  • Bought a Liteon 12x10x32x CDRW from Dean

    Rainguy was the Buyer on August 25, 2001 AnandTech

    I was not happy about this deal at all. I Paypaled Dean for the drive on Aug 26th. When I did not get delivery of the CDRW in a week, I PM'ed him and asked for the tracking #. Response was slow and he told me he was out of town and would get me the tracking number soon. This went on several more times with him promising a tracking number and not supplying it. Finally, on Sept. 8th he PM's me with a tracking# which does not show up on USPS's web site. I ask him what's up with this and told him I hope that he did not just send this out 2 weeks later. I never heard back from him and two days later the drive showed up. Yes, he apparently was never truthful to me as to when he shipped the CDRW which was on Sept 9th, a week after I first asked for a tracking # and almost two weeks from the date of payment. The drive also was shipped in the retail box that you get from the store and the software CD was just thrown in the box loose, no sleeve, case, or packing material. This all adds up to a deal that I was very unhappy about, especially the slow communication which never told me the truth about the status of the drive. I will not deal with Deanjen again.

  • Bought a Western Digital 40 GB hard drive from Bryan.

    Rainguy was the Buyer on April 29, 2002 AnandTech

    Everything was fine with this deal as far as communication, payment and fast shipping but, the packing job of the hard drive was unacceptable. The hard drive was inside a 5 1/2 bay drive rail and not screwed to it so it was sliding loose in it during shipment. The drive was also not in an antistatic bag and was placed with just a few peanuts in the smallest Priority Mail box they make. Of course, I was not pleased with this but, remarkably, the drive still works. I PM\'ed Bryan my feelings on this after I received the drive and never heard anything back from him. I would just ask him to pack his hardware better if you do any deals with him.

  • Bought a PIII 866 CPU from Mike.

    Rainguy was the Buyer on February 2, 2002 AnandTech

    Well the price was great and Mike had no problem shipping first since, at the time, he did not have many references. The communication was super, he shipped the next day and I had the CPU in a couple of days well packed and in perfect working order. Thanks alot for the smooth deal Mike, hope we can trade again. :)

  • Bought a Zoom 56K PCI modem from Bedford.

    Rainguy was the Buyer on December 28, 2001 AnandTech

    I must say that this gentleman puts out more effort on a trade than anyone I have ever dealt with. I only spent $14.55 for the modem yet, we had great communication, he scanned the Postal receipt and DC ticket and emailed them to me, shipped right the next day and the box arrived well packed with fancy computer lables that he printed out! Needless to say I was quite impressed how Bedford does buisness. Thanks alot for a super trading experience. :)

  • Traded a PR200+ AT System with 64 MB's Ram, etc. to Mike for an External Zip Plus and a 64 MB PC100 DIMM

    Cross-traded on July 12, 2000 AGN

    Well, this the first time I had a package apparently dropped by UPS. The computer case had a small crack in it and one of the hard drives was DOA. Mike, was real calm and nice through this whole ordeal and he tried to get the hard drive RMA'ed. I also sent him 2 Linksys PCI NIC's since I only insured this older system for the bare minimum and I did not want to hassle with a slow UPS damage claim. The two items Mike sent both worked perfectly. The deal worked out fairly since it was neither of our faults and we both calmly came to a reasonable solution. Would defintely trade with Mike again, a nice guy and a good trader.

  • Bought an Athlon 700 CPU and an Alpha P7125 HS/Fan from Curtis.

    Rainguy was the Buyer on May 23, 2000 AnandTech

    Well, we hammered around on this deal for a little while but, it turned out to be worth it. Curtis sold me a few days old athlon and took the Alpha off his other rigged because he knew I was looking for this also. The CPU came well packed and right on time. Curtis is an A+ trader and a real good guy.

  • Traded a 256 MB stick of Micron PC 100 CAS2 for a Celly 500, SB Live and some Cat 5 cable ends.

    Cross-traded on February 4, 2001 AnandTech

    Richard is great with email communication and is a very good fella to deal with. We struck up a fair deal that we were both happy with and I recieved part of my trade in a couple of days. The SB was well packed and was in perfect condition. The Celly was to come after Richard got himself a new CPU. Anyway, this is a fair and honest trader who I look forward to dealing with again. A++++
