Are all of you using the "Report this vendor" link on LD's vendor profile?

Seriously??? This has been all over the forum and all over the "Clearnet" for like over a month now!!!!!

I am sure SR staff is well aware of whats been going dont you think??

And from the posts I have seen when anyone complains to them its basicaly...

"You fucked up dude..we told you to never FE so its your problem not ours if you did"!!

Thats no way to run a business...not even an underground one!!!

First of all, no need to be argumentative toward me!  Second of all, I'm trying to understand why people see a warning about not FE'ing, do it anyway understanding the risks, and then blast SR for not giving them their money back when it goes badly ... even though SR warned never to FE b/c getting scammed was a serious possibility.

Also, again, no need to pick a fight with me - I'm trying to figure out how I can help, and so I'm trying to understand the situation better.

futura, you guys need to get in touch with SR Support and Vendor Support -- they are the only people who can looking into these matters and take action.  I wish I could do more in these cases, but only SR and Vendor Support have the ability to investigate and make these decisions. 

It's not down, but you may still need to contact their support team.

As far as I know as a new vendor you cannot request buyers to FE until you have conducted a certain number of transactions, I can't remember the exact number.

This is correct, and I believe it is 35 transactions ... if I recall correctly.

My being a trusted member here does not prevent me from pointing out when a user is lying to people.  I had no plans to "out" you about this until you posted this thread acting as if this vendor was some innocent person ... if you had admitted from the beginning that you were talking about yourself, then that would have been different.  Of course I'm not going to stay silent about something like this when you post this crap.

You weren't asking me for help - you were asking me why your account was banned and I told you.  Then you came here and tried to start a witchhunt for SR Staff for banning this vendor's account when you know EXACTLY why it was banned! 

I'm part of this community - you're damn right I will "out" people who are trying to abuse it.

You say I have no integrity or honesty.  So to you, integrity and honesty mean letting people misrepresent a situation in order to harm the community?  I don't think those words mean what you think they mean.

Don't worry, you will get your withdrawal.  All you need to do is get in touch with SR Support or Vendor Support, tell them the time you made the withdrawal, the amount you withdrew, and the address to which you were sending it ... they will be able to look it up and push it through manually, if necessary.

Proud of myself?  You're here pretending like you're just some concerned buyer whose favorite vendor had their account unfairly banned.  Which is bullshit, because in fact you are that vendor and you are pissed that your account was banned due to feedback manipulation. 

Why not let you keep the account?  Because no one can trust the feedback since you've already tampered with it!

Yep, if his vendor account was closed and you remained in escrow, you should be receiving a refund.
