So I made a trade with fellow trader, B-Maj, last weekend. As we wrapped things up, I asked about the owners manual, which was supposed to be included. He got an awful look on his his face and said, "Oh no, I forgot it and left it home.". He was a good half hour from home and I had to leave to get back, so we agreed that I would give him an address and he would drop it in the mail.
So Wednesday, I get an apologetic text that he just sent it that day and that he would slide a $5 in with the manual so I could get a 'cup of coffee' for my trouble - since he gave his word he would send it 'right away'. I got the manual (express mail) and the unexpected $5 as promised. He did not have to do that. If I got it next week, it would have been fine and I told him that.

Who does stuff like this anymore??? I guess a man that cares about his word and reputation. Great guy to deal with and man of his word. My wife has asked me why I like trading on ODT... well people like B-Maj are why.
 
This is against the ODT rules, but here it goes:
I'M CALLING YOU OUT, B-MAJ
You are a "stand up guy"!!!!
 
That is how good and moral men are suppose to conduct themselves. It is a shame that it is no longer expected or the norm. Kudos to the all the good people here. Let's weed out the bad ones of dishonest character !
 
I've been in about the same situation twice on here but your luck is better than mine.mThey were both about the same scenario. They said either I couldnt find or I forgot it and will send them when I get back home. One has been three years and the other a little over a year and I'm still waiting. A persons word just don't seem to mean much as it once did.
