If it was my trade I would want to know about it immediately so I can fix it. I can not guarantee that all of my rocks are good but I can guarantee that I will send more if they are not. Jim

I would want to know if I traded and what I sent wasn't good. Sure wouldn't want to make a bad trade and I'd make it right. Sometimes the only way to know if it was bad is if the other person tells you. Sorry you had a bad experience.

You're not burned until you have contacted the person and give them a chance to 'right the wrong'.

It takes time to build trade relationships. I see guys on here that say " send me a MFR of xyz Joe" with little description. They have traded for years and know what each other wants. It just takes time. No different than getting better lumber from Main St Hardware than Ace.

Wow this sounds uncharacteristic of the folks on this forum. The last negative trade post that I can recall was involving a guy named Dougy who turned out to be a scammer selling stolen material

you should get to know who your trading with first ! did you contact that person and see about making it right? i have been trading here for awhile havnt had any trouble yet and hope i havnt caused any either Don't know who got burned, or by whom, but I can say that I have never had a single regret trading with you, Roy, although I'd be happier if you sent me 3 pounds free for every 1 pound bought!! J/K I have tried to be fair in all my dealings here even when times got bad and the people here have been the absolute best about it. The people I have worked with here have been the some of the best trading partners I have ever had, whether material for cabbing, or stuff for my daughters collection, or to take to her school for science class, I have never, nor do I hope to ever, have a problem with anyone here!!
