorm one day trying to sell it, so naturally I bought it, knowing I could sell it here.  Found a buyer in a few days and arranged to send it to him.  Come to find out, the ball had been stolen, and the rightful owner came asking about it before I shipped it.  Naturally I had to give it back.  

No more than a couple weeks later, I made a deal with PerfectStorm to send him a couple used balls for a NIB.  Sent him a Time Zone and a Super Charge.  Of course, I never got my ball.  

Talked to a couple more people about buying balls from them, and every single time, I had some freak unexpected expense that popped out of nowhere and wouldn't allow me to afford it.  

Just recently, I posted some things for sale or trade.  Have had some interest, and I promised them pictures.  I used my brother's camera, but needed him to download them onto his computer because it was the only one with the software for the camera.  His fiancee just went back home last weekend after visiting (she lives in New York), so he was pissed, and locked himself in his room for a couple days.  When he finally became sociable again, he said he'd dumped the software for the camera, so I'd have to use my parents camera.  So now it's been like a week and a half, and I haven't been able to send any pictures to anybody, and I feel terrible about it cause I don't want a bad rep.  To the interested parties (of the Solid Uranium), I will take the pictures tonight, and have them to you tomorrow.  That is, if you're still interested anymore . .
