Well, I can't post ALL conversation. When he replied to my email, he usually took what i said out, but here's some:

He also used "cameronwv" on ebay

A few of his emails on the trade:

3/3/02
Hello
The Rage has a Driver and BP. It is Mint out of box. I dont knwo where
the box is though. It has perfect stickers applied.
The Avalanche is complete as well, it has BP, but unfortunatley no
driver. It came to me like that. It to is mint out of box. I dont have
any pictures. But you can check my feedback on ebay if you would like.
My ebay name is Cameronwv.
For trade i am looking for complete figures. Cash wise i am looking
for an offer from yah. Which ever is easier for you. I accept paypal,
cash, or moneyorder. Thanks

William

later on3/3/02
Hello
i will take the Annihilator. The Rage only has two of the mines so its
probably missing 2 i think. Yeah i hope you dont mind the post, I was
just being curious. Havnt done this much. But it is a pleasure doing
business with you. Thanks

William
I also need your address to send the vehicles.

3/4/02
Hello
The Avalanche is white as rice if not better. I got it around
christmas time and it had the box. The box had a little accident so I
had to get rid of it. The Avalanche was put togeather then. Its in
great shape.

Thanks
William

My AIM conversation with him on 4/13/02(the day I finally recieved)

prozac3580: HI. I got the package today, but there were some things
missing that should've bben there.
Adogg8teen: like what
prozac3580: mine tray
2 mines
1 missile
cap that goes on the end of the side gun
Driver and accessories

prozac3580: all from the rage
prozac3580: avalanche was fine
Adogg8teen: i told you that the rage didnt come with a driver, and
that there were a few things missing
prozac3580: this is from one of your emails:
prozac3580: The Rage has a Driver and BP. It is Mint out of box. I
dont knwo where the box is though. It has perfect stickers applied
Adogg8teen: well i dont remember saying that
prozac3580: and when you posted on yojoe when inquiring about the
trade that it was only missing 2 mines
Adogg8teen: yeah it should have had the mines and the tray
prozac3580: i have the email and will gladly forward it to you showing
that you said that
Adogg8teen: i will look here, but im sure i sent it all,
Adogg8teen: guess it couldnt have just hopped out of the box on the
way though lol
prozac3580: he he...doubt it. If you don't have any of those pieces I
would like a few of my figures back to compensate for the missing
pieces
prozac3580: and figure
prozac3580: is that acceptable?
