well everyone, it's now wednesday and still no package. i've filled a dispute with my cc company. i'm also thinking about sending this to the hillsbrough county sheriffs office for further investigation. i never bothered to mention this in my first post, i'm a LEO with walton county in northwest florida. so i'm trying to decide if i have the time to pursue this further. it really burns me to be ripped off for something. i can stand to lose the 30 bucks that i spent. but the principal behind it is what's important to me. so give me a day or two to think about it. i may ask that anyone that is interested in reporting this to email me on a email account that i will set up for this with the details of their dealings with this guy. it sounds like he has committed a felony in this state, due to the number of people and the amount of money. to andrew, i am 100% serious about this. before you say a word about calling you, i tried, no answer. you should really reconsider the way you handle things, you may find that you aren't just morally liable but also legally. i have family in tampa, and have gotten things from them by usps seveal times in just a couple of days so i know how long it takes for things to get to here from your location. even just regular snail mail is only 3 days or maybe 4 at the most. as far as bootsrenf's comment, not the way to handle things. so much better for the police to do the work for you. will be back on in a few days. till then
