UPDATE: She sent the plush after I posted the journal, I have received the plush in one piece today. Once again please no harassment, thank you.

Note: I suck at explaining things so please bear with me. 

This journal is to inform you all of a possible scammer. Now I'm not saying the person is one (keyword: possible), but I keep on getting excuses and I never got anything in return after I did my part for over a year.....

teekyo and I had a trade going on and after I finished my part, she has never finished hers. I would always be the one asking her for updates and she would rarely be the one messaging me first. I have already sent her my part (not knowing any better), thinking I would have her part right away, but as of today Teekyo still hasn't given me anything or has returned the plush I sent. 

The overall story is this:
Teekyo asked if she can do a trade with me for the Flitter plush I made, and out of everyone that has asked I chose her. Due to my mother trying to give the plush away for free to any child she sees, I sent Teekyo the plush thinking it would be better and I would receive the sculpts within a few months or so. I first received one wip which was in her scraps folder, but afterwards it stopped (for that time). I would have to message her time after time for updates and she would always give me an excuse. Note that each time I would have to message her more because she wouldn't answer my messages after she reads them. She would also make posts on her account and ignore my messages. She would reply back after I sent her a couple at a time. A year later she sent me another work in progress, which I was happy about. But after a while it started again and before I said it, she cancelled on me. She asked if she can pay for it and I told her if she can pay by a certain time she can, but she asked for a longer time. Due to her having the plush for so long I told her to rerun it and after she pays in full I will send her back. She agreed. I was waiting for the plush for two weeks and she said it was sent back to her house last week. I told her I was tired of her excuses and I have been far too nice with her and to please send her to me immediately. 

As of now I have not heard from Teekyo and I think I am just done. This is getting ridiculous and I don't like being taken advantage of. I'm not the type of person to put someone out there, but I can't take this. 
Again, I have sent her many messages throughout the year and she wouldn't reply to me as much. As the time passed I would message her more and more, being consistent with it. Not wanting to stalk, but needing to, I would notice she would still be active on her account with her comments (she hides them all), but I can still see her replies. She used to do many polls, journals, and submit art while ignoring my notes, but now she hasn't anymore (probably because I keep on telling her that I don't appreciate being ignored as she posts away). As of now, her last reply was a day ago on a hidden comment on her page, and I have sent her two notes within the last week. 
I would like to ask you to please NOT harass her, for I am only warning you of her actions, and to watch out.
I feel like I am being robbed and this is theft. I don't appreciate being treated like this, I am ignored and being brushed off. She isn't cooperating and I want this to stop. Please send back the plush. 

Tired of all of this,
Airidesi

Heh, sounds similar to a trade situation I had once, but different circumstances. I asked if she would ship her part of our trade (after having it finished for months) with an auction she listed on eBay if I won it. Needless to say, I made sure I won it. I got the trade and the auctioned plush. I sent my half afterward, but at least I got her half. :phew:
