Does someone on this forum know him or know how to reach him?
I've tried to reach him by email for a few times during the recent weeks but I haven't heard back from him since early May. I was wondering if he's on holiday or perhaps some personal issues going on at the moment.

Seriously - does anyone know what this Kyriakos dude is up to?
I agreed a trade with him in early May and it was agreed we both send by registered mail. I sent him a mint Axiom EP and a month passed and nothing arrived in return. I started emailing him - no answer. Another month passed - no record in trade, no reply to emails. Then I posted here the first time. The silence continued.
After 11 weeks of total silence he finally emailed and told he had been out of country for a month. This was 3 weeks ago. He promised to check with the post office about his packet first thing on monday.
3 weeks has passed and haven't heard anything from him. All my emails have been ignored.
If he truly is "Mass of Cthulhu" he's been logging to the Miskatonic forum frequently all the time (last time less than 24 hrs ago). Why is he then ignoring my emails? Why am I getting messages from other forum members they have similar problems with him?

Okay, enough is enough. Time to hoist the RIP OFF WARNING flag concerning Kyriakos Dikalfas.
The whole thing in short:
May 4th he sent me an email telling he's interested in the AXION 12"EP I had on my trade list. A dozen emails fly back and fort quickly and day later a trade is agreed on. May 5th I sent him an email telling I'll send the vinyl to him in by registered email the following day. He answers and promises to to do the same.
Nothing arrives in the mail so I start sending him emails asking what's up. No reply. Weeks pass and all my emails remain unanswered. After waiting 10 weeks in total darkness I start asking after him at this forum. That seems to work as a week later (July 26th to be exact) he finally replies telling he's been out of the country for a month. Well, I had been sending him emails for nearly two months already at that point.
Anyway, in this first mail in 11 weeks he promises to check at the post office what has happened to his packet. Another period of silence starts. Again it takes several mails until 3 weeks later (August 19th) he bothers to answer one of them. In this email he tells his packet is probably lost and post office can't help 'cause he should have have contacted them a month earlier. Well, I don't think post offices loses track of a registered parcel that fast. In the same e-mail he offers to return me the AXIOM EP by registered mail. I confirmed the shipping address.
Yet another month has passed now. Needless to say nothing has arrived. It simply doesn't take more than 1 week for a registered parcel to travel within EU. I've emailed him and surprisingly no answer.
When we negotiated the trade back in May he was very capable of sending me several emails within a 24 hour period. After I said the magic words "I'll send tomorrow by registerd mail" it all changed. Over 4 months later I have not received anything from in trade for the AXION EP and he has managed to send me two (!) bloody emails. During this period he has posted on this very forum. He has been logged in at the Miskatonic forum today. He's very much alive but he just doesn't give a shit.
Poor communication & empty promises are sure fire characteristics of a RIP OFF and this dude is nothing but. May this episode be a warning to all members of this forum - DO NOT trade with this person, he'll just rip you off.
His forum nick is mentioned in previous posts and he has two different emails.
