so last Monday i shipped my CLYW Canvas to this guy, he was sending me a CLYW avalanche and a C3 halo. after almost two weeks i still have not got it and i’m not sure what to do now. i don’t know what his YYE username is but his actual name is Jonah Slider. if anyone can help in some way i would really appreciate it. I’m hoping he didn’t try and just take my yoyo and run but it really looks like it.
Mod Edit: Note that Yoyosareawesome53/Jonah6465 are the same guy. He has used both accounts to give himself feedback.

This guy tried to trade with me once and said his friend owed him a Puffin that he would have sent to me if I sent him my canvas. I told him to get a YYE account and have his “friend” get involved in the process… No further communication. I had a bad feeling about my “trade” and even worse about yours.
How did you communicate with “this guy” without knowing his username? How did you connect? What does this have to do with YYE?
Or, are you just looking if someone knows someone named Jonah Slider? Seriously, the only thing you know is his address. You might reverse-lookup the address for a phone number and try to locate an adult at that number…
He emailed me after seeing it on my BST so I’m pretty sure he’s a member. I probably should’ve done more research and I’m not sure what calling him or any other contact might do
He found my BST as a guest and then emailed off my profile. My interaction was odd and I made requests that made sense. He then stopped contact. I would advise against making trades outside the feedback control system. It makes no sense not to create a free profile if you intend to trade honestly.
I’d like to suggest that you set your profile to hide your email address from public view. That would at least alleviate this sort of problem arising from people contacting you outside the forums.
In your profile >> Account Related Settings
Check the box that says: Hide email address from public?
Hey im jonah slider and i am the person that is trading with rayeman and i honestly am not scamming him idk what happend to the avalanche and halo but i am taking care of it and im sorry for the inconvience but i am handeling it
I’ve probably posted this a million times, not literally, but a LOT. Trading a yo-yo for a yo-yo is the most risky transaction you can be involved in on the BST. It is more risky than either buying or selling on the forum. It is also at it’s worst, when it involves a “high risk trader,” someone who is not an active member on the forum, who has an extremely low post count, and an extremely low or non-existent feedback count.
You engaged in the most risky of transactions, and you did so under the worst circumstances (with a high risk trader). This does not surprise me…how unfortunate. :-\
