one bad apple,I am sorry the guy is being such jerk over things but there are a lot of us who are good traders and don't deserve the black eye because of one unscrupulous person.
try contacting Peel regional police as there has  been theft and fraud have taken place and maybe a roomate by the name of bubba may help him change his mind.

I don't think anyone is singling out Canadians, although if you count the current situation, our last two bad dealers were both from Canada. It is unfortunate that most traders seem to start off honorably, but somehow fall into the mess.

Hey Mike.
I didn't see any of the posts as targeting Canadians in general either. I have dealt with tons of "our brothers up north" (including you or course) and didn't see it as a Canadian thing.
As we all know we have enough idiots down here in the states too. It just so happens the past miscreants are from up yonder.
My $0.02 US.

As said, I'm not blaming all Canadians, just the last two.
A number of us did contact the Canadian Police about the other guy, what a waste of time that was. They've obviousely got bigger fish to fry.
That's why these guys carry on, they know unless they stitch up someone local they're untouchable.

I have 2 Canadians in my group of builders. I have had NO TROUBLE with exchanging kits with them. I will say it is hard to trust anyone, but now that I have a SKYPE modeling group that text chats to each other all the time daily helps in feeling the trust in trades. Not all are builders for me . Most just come in to chat and enjoy the company of other modelers and that builds a major part of the trust. Its free and very worth while. skype.com and hunt down the name tankrat2u. Oh and it translates too
