Last year in September, I was selling a bunch of my extra things at low prices due to upcoming moves, one of which was over seas. I didn't want all my doubles going into storage, so I was just trying to clear out.
sugarapplecutie28 contacted me regarding some rainbow dash merchandise I had, however the postage from Australia was more than twice the asking price of the items so I offered a trade. She took over 2 weeks for her to get back to me with pictures of her side of the trade, and then another 2 weeks before she confirmed she was happy with the trade (she kept umming and ahhing and asking me for extra things).
I posted of my side of the trade with an extra exclusive RD magnet from my own collection. Then I promptly forgot about it. In January around the time that the thread about her appeared on the old arena, I realised that I had never received my end of the trade (I blame the general stress I was under because of finishing uni, my dog dying, and moving). I pmed her asking if she got my end of the trade (as she never let me know) and if she had proof of purchase. I got one reply saying yes she had received my end, and no she didn't have proof of purchase, and then then the arena went down.
When the arena came back she sent sporadic replies to me offering to pay due to not having proof of postage, or a new trade item, but never actually paying or offering me anything to trade. I am down around $35 all up
I currently don't expect anything from her. But I am starting this thread so people are aware of what happened as a warning about dealing with her. And maybe she'll see it and actually pay me.

Sorry to hear this Xeevee.
Sugarapplecutie28 is on my facebook. If you have FB i can PM you her name and perhaps you might be able to work this out through there? Not everyone can access the arena regularly but most people have FB access from their mobiles?

You can try. I feel like as this has been going on for 9 months now, even if you don't check regularly we should have had it sorted out. I've given her my paypal details at least 2 times now.
-
Sorry to hear about your troubles! :(
-
Sorry to hear about your troubles! :(
Me too. Sadly she didn't took more responsibility or didn't communicate more with you. Don't promise pay due when you never actually gonna pay :/
-
I am sorry to hear that this has been going on for 9 months with no resolve.
She hasn't signed in here since March 25th but I would try sending another PM or wait to see if Spinky can get ahold of her. Hopefully she will try and resolve this because you should not be out the money or merchandise.
-
I have sent her a PM on facebook tonight as she last logged on there on the 9th. I told her there is this thread and that she might want to jump on here and clear the air. xo
Good luck! :)
-
I hope everything gets sorted :)
-
Oh, I'm looking for sugarapplecutie28 too. I paid for some items last year, but she forgot to send them. I'm not certain if she got the PM with my address or not, but I haven't received my items from her either :(
-
Sora, that is no good :( Have you had any sort of contact with her recently?
-
Hm, I mean I purchased from her last year at ebay.
I will check my older feedbacks and will try to sent her a message over ebay to tell her to log in and to sort out things with you. :)
-
Wow xeevee and Sora you've both been waiting a heck of a long time :crazy:
Thanks Spinky and Stern - if you could contact sugarapplecutie that would be great :hug: I know she had some RL problems, as well as some problems with item getting returned to her at one point last year.. but she does normally sort out her transactions. I hope that she comes back to resolve these issues soon
-
I have heard back from her on FB and she has asked me to let everyone know she will try pop on in the next 48 hours. I know about her RL situation and it wasn't a pretty situation to get through but i know she's been making progress and i know she wants to resolve this. Hopefully we'll hear from her soon.

Thanks Spinky!
Hope she is doing ok and is able to get things headed in the right direction soon. RL can really kick us in our butts sometimes.
-
I am 100% patient with real life problems. And you know what, if she could have given me some proof she shipped my end I would have racked it up to a lost in the mail thing and left it at that. I am a pretty easy going trader under normal circumstances. But this has not been a fun transaction at any point for me.
-
That's great to hear, thank you.
I don't mind waiting, I do remember she was very busy with RL issues myself!
-
Hoping a resolution can be found! :)
-
Thanks for making her aware of the situation Spinky :) Im very glad she answered you :bigups: I'm looking forward to seeing this resolved, and I hope things are improving a bit for SAC IRL too

Hello I am here finally. I want to apologize to xeevee and say I want to resolve the situation and understand your frustration. The past 2 years have been rough on me. Around the time of the trade I had recently left my husband.i apologize for not being online all the time xevee. I didn't do any of that on purpose. during that time as well I learned that my husband did indeed have an affair and I even learned some awful details. It hit me very hard and I was very depressed. Leaving him was hard enough but that made it even harder. I couldn't think about anything else. I'm really sorry I couldn't respond sooner and resolve the problem quicker. It just wasnt a priority at the time. When life comes at you it hits hard.i made a few other mistakes with some other members and I'm very sorry for that. I didn't mean to hurt anyone or make anyone angry at me. I want thinking clearly at all. The memories are still haunting me. I think I cried everyday at the time. I just wasnt online like I was before. I used to come on here everyday. I was always a good member until my problems got worse. Th ings haven't been easy for me but I do want to apologize to everyone. xeevee can email me if I can't respond here. Sora please email me about the ebay transaction you are referring to. I'm really sorry xeevee and hope you can pforgive me in time
-
Thanks for getting in here, I will however need your email address if you want me to email you.
-
Thanks for posting sugarapplecutie :hug: I'm very sorry to hear how awful real life was for you for a time :sad: I know when RL hits you hard it can be tough to keep up with things online -
I'm sure you'll be able to work through this with Xeevee and sora though :) Please keep us updated
