It all sounds great in theory Alex but i think your underestimating the costs and potential issues involved. Bank guarantees are a pain in the ass to set up and what happens if i send you the card and the it goes missing in between you and the buyer?
I know its not perfect but anyone heard of paypal? I know Bolli lost out to Steve but if he followed the Paypal processes he most likely would not be in his current situation.
I think Bolli waited until the claim window was closed. It was too late to go ahead with one.

Paypal is the last person to solve your problems. They just shift the problem to the seller to the buyer or vice versa so that one side cops it all. No mediation or middle ground at all. Worst part of it is they still take a fee. Read thread set up the Matt or garnettfan4life.
I understand that but my point more is if im struggling to trust a person in a card trade why then do i trust someone else who has set themselves up as a middle man?
the distinct difference between Shaun and Steve... Steve is known to have had internet activity since... Purchase via Ebay... But has anyone seen ANY movement from Shaun at all...?? I hate to say it, but how do we even know he is still with us...???
Im not condoning either of them, but Steve for some reason is CLEARLY and PROVEN to be avoiding the situation, while Shaun has all but vanished!
Well a bit of an update, a member here pointed me towards a couple of online gambling sites and identified a member there called shaunmc2910 who seemed to live in the area that smc2910 did so I left a message. Got me a thinking so I did a search of ebay members for something like shaunmc2910 (Shauns ebay userid was bigman something) and I located an active ebay member smc2910. A check of that users ID history indicated it was bigman something.......... so our Shaun and a message left for him there.

Weird, i've had a beer with Shaun and Ben before just up the road but haven't heard or seen anything from him in quite a while. What date was the latest eBay activity?
Checked and latest eBay activity is late April-Early May. May actually be something a little more serious than a runner?

Looks like he has been pretty quite since April. When did you deal go through (or should i say when did you send him the card).
Tracked the last activity on the online gambling site to 11 Aug 11.

Owen, u have it ar$e about mate, I paid him for 2 SWG6 sketches and he skipped with the dollars.
But getting back to the mods and admin. It is a bloody hard job and the guys here do a good job.
Could the buyer and seller send money/cards to a neutral person on big deals like a middle man
