What do all of you think about people who DO NOT pay up on Bets lost? I have come to the conclusion that a friendly bet I made with a Board member here on the USC - Texas game is not going to pay up. Kind of lame if you ask me, I sent a couple of PM's got a reply said he was going to get the bet settled and then .........no more word. I then sent another PM I know he got and no responce........I hate posting this but I think I should find out what you people think about it. If you lost a bet with a fellow board member , would you pay up?
I for one know if I had not payed up it would have been all over the board about how a guy from GA is a loser and so on and so on....
This is now 3 months old now , and it was only for a bottle of Bevedere. I now if I had lost I would have the bet settled within a week.I guess the California economy must be bad...............
Tell me what you think. I gave him the chance to pay up but to no avail.I will copy and past all correspondance if you guys would like to see how it all went down....
So much taking people at their word.

I'll throw my .02 in the mix even though it doesn't matter. If you make a bet public on the boards and don't pay up plan on hearing about it on the boards. I would expect nothing less. Now if you made the bet via pm's then it's a different story. We are all busy but 2 months seems a little long... :rollside:

Two months is a long time. If it took coming on here to actually get it, then cool. I don't think SWB was trying to welch, but as to your original question about people who welch on bets- I think they suck and should but outted here, so others know not to trust them in the future.

Two months is a long time. It's one of those things that gets put off and forgotten about. Wasn't intentional, obviously, as the unopened bottle is still sitting on my counter.
Hell don't send to him I'll come over and drink it with you..... :rollside: :idea:

Sorry about not sending the bottle, it really is sitting on my counter. I'll take it down to the post office tomorrow.
FWIW, if you had welched on the bet, I most certainly would not have said anything about it on the board, nor to you. That's not my style. I would have reminded you about it a couple times and forgot about it. Somebody welched on a bet with me already regarding the Clippers, I never said a word about it.
Until now!! lmao

lol. Damn dude, I asked you OVER and OVER what our bet was and offered to make it right, you never told me.
