Pretty sure I was just robbed of a frog

[limnologist]

I made a deal with Ornate53, I told him that I would give him my male cranwelli if he gave me a couple of female axolotls, and he agreed. I shipped my frog to him on monday May 12, and he said he mailed his axies the same day. It has been a week, I have no axies and he is not replying. Maybe he ran into a problem and im just being paranoid? idk what to do.

That sounds bad!!! hope he holds to his promise!!!

[Tongue Flicker]

Oh honey, sweetie, sounds like a sham :-×

You could ask a photo of his shipping details/receipt if he is indeed telling the truth

Although there is a member that goes by ornate53 and he/she was in forum the last 24 hours; there is no activity (threads, posts, or blogs) from said member in this forum Cayton. How this this trade came to happen?

If the animals were sent, there should be a shipping receipt and the sender should share a copy and begin a tracking request. Also, would check with your Pacman shipper and track to collect date and time it was delivered. Hope you can communicate with ornate53 again and find a solution to this issue. Good luck !

Following along...

Lets hope the other member is honest and trustworthy and your shipment arrives, safe and sound. Though, I am concerned about the length of time in transit if shipped.

Try to reach your sender and request a receipt.

I work tomorrow am til pm. I'll check in the end of the week.

[limnologist]

I should get a receipt and I would've definitely asked him already if he would reply to my past 6 messages. Also, I don't know how to track the package I sent. Still though, maybe Im just being paranoid and the sir ran into some problems somehow. Though it HAS been a full week since he said he had shipped the goods.

I would hope there is just some issue communicating It doesn't sound good though. In the future, I would recommend not making a trade with a zero post member. That's disappointing, will still hope it works out somehow though.

[Tongue Flicker]

Oh zero post member?! That makes it more suspicious @_@ i'll give the other guy the benefit of the doubt

I sure do hope it was just a communication error. I don't want to accuse someone of something they didn't do. And I want the frog to be safe, and to get those female axolotls.

Yeah I don't know why I didn't even think of that :/

Sorry to hear this, hopefully it will work out for the be.st

Still wondering how this trade with a non-posting member happened ! Did you guys meet and traded at another forum or did Ornate53 contacted you directly via PM? If so; can you please PM me all the traffic between you too? Thank you !

[Tank Girl]

Woah, this is really bad. If it were me I would be on the next bus to wherever this guy lives to get my frog back (although probably not the best idea!). It's shocking someone would do this when live animals are involved.

Hope this somehow gets resolved!! Please keep us updated Cayton!

I sent the person a letter asking about the frog 2 days ago. In the end, although he was my pet, he was just a $20 frog. If things don't work out, then there's not much worth doing :/

[Ayeejustin01]

Lol, Ornate 53 just contacted interested in trading bullfrog for 3 toads. Thanks for the heads up though. Now i know not to trust him.

[Frogman1031]

That is really strange. Trying to set up another trade when you still haven't resolved the first one? Suspicious. I dont want to jump to conclusions but it seems like we have a regular frog thief.

Could you please forward me his PM with the trade offer, thank you !
