My friend was trying to find someone to synth her a Scorp harness. After trying all the referrals that she received with no luck she decided to see if she could have any luck with shouting for a high lvl bonecrafter.

Money is the character that answered her shout. He told her the charge was 50k for a regular synth and 500k for a HQ. It's all fine and dandy with her, they set up a meeting place and trade.

conviently enough he had left the crystal in his mog house. Now I"m getting a really, really bad feeling about this <she paid 9 mil for the claw>.

Sure enough, he zoned into his mog house and my oh my he logged out!!! ><

She's been waiting for 15 mins just to give him the benefit of the doubt just in case he did d/c <it can happen>.

He's not coming back, she got ripped off and I just wanted to let everyone know about this asshat.

Remeber his name is Money.

If anyone knows this person and I'm wrong plz let me know but at the point of time he's nothing but a jackass

I think that incident is a violation of the new ToS. You may want to report that, to a higher power.

It has been reported and the GMs are supposed to be working on it but she was told that there's a 50/50 chance of getting her stuff back. ><

This is why it is always better to go through a trusted source, even if it means waiting a few days. I mean she DID get that far without one. Security in this instance is worth the wait. =) I really do hope she gets her stuff back, though!

Let's all learn from this lesson so it never happens again. ^_^

Its rough when you have to shout for a high level synth like that. I only did it once. A bonecrafter named Nonsensical helped me out, everything went fine.

Little advice for synth shouts like that if you have to do them.

provide your own crystal that way they have no reason to "run into mh" or w/e

glad to hear things turned out well though

Most high level crafters want to use their crystal so that they can sign the item.

Next time you guys need a high lvl crafter just do what I did earlier on. Ask the Leader of a well known end game LS....chances are they can hook you up good. In my case I asked Tredvolt, the leader of IRON. He was very nice and helpful, and now I have regular trustworthy high lvl crafters that I can count on for my most expensive synths.
