I know the feedback forum is new and so far it seems to be doing a GREAT job keeping people informed... one thing i was wondering if possible... could we have a forum warning people of certain sellers.... This forum should be Totally admin and Mod controlled that way we know its not just some randon guy post crap about someone cause they dont like them... Let me give an example of how we do this on a forum im an admin of...

Ex. John Doe sold a Jimmy D a Banks Intercooler for 1000 dollars thru paypal. John Doe never shipped the item and closed his acct so Jimmy is out 1k.
After John Doe prooves how everything transpired he submits all information he has to a certain "designated admin or form". The powers that be review everything and then in a forum only Admins and Mods can post in and control Post the all the Information they have of John Doe... IE Name, Addy, IP(black out last sequence of numbers for privact reasons), emails used etc....

This works like a charm on our forum for member to do a quick reference on sellers to be wary of and has saved i know members of our forum thousands of dollars...

This is just a suggestion i have to help protect us a lil more.. it seems more and more people are tryin to rip others off... this isnt a fail saife system but it is a very good start and is invaluable to those who do alot of purchasing online which A LOT of us do.... thanks for takin the time to read this

this has been asked many times. i like the idea also. if it doesnt go through, just look into the member selling and see if he/she has been here for a while and active. that will tell you a little bit. also when paying be sure to use paypal with a credit card so it can be disputed and your money returned.

Using a third party for selling and bying is another thing that can be done to help prevent this kind of thing.. Only use it with someone you trust.. Say i was to buy something, i ask the seller to send it to another person, who then notifies me that they had recieved the package, i in turn send my money Via however the payment methoid was discussed, then the middle man send me my package, it may take a bit more time for shipping, and a few more dollars in shipping cost, but in the end both members are satisfied.. if the seller never sends the package, he doesnt get his money.. simple as that..
