The "In need of directions" Trader" This trader is known for completely screwing up his address on his trade page so when you go to send him the game via paypal paypal doesn't recognize the address. Attempts to contact the user usually fail miserably.

間違った言語トレーダー This trader sends the game in the wrong language. Usually japanese.

Not your Pal Trader: This trader sends a Pal version of the game and wonders why he gets a negative.

I'm definitely a Well-Wishing Compulsive Refresher.  I'm a nice guy on trades (100% postitive feedback as seller and buyer), though I tend to obsess a little more than I should regarding my game/movie trade status.

Hexpane:

The Well-Wisher -  Sends PMs, or hand written notes about the game or the transaction, hoping you enjoy the game.

The Time Traveler: Hits "Will send in 3 days" when accepting the trade but mails it out the same day so that the game ends up arriving before/on the day it's supposed to be sent.

The Gifter: Always sends a small gift along with game/movie requests.

The NAFTA    - battles extreme shipping problems, overpricing custom fees etc... to ship across borders

The DeadMan - sends complete package, only it's covered in dust, dirt and looks like it was in a coffin for 10 years

The Full Monty - sends full package games and even includes the fillers and promo items that came w/ it but are not required

I do that VERY often. I like to have extra time for my trade if the game gets lost in the mail... So i pick three  days get there in two...

Um...you guys are really bumming out this thread. Why don't you start another thread an complain. This thread is about the awesomeness that is nicknames for types of traders.

Stop bumming me out. This is the thread of sunshine and happiness. If you can't abide by the two rules: Sunshine and Happiness; then you need to go away

Wonderful thread, some of these are so perfect.

The Soliciter - User feels that they are entitled to the ever elusive 50 point tip.  Often times the aspects of the completed trade were acceptable at best.  However this does not stop them from sending an intrusive P.M. asking for their well deserved bonus

Dick Tracy - When matched up he/she will perform an extensive background search on their potential buyer.  If something looks even the slightest bit suspicious they will cancel and re-list.  Will avoid new members as if they were the plague.  Most often found in possession of highly sought after games so as to avoid waiting periods between relists.

That's me.  I hate just sending the print out without a message

Love the thread, some really creative users

Off topic posts deleted.  If you want to talk shipping costs/time go to a shipping thread.  Thanks.

The Clueless Shipper:  This user thinks that Goozex covers the postage and they do not need to attach their own postage to the packages.  Miraculously these packages still arrive and the user thinks they have done well even though people constantly tell them they must add shipping.

These users are usually minors and most likely in public or pre-school.

Where'd my identiy go Trader: This guy ends up sending his reciept from the game purchase with the game. It usually shows vital information about credit cards/names.
