<p>[QUOTE="Drusus, post: 427078, member: 6370"]I had a similar experience, not on this forum but on the other coin forum (that I know scottishmoney is also a member or...people instead of talk <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> ) A certain person from Spain was asking people if they had license plates from different locals as he was collecting them, I told him I had a stack of old Texas plates I would send him. We made an agreement that I would send the plates, tell him what the shipping amounted to, he would send me something of equal value.</p><p> </p><p>The shipping was quite a bit as the plates are heavy and there were more than one, but I was completely honest about how much it cost me and even left it up to him as to what to send, it didnt need to be equal, just something interesting. To date I have received nothing from him. I saw that he visited the forum here and there and even posted once or twice since so I sent him an e-mail, he said he was going to do it...again...nothing. So I am out the money it took to send it. I chalked it up to 'my bad' and moved on. I know scottishmoney is a stand up guy, nice and generous and sends what he said he will send....</p><p> </p><p>Although it wasn't a trade situation, I probably owe him SOMETHING as he sent me a nice example of a Portuguese coin I liked a lot and asked nothing in return. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
[QUOTE="Drusus, post: 427078, member: 6370"]I had a similar experience, not on this forum but on the other coin forum (that I know scottishmoney is also a member or...people instead of talk :) ) A certain person from Spain was asking people if they had license plates from different locals as he was collecting them, I told him I had a stack of old Texas plates I would send him. We made an agreement that I would send the plates, tell him what the shipping amounted to, he would send me something of equal value. The shipping was quite a bit as the plates are heavy and there were more than one, but I was completely honest about how much it cost me and even left it up to him as to what to send, it didnt need to be equal, just something interesting.
