User contacted me looking to buy $20 gift card for $16.

I contacted the user on skype and sent the code along with a picture of the code (All i've got)
He then started making no sense about how he doesn't want it or something?

I don't know he makes no sense but he hasn't sent my BTC.



Kind regards,
Jack,

One moment you send me the code but I have not claimed because it comes to accuse me that I have cheated

 Have the funds disappeared from your gift card?

The user sent me the code is true but I have complications and I do not want to make the deal and I have not claimed and he comes to tell me that I have stolen

 Well you can understand how he might be worried if he already transferred the code to you, can't you?
Promise him you wont use it and swear on your mother's grave.

 There you go Tryhard1996 -  you can resell the card without worry.  DavidXXXX seems sincere enough.
Also, you should consider using escrow for future transactions.

You may have been scammed.

 Well it wasn't much of a stretch for me to say that after looking at your profile.  Only time will tell now.

I can't take this guys word. He should send the money and resell the BTC if he doesn't want it.

It's not right what he's done.

Because it hurts because I have not used and I will not use that card for those problems

Why don't people not look at trust profiles before doing deals here?  And if they are looked at, why don't they take heed?  And if heed is taken, why don't people use escrow with members who have bright,  shiny red trust pages?  Goddamn, the legitimate paint jobs are not done in the name of fine art.  It's a warning to all you would-be scamees.
