TOPIC: Re: smakdown's auction house.

GONE!

notifying winners for a bit.

I've been hesitant to post on the forums about this, but it's been over a year at this point. Did everyone else receive the item(s) that they won from Smakdown's last auction?

I did not receive the item I won. Normally I might have written it off, but it was both pretty expensive and an item that completed a set for me that is nearly impossible to find.

I sent Jeff (Smak) several personal messages, but they are all still unread with no replies. It looks like it's been more than a year since Smakdown posted on the forums. A friend with Jeff's contact info reached out to him more than once months ago, but that didn't resolve the issue. It sounded like there might have been some problems with shipping and packages being returned.

I realize at this point I might never get the item, I was just wondering whether my situation was unique or whether anyone else was still waiting for their item. I've never had problems with Smak in the past (including purchases from previous auctions) and have enjoyed our interactions, so there must be some other factors in play.

Thanks!
Mike

That really sucks. I'm surprised, as I've never had an issue with Jeff when it comes to getting tokens from him. I did not bid in his most recent auction though. Hopefully he's okay...

Thanks, Rob. If nothing else, maybe this post will remind Smak to send the tokens when he starts his next auction.

Updated, Smak had a lot of problems with the mail in getting these tokens delivered, so today he hand delivered the tokens that I'd bought, and included some GP for the delay. All is good now, I'm back to 100% successful trades and purchases with Smak. My C/U/R ONYX sets are now complete, except for the last year or two.
