Trent: (hope you read this).
I transferred in your account LM558. I got LM419. Your next transaction you will need to do is NOT less then the difference, which is LM139. To be precise, it is 139+1.50(bank commission)+2.50(other charges) = LM143. (Am not including 3 months of interest + time wasted + 3 months off my life for the hassle + Hired Car )

c'mon mods. this has gone too far now.
I agree that this is an unacceptable resolution, so would you and others PLEASE stop assuming that since a few of us spoke to Trent's previous credibility that we condone what is happening now. It's not only wrong...it's needlessly insulting.

I am confused because I am sure Trent's bank would have explain just how much Trip would receive on his end EDIT it looks like Trent know exactly how much he was sending 
I'm looking at the receipt, and it looks like only 1300 usd were sent in the first place.......it seems pretty clear that not enough was sent......not even including the change in exchange rate!

as a side note I got a voice mail from Best Buy's corp office thanking me for the information i sent and for the link to this thread - they will investigate the charges however they believe this to be a private matter since it did not happen at the store. they did state that if the thread is found true this is a clear indication of the of the employee's character and this is not the type of employee they want representing Best Buy

whatever USD amout Trent received, he should have returned...regardless of exchange rate. The seller shouldn't be able to make any money during a refund if the exchange rate varies....as for the buyer, that's the risk you take with international orders.

...wow, it's not really shocking, but man, it's pretty disappointing.
BTW Trent, smart and honest is better than dumb and conniving. I know you can't help one of the former, so it's really in your best interests to be honest.
