Here is an example

[The Master]

There is a guy name e-man67 selling a box of Partagas 898V for 220.00. The guy has bought 3 times and sold once. Now of course I don't know him, but is he a known commodity anywhere? Does he post a lot here? Has anyone herfed with him?  Is he on any other sites with a good trading history?

Is he asking for old established people to send their end first or is he willing to send his end first to established people?

These are the questions everyone should be asking themselves before they do business with him. Wade keeps telling everyone to do their due diligence. That means you ask a lot of questions before you do business with him. You check his references, you go to the site he says he is a member of. You DO NOT just blindly send him money.

Also anyone who wants you to pay them with PAY PAL GIFTED and does not offer you the opportunity to pay a little extra to be protected, you should be wary of.

Unless you know the person well, do not use PP gifted, you have no protection.

I know he is on BOTL (and has a 100% FT there).

Harris, I have a question for you. You cited his trading history here being 3 times. Where are you getting that info? My guess (although I could be wrong) is that you are looking at past posts/ TF. Keep in mind that Wade deletes threads in the TSBC after 30 days and that most people here (in my experience at least) don't leave trader feedback.

That all being said, keep up the good work!

I clicked on his name and saw 4 trader comments. Do trader comments get deleted after 30 days?

[jadeg001]

No, but there seems to be an issue here about actually leaving feedback on people's profiles. For instance, if you click on my name I only have 3 comments. I have probably bought from 20 or so people here.

For full disclosure, I'm sure that I have also forgotten to leave feedback on more than one occasion.

I made sure to ask everyone I did business with to leave a comment.

No worries here guys. I am a member of cigar asylum, icc, botl, and cf. Bought and sold many times...if anyone needs references it is never a problem.

[The Master]

Perfect, he is well known and has references. See how easy that was.

As far as leaving feedback. Anyone who trades is obligated to leave feed back on both ends of the trade. You should never have to ask for that. A good trader will always leave feedback.

Also, fwiw, while threads are wiped after 30 days in the TBSC, one can always click on a member's profile and read through all of their posts.  Not hard to tell which ones were OP's from FS threads.
