Positive feedback for:

JayEH
Lemstar

All of whom bought games from me with great communication and fast payment.

Positive feedback for Sir Garbageman. Very speedy delivery, plus I completely forgot I bought something from him, so I came home to a present! Plus, everything was in great shape, so even better!

I've got a copy of Wolfenstein for PS4 and I'm looking to trade it for a copy of Watch Dogs for PS4. I figure we'll each pay our own shipping and we'll just sort of swap.

I'm located in the US so if anyone is interested let me know, we can totally make this work. Thanks!

Thank you for giving this community a heads up. Yuripaw was very active in the BST threads and it's very strange to see how things went down. Hope everyone involved gets their money/items back.

Bii on the other hand is the man. So there's shining pillars of the community like him and SmokeMaxX to keep in mind when we're feeling a bit down at this news.

Haha you're too kind. I'm just your average trader. I will say that out of everywhere that I buy and sell stuff, this is my favorite place to do transactions. Minus a few bad apples, I feel pretty safe trading here. It's a testament to how good this community is that we are as shocked as we are when something bad happens.

More like ~$70 in Amazon.com/Nintendo eShop money. Must've been worth it to him. Definitely not worth it to me.


I think I'm the only one involved. Unfortunately I won't be getting my items back because they were digital codes that were already redeemed. It's unfortunate because he messaged me first to do the trade (and scam) even though under his main account, I regularly helped him get PSN codes for no upcharge when he needed them.

This makes it even more messed up. I think I've done business with Yuripaw too.

Community Warning Alert

Last week I was contacted by SmokeMaxX with regards to a potential scam involving the junior member ChieSatonaka. The transaction involved an exchange of PSN codes for an Amazon Gift Card. The PSN codes turned out to be invalid. He turned to me for help as ChieSatonaka was banned at the time. I promised to open an investigation into this.

What we found was somewhat troubling, and hence I'm making this disclosure to the community here to hopefully give everyone a heads up. ChieSatonaka was most likely a dupe account of Yuripaw, a long time member here with quite a strong reputation in the B/S/T threads. Recently he requested a permanent ban citing personal issues. Shortly after, he started using this new ChieSatonaka account. After the transaction in question, ChieSatonaka requested a permanent ban from another moderator, also citing personal issues. After this, Yuripaw requested via Twitter for his permanent ban to be lifted. It was timely because we were in the middle of investigating this issue, and hence we reached out to him to explain his side of the story and to clear up any misunderstandings here. Instead of replying, it appears that he has deleted both his Twitter and Steam accounts.

While we may never know what truly transpired behind the scenes, or why a long time member would do something like this, the evidence is clearly not in his favor. Since many people here might have had past dealings with him, and might still be in contact with him, I think it is fair to disclose the results of our investigation in increase awareness that he might be a liability. There isn't much more we can do, and since both accounts in question will remain banned, there will be no further action on our part.

All that for like $50 fucking dollars. I would think trading and selling amongst fellow Gaffers long term would be worth more than $50 especially for someone like him that was active in this thread. I know it has been for me. What a ridiculous fool.

Limited Edition Animal Crossing 3DS XL + Animal Crossing: New Leaf digital - Like New Condition - $205 shipped via PayPal Gift

As a bonus, it'll also comes with:

- Preinstalled Hori Screen Protectors
- Additional Hori Screen Protector set
- Club Nintendo reversible pouch


Bought this for my wife back (who took these pictures) when it released and she eventually just kinda fell out of love with Animal Crossing itself, which was the sole game she played. So, throwing it up here for my GAF bros. In regards to the price, keeping in mind what these things are currently going for on eBay and such, I'd say it's fair.

Check my reputation if curious. I ship immediately as I work literally a minute down the road from USPS here on my base.

I have payed 90+ $ for 3 PS4 games to him months ago and never received the games. He did not reply to my PMs and said he is having personal issues and i got an answer for one of the emails i have sent by his father.
We thought the games were lost by USPS and he said he would send me a digital PSN code but than got banned and i could not contact him since than.
I got fooled by his positive feedback actually. Anyway i learned my lesson not to pay paypal gift to someone i have never made a transaction with.

Did you pay via credit card? If so do a charge-back.

PSN US cards $20 and $10 both, or $50 one

looking for code only, by e-mail, it's kinda urgent, want to get in time until PSN flash sale ends. I will pay with paypal, also would prefer $20+$10, as it saves me some money.
Alternatively, I would take info on trusted site that sells codes by e-mail and doesn't charge extra for it.

Edit: Oops. Forgot to mention I'm selling $20 PSN codes for $18 each.

Would anyone help me out on purchasing and trading MK9:Komplete and Injustice:Ultimate from steam (midweek madness) for any $15 purchase(s) (steam key) on GMG? I've been waiting to buy those two games on GMG, but it's like they have the same 8 games on sale for the past few weeks.

Just choose what game or games you want that add up to $15 dollars (if a coupon is available then even better for you, just get something that ends up being $15 bucks at the end) and then we can just do that good ol' steam chat trade. Got some feedback on the Sell/Buy trade. Send me a PM if interested.

I think at some point it definitely becomes worth paying a few dollars in fees to protect yourself for high value purchases. It will vary for every person, but purchases over twenty dollars I start to seriously think about going the payment route in PayPal.

And if the seller is resisting that, you have to ask yourself why.

Yea, even Smoke had dealt with him previously according to his above posts. If it's anything significant it's best to just ship the extra couple dollars.

That sucks to hear. I definitely encourage buyers to remain vigilant even when buying from trusted sellers. If a buyer ships something physically and refuses to provide tracking, definitely let others know. That is HIGHLY UNUSUAL. For international shipments, I always purchase insurance if possible -or- tell buyers that I am not responsible for packages lost in transit if they refuse to pay for insurance (but I always provide a tracking number that at the very least can be tracked until it leaves the country). Unfortunately transactions will always be a trust game. You can be screwed by a trusted seller or you can have a perfect transaction with a brand new seller. I'm sorry for your loss. I know in the states, you can do a chargeback through most banks even if you draft the paypal gift payment out of your bank account. That's why I tell people they shouldn't worry about doing a paypal gift payment. I don't know how it is with your country though.

It's definitely worth it for piece of mind. Most sellers would never refuse any payment as long as you're willing to pay the fees so that the seller receives the full amount. There are times that I've been hesitant to receive a payment where the buyer has paid the fees because something seemed off about the purchase (like the buyer offered to pay 1.5x the asking price), but I always did and nothing ever came out of it. Just be careful because a lot of shady sellers will delay, delay, delay communication with you until you're outside the chargeback window. If a seller ever seems to take his/her time shipping the item or answering messages, I'd definitely alert the community if the chargeback window nears closing.

I think the worst part about this whole situation is that it's made some people a lot more cautious about dealing with other members of this great community. For that, I hate Yuripaw/Chie. I've done hundreds of transactions on here over the course of several years. It's taken until this point for me to get scammed. Although I agree that traders should always be cautious, I also know that this community has a very low scam rate and that bad transactions are the exception, not the norm. If you are a new trader, please don't be afraid to trade with others on here. We have a great community but unfortunately there have been a few bad apples.

I don't know if this is of any help to you guys but he's still using GameFAQS by the name of Ockman which seems to be his PSN as well, Still uses Yuripaw for Miiverse by the looks of it.
