this isn't craft related, but it relates to someone i decided to trade with through craftgrrl, and i'm hoping all the craftgrrls (and boys) can help me out.
i arranged to trade with a livejournal user a sundress and a book for something else. but then she asked for money instead. i was a bit hesitant, but agreed to in the end. i sent a money order and everything, but she never sent me anything back. i emailed her asking why, and she said she was moving into a new dorm, and she'd send it out the next friday, so i said fine. friday came and went and no word of the package. i emailed her again asking when she'd send it, and she never responded.
i posted in her livejournal, but she didn't respond to that either.
i don't know what to do, because i don't apreciate someone taking money from me like that and not even having the curtesy to lie about what hapened, and say it got lost in the mail. *rolls eyes*
does anyone have any ideas?
it's things like that, that make me never want to do mail trades again.

I just wanted to say that so not all craftgrrls will assume fraud in other situations.
This, on the other hand, sounds very suspicious. Especially her "exscuses". Heh. I'd try the mail fraud thing, but in the future I wouldn't pay before I got the product.
