Traded my NIB Logitech Z-5300e for his Bare PNY 6800GT AGP w/NV Silencer 5 (no original HSF)

Cross-traded on March 11, 2006 HardForum

I have the honor of being samfisher\'s first trade with heatware. He had great communication. He did a fantastic job packaging the video card. It arrived quickly and exactly as described and works great. I sent him the speakers the same day that I received his card. He was prompt to leave feedback after the trade was complete. It\'s hard to believe this is his first trade because everythign went so smoothly. He\'s the newest asset to the trading community!

He sold me this description: 10" Single Sub Box - The box is brand new never used. No holes in it or anything. Its for a 10" single sub.

TechnoButt was the Buyer on July 19, 2005 AnandTech

The box arrived quickly and fairly well packaged. Unfortunately, his younger brother apparently had installed a subwoofer in the box without him knowing at some point so it had a half dozen screw holes. The box also had some splitting damage in the edge of the opening for a sub that looked like it was either caused by screw removal or perhaps shipping stress in the area where a screw had been removed. In any case, I shipped the box back and Nathan was right on top of the refund. He even refunded my shipping costs since the box was significantly not as advertised.

I always say, it's not wether or not a trade goes south, it's how you deal with it that determines what kind of trader you are. Nathan is the best kind.

I traded him my good condition PSP 2.6 for his scratched up PSP 1.5 and paid shipping both ways.

Cross-traded on March 5, 2006 Other/Unknown

He shipped promptly and decently packaged. I used his packaging to return my PSP to him. Good communication, good trader. The PSP powers on ok (no games to test yet) and the system information reports ver 1.5, so I think we\'re golden. Thanks for the trade!

Sold him a Dell 2405fpw LCD Monitor.

TechnoButt was the Seller on August 16, 2006 AnandTech

Great trader. He has superlative heat, so we cross shipped the monitor and check. No drama from him when I had a couple of days delay thanks to wedding planning headaches on my end. Once shipped, he got the monitor next day and left me feedback without a request. Great communication, no drama with the check, it arrived before the monitor did. Thanks again!

X2VGA with switchbox and audio cable

TechnoButt was the Buyer on November 17, 2004 AnandTech

This was a long drawn out transaction due to some DOA testing delays and to a disagreement that Pat wanted to get feedback from the users and Anandtech before agreeing to accept what I thought was a defective unit. It turns out the X2VGA has some sort of compatibility problem with my Samsung 193P LCD (ulimately I found another xbox and another monitor to firmly isolate the problem to be an undocumented compatibility problem). Regardless, Pat was willing in the end to accept a return of the item in question for refund even after I imposed a three week delay after receipt before I could even test the device for functionality (my xbox needed repairs and that transaction turned into a problem). Ultimately, as the unit appears to work as advertised between an xbox and a CRT monitor, I opted to keep the unit (even though Pat did agree to refudn the money and did not ask me to continue testing to completely isolate the problems before returning). He is a very good trader. I'm very sorry for the misunderstanding and the complicated situation. I would GLADLY do business with Pat(flavius) again without fear that he would leave me hanging should extenuating circumstances develop. He's an upstanding trader. He has decent communication. I have no reason to doubt his word. Kudos to Pat!

BFG 6600 GT OC 128 Retail package with all accessories. :)

TechnoButt was the Seller on July 13, 2005 AnandTech

Fast payment. I shipped it out same day with USPS Priority/DC/Insurance. He promptly notified me on receipt and very politely requested a few days to test as he was assembling a rig and didn't have all of the parts. As soon as he got the parts, he tested, and promptly posted heat. Great trader. I'd deal with him again in an instant! A+

A pair of P3 Coppermine 1ghz/133mhz cpus SL52R

TechnoButt was the Seller on April 25, 2006 AnandTech

He paid, I shipped USPS Priority. Luckily they were insured since DC never updated. Once I asked about filing insurance, USPS magically found the package and got it back on track. Took about 10 days to arrive. :(

Great trader, good communication, very cool headed even while the package was in question. I\'d gladly work with him again!

UPS 2-day for a third party shipment: Gigabyte K8NS Ultra Venice 3000+

TechnoButt was the Buyer on September 28, 2005 AnandTech

McFuggin sent these two components from a larger trade directly to a buyer and stood behind my DOA warranty of 72 hours for the buyer. The goods went out promptly and got upgraded to 2-day UPS without being asked. They arrived in good condition and more than satisfied someone who bought parts from me I didn't even see. I don't make it a habit to sell things that I don't have in hand or tested, but McFuggin agreed to take the responsibility for them and shipped them direct. We agreed to replacement costs for those items if my deal with the third party went south. Everything went through without a hitch and everyone has heat to show for it (and equipment they're happy with). This is probably the most complicated, but most satisfying trade/deal I've ever had in my 15 years online. This guy is a class act and you should gladly deal with him.
