Do you think this is fair?
I have 2 trades that are going bad. One was supposed to pay paypal, one was actually for a PIB/PIF. I still have my end of the paypal trade.
The first one, for paypal, was finalized (I sent my paypal addy to her) on 11/3. After days of waiting for payment, I e-mailed her again about the trade. She responded on 11/10 that I'd never sent her my pp addy. I forwarded her the original e-mail showing I HAD sent her the info, all on same day 11/10, and then waited again. I still have not received payment.
The second one, was supposed to send 2 items for 2 PIB/PIFs on swaps board. I have not yet received either. She said she would combine them in one package, which is pretty common practice, so I thought nothing of it. This has been going on since mid to end of October, and she also said she didn't receive my addy, so I again forwarded the e-mail showing I HAD sent it to her. I am not really OUT anything on this one, but when should I leave bad feedback? How long do I give it?
As you can see, I'm a pretty patient person when it comes to trades. So, should I relist the first one, and then refund the trader's payment if it comes since she's had plenty of time, or what? And what do I do about the PIF/PIB one? Do I just write it off as a loss, or leave bad feedback? Do I post on swaps to let people know she owes me?
Any advice welcome!

1|1|On the first one I'd relist if you can and refund if you have to I don't think the two week rule applies to that trade as who wants to wait two weeks for |teener|teenerzacsneenee@yahoo.com|11:56:42|11/12/2008|
the trade to take place I also don't think negative feedback is necisary on that one tho if you keep your own do not trade with list this person should go on it
On the second one even tho it is a pif/pib thing you can report the person to Garnette as her end of a deal was not sent you should also use the feedback to let others know

2|2|I agree with Tina....and the PIB/PIF could be considered a swap (it does take place on the Swaps board), so it could be reported to Garnette....and yes, leave appropriate feedback for her here. |saint6811|waylan@comcast.net|17:26:08|11/12/2008|
