Ok guys....he just e-mailed me back,apologised profusely for being totally busy,and promised to bag and ship asap.
Now ,if he does, we'll all look like grownups here,because we handled this in a mature respectful way.....apparently not as much fun as some would have liked,but for those of you who think as I do,thanks for the advice.
If -/when he ships,I'll let you know ,and no one gets slammed needlessly.

Awesome news, epoxy.

Now it's my turn. I waiting on a seller to resolve a misrepresented item I purchased from him. We'll see.

shunyata · Apr 17, 2012, 09:22 PM

Doh! Dual post!

I'm not totally convinced yet.....I'll feel better when it's in the mailbox,for sure.

The advice I got is,being unreasonable and accusatory may not be the best solution.
"before you assume,.learn the facts,...before you speak,think!"
If you don't do anything that makes you look the fool,you'll have more people willing to help get you through the rough spots.
I don't want that kind of reputation....being a troublemaker,but if you start it,here I come.
If this ends peacefully,in the next week,I won,t click the "negative" button....if not......but there's no positive click here either.
Communication is good..should be part of the deal.

Good deal

In this age of Internet and smart phones, I find it increasingly difficult to believe so many people can't find three minutes to send an email, text, PM, etc. This same story gets played out on here almost daily.

That's one of the things I've learned..I try to talk as if you're across the table from me,making the deal...I'm concerned about my trader rating (2)but when it gets to 100,I don't want anyone to hesitate to buy from me..I think-what if I run into this man,at a show,or flying field-will I be able to shake his hand?,or will I have to hide? Helps keep me honest.

SLOPERDUDE · Apr 18, 2012, 09:42 AM

Yes, I try to do the same. There is a ripple effect to everything...good interactions breed good feelings, just like the opposite.
