Trading G4G

yendor35 · 03-05-10, 07:32 AM

Hi I have a G4G trade on offer in the trade section of eXceem, As I have never traded before I wondered if it is 100% safe or is there an eliment of dodgy trades where 1 completes a trade and the other one just seems to not bother? Would like to know if there are any members that have had trades with no trouble.

Cheers

Its generally safe, but you have to be vigilant who you trade with.

As a general rule, I would say the newest of the 2 completes there offer first. Then the older member completes their offer. e.g. if I were to trade with you, I would expect you to complete your offer first.

That's fair enough, I suppose it's all down to trust at the end of the day.

That's a hard one, How do you know who to trust? Most of the traders on there at the moment all have a zero rating.

Also Genesis where about's in Kent are you? I also am in Kent.

from what I remember, the rules state that you are not allowed to demand that someone does their offer first. You have to do it at the same time.

I have done about 10 trades, only 1 didn't go green for me, but that was on Giveaway anyway so I wouldn't have got the green anyway.

Well fingers crossed, I have started one with scoobyrazz, I have done the EurosportBet and he has done the same. I have deposited my £10 and placed a bet on the Blackburn V Arsenal game this afternoon. Apparntly he is having trouble depositing the money, Which I hope is a fact and not a get out story

Anyway lets hope it go well.

You shouldn't have a problem with trades on eXceem. I trade on many forums and truly the way the trading system is here is better than any other i have used.In a G4G trade if you go green first and are worried about your trade partner going green you can always put in a support ticket to FJ and they can place a hold on your green.Until you say otherwise your trade partner can do nothing with your green.I have had FJ do this for me before in a trade.

If you've got any problems with a trade you need to create a thread in trade support on exceem, not go directly to freebiejeebies and we'll contact them on your behalf to sort things out AFTER there's been a problem. If you sign up and complete an offer the other person signs up and completes their offer at the same time, if for whatever reason they haven't done it immediately, make sure they sign up at the same time, give them a couple of days to do an offer, as there may be a legitimate reason for them notdoing so, then contact us if they haven't with a link to the thread, ref links etc.

Never agree to anything by pm as this makes things far harder for us to sort, so all comments should be added to the trade thread

Hi Emma, Thanks. I have 2 trades going on at the moment both of which are being done via the trade section and all conversations are on the comments board.
