What do you do when you broker a deal, paypal money, never receive the merch and get ignored by the member for a refund? It's going on 2 1/2 months with very little communication.

Do you openly trash the member on the boards?

No, since no buying nor selling are allowed here, you're pretty much beyond what is allowed on the forum. If you sent your payment as "For goods" via PayPal, request a refund from PayPal and proceed that way.

Honestly, there's not much a Mod can do here other than to try to help when a trade isn't completed. It's been stated a few times that trading is an inherently risky proposition, based solely on trust, so it's up to each person if they want to accept the risks and proceed. There's no ideal way to let others know if someone didn't send what they were supposed to, but the rule to follow is this: If you're not prepared to lose what you're sending, don't send it.

I have yet to receive my end of two trades, too, and one of the members has read and ignored my PMs. There's not much else a person can do except hope the trader steps up and either makes contact or send what he/she is supposed to.
