Dissorient sends me a tell and links Ring of Ancients.

We meet at FP bank, I give him the payment for J-boots.

I switch back to my monk, contact Dissorient and he claims he has no idea who I am and why I just gave him the payment.

Then proceeds to claim I shouldn't have trusted him.

Obviously your scam is to switch toons and then claim no affiliation with the initial agreement.

I'm fine with being out some money, just wanted to share the names involved.

Did you only talk to the same character? Anybody can make an item link or copy one and claim they have the item. Anyone can say they have xxx main in xxx guild and that you should trust them.

I would not buy a MQ from ANYONE anymore. There are a bunch of scamming Bastards out there now. The hell with them. Not counting they have run the price for them up to hell and gone. F'emm.

This is how i sell jboots mq, I ask the person buying to bring the platinum payment along with the gold to the hasten spawn. As soon as hasten spawns I ask for the platinum for the rapier. There's plenty of jboot mqs selling out there, if someone doesn't want to do it that way then find another seller.

Why don't you just buy from reputable people then? Also, WTS Jboot MQ.

Hard to keep track of reputable people on bank chars/alts, etc. Especially for the new people, when you spend more time leveling and playing the game rather than sitting in EC most of the day you tend to lose track of who is reputable and who is not.

My main is Cecily in TMO and you should trust me.

I am actively hunting to buy jboots, but I've been waiting for someone with a guild tag and/or not anonymous.

Taking longer than I thought

My theory:

Destron was WTBing Jboots, so I sent him a message on my mule (Disseller) and began organizing the deal. I never auctioned that I was selling Jboots that day so there's no way for anyone else to pick up on that information. He told me to log over and link the ring, I (Disarmonia) did. After that, he said he was getting on his monk that the jboots were for. I sat and waited for a reasonable amount of time, but he never contacted me again. During this time, I'm going to assume he forgot who he was talking to. So he /whoed 'Dis', and somehow managed to gloss over my name and begin talking to this Dissorient. Destron claims Dissorient also linked him a ring immediately, but that's really not possible unless Destron gave him some information first. ("Hey, you're the guy selling jboots right? Want my 6kpp?!?!") Sounds like Dissorient picked up on what was going on and scored himself some free platinum.

The weird thing is, even after I logged Disarmonia and got back on my mule, Disseller, which is the original character I contacted him on... I was semi-afk for hours and I never got a whisper about any of this.

Either Dissorient is the best scammer I've ever seen and managed to figure out you were buying a jboot MQ before you even said anything about it, like you say, OR, you're extremely stupid and basically went around waving platinum in the air asking who you're supposed to give it to. I'm going to stick with the latter.

It sucks you got scammed, but holy shit man, you couldn't even remember the names of the people you were dealing with originally, or the names of the people you're trying to accuse in your original post. Turn on /log, like I wish I had for this, or even notepad stuff next time.

GM confirm/deny plox.

Also, if you want, I'll sell you my MQ at a reduced price using a middleman of some sort because I'm such a swell guy.
