This is to inform all of a BAD trader. Her e-mail was HoyeMJ@aol.com . Since all messages get returned this might be changing. Her information is:

Melissa Hoye
Davie St.
Davenport, IA 52806

I traded with her the begining of November. Her side of the trade has never arrived. Contacted her numerious times. She is very nice but she says she is a little girl of 12 years old. I now do not believe.  Have gotten feed back from mmunce@newulmtel.net that they where TAKEN also. I took so long to do anything because of I believe in the good in all of us. Please post so no one else gets burned.

Anyone wishing specifics can contact me at prhjone@cwix.com. I have a copy of all messages.


These are the specific as I best remember.

On Oct. 29 1998 recieved a reply to an add I posted about trading. Her reply stated she had Sting ( one on my list I was looking for ) and what would I have to trade for him.  On oct 30 I replied I would trade the following for Sting. 97 Teddy, Valintino, Echo, and Waves. Same day she replied 'do not think that is enough- I want the 97 teddy and mabey Alley or Tank. Monday November 2 I replied I would trade 97 Teddy and Alley for Sting.

On Nov 3 I received ' I suppose that is alright'. Same day I replied with my name and address phone number and references after restating the specifics of the trade. Again on the 3rd she replied with her name and address. Restated the trade and gave two references. And wanted to know when we would mail.

I replied I would be out of town but be able to mail my side on Thursday the 5th. She replied that is ok I will mail sting on thursday also. On Thursday Nov 5th I mail my side of the deal. US Postal Priority Mail insured from post office 15238.

Sent her a message on Nov 12 asking for a status. She replied 'Yes I did not mail because I lost your address so could u give it to me again ?

I replied with a copy of all the information I sent when I confirmed the trade and asked her to put Sting in the mail today.

Nov 17 sent another message asking for an update. Melissa replied 'l put sting in the mail on Friday of last week, I have not yet recieved your package' I replied that I sent my package on the fifth and hope it arrives today.

Nov 23 I received a reply, to another update request, that ' I have recieved your package, thankyou'

On Monday November 30th I recieved the following after more update requests:

Hi, I just had a breakdown with my computer so its not working very well. I mailed the beanie on the day as stated and dont understand why it is not there yet. I went to the post office Saturday and they said to trace a package you need the address name of the person whom sent it and the day it was sent. The only problemo was that since my comp. brokedown I was not able to have your address, but I had it when I sent the package and now I dont so could you please sent it to me again so I can trace it? Id really appreciate it.

Melissa

Promply send address info and asking her to trace the package.

Dec 7 after more status requests asking her for specifics on how the package was sent I recieved the following. 'I dunno, my mom mailed it and wrote the address down and shes not here now and I cant call her, but will find out, ok?'  I replied that I need the Specifics on how it was sent and from where and I would trace the package from this side.

I recieved the following:

'The people said that It should have gotten there already, but don't know where it is, tried to trace but are all idiots.' Continued to send requests asking for specifics on how and from where the package was sent. I stated I would have to make an assumption if I did not recieve any reply or specifics or package. Melissa replied on Dec 11th:

Paul I am a 12 year old and did not rip you off!!! I mailed sting regular mail and sent it out when I said, I did not rip you off!!! The reason I havent mailed your info on how it was shipped is cuz our 4.0 messed up, if youd like to tell me what you need to know about the shipping feel free to but I DID NOT RIP YOU OFF!!!

I replied with basically the same thing I had been sending. Asking her for specifics as to how the package was shipped.

On Monday dec 14 I opened a message stating:

'Priority mail   I think the date was Nov 25th??? I don't rember And what is the # of the post office sent from? '

From then on ALL mail sent to HoyeMJ@aol.com has been returned.

Sent note to her references. Guest@aol.com also was returned. Pjh1490@aol.com as of now has not responded.

Posted messages asking for info and recieved the following from mmunce@newulmtel.net

Hi. I traded with Melissa about two months ago, I gave her 4 of the June releases, she was to send me Doodles, I never received it and she refuses to answer e-mails, that is probably why her e-mail is down, she seemed very nice. Do NOT trade with her. Any questions feel free to ask. Thanks, Kelly

I will send a note to them asking them to send you specifics. That is my side of the trade.
