Topic: Chances to win Canadian Maples, .1-.4 bets [UPDATE 12/17 - Last chance!] (Read 3178 times)

No excuse for my delay. Item was sent days ago, with a bonus silver round in fantastic condition. Doesn't make up for any of the latency.

Apologies to Digi, Nel, and TTBit.

Oh no bad communication?  How could this happen? 

Thank you for taking care of the matter on your end nelisky.

I'm one of the responsible parties for TAABL.

Thank you very much for reporting this, I have paused the Pipe Pick in question and will try to contact BitCoiner2012 regarding this issue.

Update again, Bitcoiner reported he had lost the coin he intended to send me, but was going to send an older vintage coin in its place to which I agreed. That was on Jan 22nd.
I still have not received the coin, Bitcoiner2012 has not been logged in since Feb 18th. I have sent him another PM and await his reply. I will give that another 2 weeks at most and then proceed with a scammer accusation if no contact or resolution has been made.

I suspect it would also be prudent to contact the operators of the raffle games, advise of the situation and suggest they should refund or pause Bitcoiner2012's current raffle on their site.
Does anyone know who is responsible for TAABL?

Update: I have been back in contact with Bitcoiner2012 and we are working towards a resolution.

Serious individuals that do regular business with me have my number (which I would be glad to provide such information to certain individuals, particularly those I have done thousands in business prior, I would prefer to keep it that way - but I am never opposed to new business). I understand, now is a time that is VERY busy with me. Literally every day is a new challence working to open this facility and time is ticking and money.

Same applies for our deals that I experience latency, which is unforgivable. Trust me, I will make everything well with all, as with any time in the past. I am not EPIKS. I am not a rogue user. I am here and will not be leaving.

Thanks for your time and understanding. New users, feel free to be cautious, that is the nature of thus business because of questionable delays on my part by numerous users. I do not mind that, as that has been the case.

I look forward to all sorts of business and apologize if any of this is rude. Just let me know what you are thinking.

It did take that...

Actually if you want the whole backstory (or at least more o' it) that user posted a "-1" review in the honest traders thread which I saw and recommended the spam-bomb to attract his attention.

Full disclosure: personally Bitcoiner and I have not done a transaction.  I got a bit of a slippery feeling while pming him about amazon gift cards around the time I signed up here.

Thanks underminer, I did see the situation with the $750 GC and am happy to see it was resolved, albeit not in a timely manner, and it took public posts within his own threads to apparently entice any action. (multiple PM's ignored as in my case) Hopefully this will bring bitcoiners attention back to this outstanding obligation and we can all move on.

Yeah bitcoiner is a bit of an unreliable nutcase but I do believe he will eventually come through and pay you what he owes you.

At one point somebody sent him $750 and the sender didn't get a response for days on end--he eventually refunded money apparently once he became aware of the situation.  (How you lose track of somebody else's $750 is beyond me.)

Still awaiting receipt of this coin. I have sent multiple PM's to Bitcoiner2012 and have heard no response although he has been on-line multiple times since I sent those PM's.

Posting this as fair warning to anyone else who might try and bid on your current raffle which is ongoing.

Please respond to my PM as far as the status of the coin, have you shipped it? It has been almost a month.

If no response in another week or so I will pursue a scam accusation. Thanks.

Congrats once again, winning is always fun isn't it? Don't forget everyone to always thanks the guys at TAABL.NET for hosting these fine events for us to enjoy on both ends as winners, players, and rafflers.

Thanks everyone once again for participating in these ongoing (and hopefully expanding) raffles.

Hey thanks BitCoiner2012, to confirm I sent the winning bet for this game, and contacted BitCoiner2012 as soon as I noticed the game had been won. Sent a signed message from my BTC address and he has verified it. Expecting one 1oz 2012 Maple shipped sometime next week.

Thanks for a cool little raffle, may be tempted to throw some bets towards this next one now too!

Thanks for that!

New update:

12/22 Last game finished, winner has contacted me and verified identity. Feel free to post here if you'd like to let everyone know! Congrats on winning a maple! I have no plans, due to the holidays and a little early difficulty with signing/verifying, to ship out anytime sooner than Wednesday, but still a nice gift for new years for a small bet! Thanks for playing! The new Pick 3 has started and has reached 4 bets at (1PipemCUjxq9LKww7CaLWUMeGVZL3bD3VM) so far.

The issue has been resolved in the form of a refund as BitCoiner2012 has outlined in another thread.
Thanks to all involved for your help in resolving this issue.

(Update 12/21) Contact with BitCoiner2012 has indeed been re-established, and I will update the thread once the issue is resolved.

BEWARE: BitCoiner2012 is ignoring my numerous PMs and has not delivered his end of bargain for $750 Amazon GC.

There is new information and the Pick 3 game has gone live, I have reflected the OP to represent this with the following information:

----------

GAME ONE This is a PICK3 based raffle courtesy of the fine folks who also run the Amazing Anonymous Bitcoin Lottery (http://www.taabl.net)

Fine print: TAABL is hosting the raffle. Please contact me for completing the transaction

I'm hosting up 1 Silver Canadian Maple (the "5 dollar" maples) .999 silver for raffle. The entry is .1 and it's a pick 3 game, so each .1 is worth one random number (you can customize your pick by placing the appropriate bet hex in satoshis on your .1 bet).  Once the raffle hits 40 entries, it is live and one of the entries will win the price. Shipping is included in the United States.

* Please remember, the Game One raffle only starts at 40, not ends. Anyone can add more chances at .1 BTC per entry . The raffle isn't over until a winner is chosen! *

LINK FOR GAME IS HERE

--11/28 After the initial raffle, subsequent Canadian Maples will be of varying years and conditions, but desirable condition.
