He has no rating. Two items appear to have been sold, one of which was the one I bought.

I should admit that this is partly my fault for handling the deal through the Cryptothrift PM system. I expected the auction to be pulled when he agreed to the deal. So at that point of the argument, yes, I'm an idiot.

But I'm still very upset at CT's response: You did not handle the transaction through our system or our escrow.

Yes, it is true. I did not use their escrow, but I did use their PM in case an audit was required. I wanted the agreement in digits. Didn't do me any good though.

Perhaps this is just an object lesson for everyone else. Don't do a deal without escrow. And don't trust people with no ratings. I've bought so much through bitmit and never had a problem. Even off the forum at mcxNOW. Never had a bad deal.

How long has he not contacted, and have you contacted Cryptothrift? At bare bones minimum get him off the site to not get others.

Paid 1.2 BTC (when prices were a little higher) for a 30 ghash BFL.

Seller disappeared. No contact. Repeated inquiries are not answered.

The seller has other items for sale. Beware.
