You lose. You have two choices:

One: wait for him to come back, and get the money.

Two: Request for him to be reset. You lose the money, but so does he.

Either way, unless he sends you cash, you will NOT get the money back.

If you had loaned the item to him, you would have gotten the item back. So I think what you mean is that the deal you 2 had made did not go as planned/stated in the thread you made.

This is sated right in the Public Record forum:

If person A scams person B, we will reset A. We do not want to encourage scamming. BUT, it is your responsibility to make sure the person you are dealing with is trustworthy. We also do not want to encourage the thinking of, "so what if this guy offering me a loch for $100k is scamming me, all I have to is whine to the admins to get my money back." So no, we're not in the property recovery business. Same goes for loan installment payments. In other words: if you want truly scamproof trading, your only option is the auction system.

It has only been 4 days, maybe wait a bit longer. Something could have happened to him to prevent him from getting online. working real hard or went on vacation or something
