quick q for the fine people here
did any one else get orders canceled from frank matthews?
i placed a small order with him when bitcoins were going for top dollar sure enough it sat in processing then got canceled
well frank that was my first order with you and most certainly my last
-
Yes, there are some vendors who have been cancelling orders due to the fluctuating value of BTC. Not much you can do really; hope you didn't lose too much. :(
-
na not a lot at all
but i thought i would give this vendor a try oh well not to be
i just wont be ordering again
this vendor had his listings unhedged so has been coining it in these last few weeks
swings and roundabout,you should take the rough with the smooth :D
-
Well there were some serious questions about his MDMA recently, so if that's what you were ordering it might be a good thing that he cancelled.
-
Don't feel too bad, I have a vendor who has decided to not cancel my order, but also refuses to accept it. It's just hanging there so even though he still has live auctions and logs in every day. I suspect since Bitcoins were worth $230 when I placed my order he is simply going to leave it there for 4 days before I'm allowed to cancel it myself.
Very, very dirty.

Vendors who have their orders "unhedged" are cancelling them after the BTC exchange rate plummeted because they would take a loss if they shipped product worth less than the BTC they receive. Thus, the buyer takes the loss by receiving the lower valued BTC back. I personally lost half of what was in my account because a vendor did this.
