CanaryInTheMine refuses to pay despite him being the winning bidder of my auction:

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/auction-16-bfl-chip-credits-235864

Requesting a scammer tag for CanaryInTheMine.

Thanks.

Sorry, but check this thread: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/garr255werner-auction-shilling-238474

You will learn that in these forums auctions are nothing but "a device to assist in price negotiation" (literal quote from the admin). You can aritificially raise the price with alt-accounts (aka "shill bidding"), not honor bids, not honor winners, etc. etc. etc. and you will never get a scammer tag.

The only way for CanaryInTheMine to get a scammer tag would be him to have signed a binding GPG contract with you, stating that he would have honored his bids if he won.

Sounds like a joke? Unfortunately I agree but these are not my rules, but the official forum's policy regarding auctions and scammer tags.

+101 It's mornin'! Mmmm, smell that coffee.

just send canary the damn codes and get paid. these stupid bfl discount codes are near worthless now (due to the thousands being dumped, and the fact that there are no chips to sell at the moment, and the fact you have to order 100 chips min when they are available).

You delaying your end of the deal just causes their price to drop even more.

Did you send him the codes?

He shouldn't have to send the codes first. Canary should be paying vortex first and then the codes would be sent. That's how it should work. The offer of escrow has been noted, so if there's problems why is it not being used? Not honouring your side of the deal is just stupid.

Scammer? No.
Making a mountain of a molehill and not going through a deal just because there's a small disagreement on who goes first? Yes.

Both of you are just as bad as each other, vortex for creating a scam report when there was no actual scam and for something that could have been dealt with over PM and a mutual agreement on escrow and Canary for not honouring his side of the deal just because he doesn't want to go first. Use escrow if you don't want to go first, it's not hard.
