Hello All,
I have a confession to make.....I'm an idiot. Yep....it is that simple. I agreed to purchase something from a forum member......and I didn't ask his particular method of shipping prior to sending money to him. I admit......as hard as it is....that was on me. It turns out he sent it retail ground.....it is now lost in the south as it just runs circles with the carrier. I'm not going to list the carrier, but the member is ANOTHERFORUMNAME. I will issue this bit of wisdom....ALWAYS ASK HOW THEY WILL SHIP PRIOR TO SENDING MONEY. I didn't, lesson learned. I've contacted the seller and been accused of scamming because the initial tracking number didn't work and then my follow-on seems to have set him off. Regardless, I'm at the mercy of the shipper at this point. Be careful my fellow forum brethern......measure twice and cut once!!! A a follow-up, I didn't leave feedback because the deal wasn't done....I haven't received my package. I contacted the seller early to ask for an updated tracking number....the first came back invalid. I contacted again today stating the package seemed lost in the mail.....I even talked about a refund if the package didn't arrive. my seller immediately went to negative feedback.......just because I asked for information and broached the subject of a refund. I didn't initially even list the seller.....until he left negative feedback.....I never talked about negative feedback....the deal isn't done. I will not leave feedback just because the seller is pissy.....the deal isn't done. Guess I will get the mods involved.....lovely, just lovely.
