I'm not "involving myself" - I'm reaching out on behalf of a colleague - i am a member here because a package was ordered for SWC and I believe I carried out my duties in that respect well.

I'm not trying to be disrespectful, nor inflame the situation. In fact, I am trying to do the exact opposite. I am offering to act as a conduit, and help to resolve this situation, without it getting anymore out of hand than it already has. 

I don't have any reason whatsoever to doubt that you fully intended to pay Scorpion, and I completely acknowledge that I have thus far only heard one side of the story, but I have also seen screenshots of the conversations between you which in my interpretation showed an agreement being made, a request being made for payment, a message being sent promising payment, and then some issue arising in no payment being made.

That's the only assessment I've made, and as I said, I'm not taking sides, or accusing you or anyone else of anything. I understand that to protect your reputation and the integrity of your site you wanted to take action to ban Scorpion as obviously this got out of hand, but in my view, that does not invalidate the fact that they are owed payment and you did seem to agree to that.

Therefore I'm only asking if I can act to attempt to help you resolve this situation, however that may be - whether it is negotiating a payment to be made as agreed, or facilitating some sort of conversation between yourself and Scorpion so this issue can be resolved. That's it.
