Matt Diesel is a thief
Traders beware. Do not trade with Matt Diesel!
Matt Carroll Cleveland TN 37323 LNDCRMC@AOL.COM This guy kept bugging me for a piece of my red/green caulastrea. We agreed on a thermos/cooler trade when the weather warmed up. He lives in Tennessee and I live in South Carolina, so shipping would be quick and inexpensive. He insisted on overnight shipping though, so I sent his frags out (multiple heads of the candy and a 2x1 inch chunk of zoanthids) on April 4, 2005. The UPS tracking # indicated that the package was delivered on April 5th. On April 7th after multiple pms and e-mails I received this: Quote:

Ya know, I think it's more laziness than anything. It's easy to sit at a computer, shop for what you like and have it delivered to your front door, but it takes a teeny-weenie bit of effort to get off your butt, bag a couple of frags and drive to the nearest FedEx, UPS or post office, pay some money and ship the things.

And that's just one reason I prefer to get my stuff locally and or at a store online or otherwise . Truth is whether it's laziness or fraud people are still people and we make mistakes regularly .

Don't let 1 jerk judge your opinion on the whole community. I have traded with at least 20 complete strangers on this board with no problems. The key is too make sure they don't appear to be a newbie to the board. Sorry and I hope you get your frags
Peace Rob |

Hey Moderator,
Do you know something I don't know? How do you know that address was the guy's home address? It was the shipping address - that's all I know. Can you tell us if that guy has ever been on RC under a different user name? Thanks for the support Rob and sherm71tank, but it will be a long, long time before I trust anyone on RC again. |

I also have had great experience trading with a few people on RC. I usually ask them to ship to me first. Because that way I know I will do my part and ship right back when I promised. Everyone I have dealt with always sends me nice stuff, and they get back the frags that were promised. So don't let this one jerk cause you to lose great trades with others.
