I bought three cards, received $200 instead of the full $360, was told he was out of stock and that I would receive the remaining $160 when he acquired more.

It has been several days and I have not received the remaining $160.  When I receive it I will update.

Hes already moved on to a new name https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=956756.0 he was probably dan as well

my card is now showing as zero. pls advise.

i've been waiting for the past 4 days for replacement....

yeah, just take it as a lesson he`s prob not going to give you replacements if its pass 24 hrs.

That's for sure. He probably spent the money he got on bubblegum or drugs and couldn't afford to replace the bad cards.  Cheesy  Most of these sellers probably buy cards from scammers themselves promising to make them lots of money then they get scammed by the scammers and can't replace the bad cards. They probably got screwed like we do but they deserve it.   Wink

this guy is indeed a scammer. sent him .5 BTC for half the payment of some cards, and then he stopped responding.

How many of you actually sent money first without an escrow to a newbie with a negative trust? Think i should be making some newbie accounts and start selling air. I heard there's one born every minute but c'mon

You did (and it also went to zero). Who do you source your hot air from? Cheesy  This sellers neg trust wasn't from a failed purchase, it was just from one of those "protectors of the threads" who negs everyone selling SB cards.  Sometimes ya just gotta take a chance.  Win some, lose some?  Cheesy  Besides, I'm still holding out a little hope to get my card replaced from this scoundrel.

Bought from him through Hotmail, not sure if he's going to come through with it. If he does, I'll be sure to update, but if he doesn't I'll just dispute the payment through paypal.

This area is up for grabs! PM me if you're interested.

Touche, but in my defense he did replace my card and i wasn't really expecting to get it but just to prove a point. Unfortunately later people PMed me how they paid him $300 and he didn't deliver.

  Smiley  And your point is well taken and 100% correct. I got jammed by a couple other "newbie" sellers recently.  The way I see it is sometimes you have to suspend reality just a bit and take a shot and hope for the best. Life's a gamble, sometimes you win and sometimes you lose.  That's why I like to visit Atlantic City & Vegas. Wink
