Your seller is alive, well, and overworked. Lets give him time to respond. He does shift work and his free time is limited. Bob

I think people selling items should have their stuff ready to get shipped if they are so busy they can't get to it in a timely matter. Worse than that is the lack of communication. Recently I have had these problems with both a buyer and a seller. I had a buyer that definitely wanted my item but needed to find a voltage reducer. So I sent him a link for that. Anyway days of PMs it has been days of no communication. I could have sold the item 3 times but waited for nothing. I also purchased four items sent a payment (paypal) right out. I keep asking when it will be shipped and after several days I get he has been busy and will do it asap. Now I am told it will be shipped this Tuesday. Anyway I just had to vent. I just think people no longer have regards for other individuals. Am I missing something?

If you're going to put an item up for sale at least have the courtesy to complete the sale by shipping the item in a timely manner. If not then don't put the item up for sale.

Respect other peoples time and urgency!

Angry Re: Has anyone received their parts from this seller ?

I will also chime in on this issue - bought and paid for a manifold that he had received the check the 11th of August and affirmed that it would go out in a few days (I have saved all his messages). It is now the 2nd of Sept and only one reply to many messages and also e-mails that he does not respond to. I have also called his phone number with no results. I will wait (unfortunately) till the end of the week........ then! I believe that the BARN moderator should look into things like this. It's crap like this that pisses' off the majority of us who are trying to work on their cars.!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am 3 weeks out on the radiator shell that I sent payment for. It has been promised to be shipped out this thursday. We will see. I asked for routing so I can track it. Hope I'm not getting played again.

Just a quick follow up on this issue: I spoke with my son (who is in Florida law enforcement) regarding this and other types of scams. He suggested that I (we all) contact the Florida States Attorney and also the Florida Post Master: since I mailed him a check through the U.S. Post Office, they rather frown upon the use of their facility regarding things of this nature. Does anyone have a family member in the legal trade - or know someone well enough to ask about this subject? There seems to be enough of us that have been ripped off to want him to have his underwear in a bunch! Keep this thread going - next step will be to post his name / address /phone # up here and on the H.A.M.B.

No excuse, especially if it's been over a month now.

I agree with some of the posts about waiting for your item. My thought is if you want to sell something and you have a buyer tell the buyer what your plans are for shipping and time frame. If the only time you can ship is certain days or just on Saturday or whatever because of your schedule tell the buyer that. Guys that need parts to keep things moving on the rrepairs can't wait to long and if the buyer isn't willing to wait then they can go elsewhere or decide to wait. It ticks me off when you send a money order or Paypal and there is no need to wait for a check to clear and you still wait just as long for the guy to ship. No excuse JUST TELL THE BUYER YOU SHIPPING PLANS WHEN YOU CAN SHIP BEFORE THE TRANSACTION IS STARTED. Real simple. Don't take the guys money and sit on the item till your good and ready to ship.

Well, is anyone going to let the rest of us know who this guy is? Send me a PM with a statement something like " his name IS NOT Joe Blow".

Anytime you sell something online it should be shipped in 1 or 2 business days at the most. That is how I operate and I feel everyone should.

Personally, including my commute I am away from home 12+ hours a day 5 days a week and I still find time to get it done.

If not one or two days then at least state the number of days. If something happened then at least a quick note like "sorry emergency came up will get to you in x days/weeks.

Absolutely. Staying in touch is most important if there is a problem.
