If you had a bad trade.. i.e. were given a bad code...

First.. contact the seller/trader to make sure it wasn't by accident.. but do it privately.

If that didn't work.. then please let me know.. privately.. and I will try to help out. No guarantees though.

Well...........

I didnt say anything since this person just advertised the code for *free* I emailed and got the code about a week ago. I said THANK YOU!!! to them and tried to use it last night and I got an error that the code had already been used.

Should I say something to the person? Or should I not since they did give it to me for free?

you know - you might find out that they had no idea the code was used. for example, I keep track of all the available codes I have in my palm - I swear I never used one for Urban Decay - but when I tried to use it yesterday it said it had already been used. I was kinda bummed - but I figured since I got it free in the first place I couldn't really yell about it. So - you might want to just drop a line to the person in private to let them know - becuase they might have truely not known. I mean - why wuold someone give something away that they weren't going to use if they thought it was already used - it wouldn't do them any good except make people ticked at them. JMHO

Similar things have happened to me too.

Most likely (hopefully) it was a mistake and completely unintentional.. and that the person who gave it to you really thought it would work.

If I got it for free.. I would probably just chalk it up as another deal that just didn't work out and move on.. but that's me.

Have a nice weekend.

I buy alot of things from this board and I would appreciate knowing if anyone is dishonest. I think if you get a bad deal...it should be reported on the board...kind of like the negative feedback that eBay uses.

Anyone else agree/disagree?
