Additional Comments? Scorch was doing the secret santa thing, and hastings changed their policy right in the middle of it. So scorch in order to make things right, worked his ass off to get a deal for me. Scorch seriously did one of the coolest, most generous things on the board. He went out of his way to make things right even though it wasnt his fault. Not only that, but he gift wrapped my game in GTA San Andres wrapping paper and even put his trademark avatar sticker on it as a signature. Scorch is awesome, and is defiently one of the coolest people ive met. Thanks bro!

Additional Comments?

As I always have to look out for my fellow St. Louis CAGs, onetrackmind had no luck in finding a FFXI kit for the PS2. I managed to find a number of them at the CC's in the area, since most of them happened to be hidden (hoarded by employees) or wrongly received into inventory. Therefore, as I found some, the first one went to onetrackmind.

Since it seemed silly to ship it cross-town, I worked out a F2F with OTM, and it made the deal the easiest possible one I've ever done. No shipping rocks. :D

As he always defines the standard for easy deals, this one was the easiest I've done, or ever done. More like this in the future would be great. Deal with OTM, you sure as hell won't go wrong.

Additional Comments?

It's always nice to go back to trading partners who make things so easy. waxhead was looking for a copy of Mechassault and I was trying to find something of his I could trade for it, though it was a little hard, due to the ridiculous Xbox library I have. I did manage to find NFSU out of his list, and we set up a trade for it. Shipped out a day or two later from each end.

After a few days, both games arrived in each other's possession without any problems. Simple, easy, and quick. Those are the trades I like to have.

Proof that lightning can strike twice in the same spot, and might do so again. Great guy, easy to deal with, look forward to the next time. Highly recommended.

Additional Comments?

OiBoy picked up one of the MGS3 copies I bought from KB.com, which I consider to be a personal coup of the highest sort, since they PM'd the B&M price after 10 minutes of conversation. 5 copies picked up, and I almost wish I bought 10. He PM'd me about a few seconds after I posted in the MGS3 thread, and we worked out a deal pretty quickly. He paid the same day they arrived in my possession, and it was shipped out the next day (a Saturday). Shockingly, it arrived three days later (and wasn't the only one).

This one was as easy the first one, painless on all sides. Heck of a nice guy, great CAG, top act all around. Very highly recommended.

Scorch was working on some Hastings 4-for-1 trades with me, and I had sent him a copy of Alias as one of the games to try and use. Unfortunately, the UPC was cut out of the game (for a EBGames.com rebate) and he couldn't trade it. So, I asked him to keep the game. Since he had my copy of Alias, I figured that I didn't need the guide for it, so I tossed it into an envelope and shipped it out to him. A few days later it arrived, and he was stunned.

It's the least I could do for someone who's done so much legwork in trying to get me some games on the cheap. Great guy, love dealing with him.

Scorch had posted that he was looking for some of the BB $0.01 guides, which I bundled into my order I placed on BB.com for the few guides I was looking for. I did in-store pickup and picked them the same day. Tossed them into a double-level padded envelope and shipped them out the next day. Arrived a few days later.

Another shock and surprise from Scorch when they arrived, and again, I felt it was payment for the additional legwork he was doing to try and get me some of the Hastings games.

Due to the issues with Hastings closing down their 4-for-1 deal, or at least being jackasses about it, I had thought it might take a bit longer to get some return on the games I sent to Scorch for the 4-for-1. Though, when I made it home last night, Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath was waiting on me, completely surprising me. And it was wrapped in GTA:SA wrapping paper, which was a very cool touch.

I know Scorch bent over backwards to try and make good on the Hastings deal that ended up going a bit south, through no fault of his own. With all his work and getting two games for what I sent him evened things out, so I'm glad that it all worked out for everyone.

He gets massive kudos for working through this whole thing to the end, and for that, I'm damn impressed. Highly recommended.

It's always nice to start someone trading here on the right foot, and that's what happened with ValkyrieVF-1S. He told me that he was interested in my Metal Arms (PS2) and wanted to know what we needed to do work out a deal. I walked him through the steps on it, including what he needed to do for getting a money order and how the process would work. Went without an incident, as he dropped the money order in the mail and it arrived after a few days. The game went out the next day and arrived after a few more days.

ValkyrieVF-1S is a nice guy, and he's off to a good start as a trader on CAG. Easy to work with, and it was flawless on all sides. I'm sure this is the first of a large number of trades for him. He's new, though I would doubt anyone would say that after this first one. Highly recommended.
