Updated to reflect an additional victim of MissingKirby. He has not responded to my messages either.

I think a trustworthy trader rating could be valuable. If the karma and trustworthiness of the users who rated the trades was listed by their rating it would help me decide how viable the rating really is. For example, if Joe-user got an untrusted trader mark but then right below it i saw it was from Kuberr who has -54 karma and 12 untrusted trader marks,  it would erase most of my worry. We have a pretty good handle on who the "Richards" are around here.
I like this idea!

Users accused: MissingKirby

Victims: myself, DirtyMustachio,

Summary: We finalized a trade July 24th. He then gave a personal reason for being unable to send on Aug 1st.. He has recieved my cards, disappeared, & I noticed he was online today & has yet to reply to my inquiry about if my deathrite is in the mail or not.

Preliminary Evidence: available, & can be supplied.


I posted a similar complaint a while ago. I've traded with people who have neg karma and are great traders. Kirby is different, and often when people use the hospital as an excuse for several people in their family and themselves: I call bs.

He is clearly an impulse trader on this site who can't follow through with a trade or possibly found a better deal locally and lies to those who are putting cards in escrow for him, saying their trade will go through.

I highly recommend not trading with him, he's a flake. He's probably lurking under a different name too...pretty common on this site...

Always check rep for traders and don't be afraid to ask a new person for being the first sender, and newbies: read people's post. Most adults will follow through, most issues here have been with people under 20 it seems.

Nothing going to come of this I guess

I think it's safe to say he's not showing back up. I'll be adding him to the untrusted traders post. I'm afraid I can't do much outside of that.

I am requesting that any victims here send me Missingkirby's address so I can add it to my private list of known scammer's addresses.

I myself have almost traded with MissingKirby, but he was under another name and said something about a hospital.

Good to know...a year later...

Yeah, he pulled a solid mlerner right there. Good to know he's still around though.
