I think this is realy not fair. But don't know what could I do. 
I had a deal--good deal-- with a guy, considered as good guy on this GBU. As usual, I sent out my cash almost immediately after having his address. And he's already had it more than 2 weeks now.
About 10 days ago, he mailed me saying it's a delay because his marital problem. I said okay, I understand; please let me know when he got it shipped.
On the 6th of this month, he mailed me again, saying he lost my address and to compenste that delay he'd add some freebies.
I mailed him back my address on the 7th.
NO news from him.
I mailed him again on the 11th asking "Have you got it shipped?"
No news . . . So, I forwarded the same message to him, again, yesterday morning. And till now no reply yet.
I'm not saying that he's going to do bad thing here. He might have some real big problem, but at least I think it's fair to expect better communication.
He's thounsand miles away. . .
What more could I do?

I think my view still the same as when we do sell - buy knives here, since we don't do this for a living. I prefer to do it as if it's a trade deal. . .
As I said in the thread "pay first, delivery second, who gets benefit"

May be that's the way people think it supposed to work?
When I bought from the forum, I'll have to send $$ first and wait until the guy "physically" received the $$, he'll then send a thing. (And sometimes even my $$ has already lands there, I still have to wait few more days before the seller get the thing shipped.
BUT when I sell my thing--as I don't do this for a living--I really prefer to treat it like a TRADE deal. (And actually I always do it this way. And actually many times that I ship it out before the buyer sending his $$ out.) So, it's me trading my thing with your $$.
And I think the fair trade deal, whether it's a knife-knife or in this situ knife--$$, is to SWAP.
Thus basicly, once the deal is done. . . I'm more than ready to ship my thing out. At about the same time that the buyer send out his $$.
If $$ get lost on the way, I do not complain.
If my thing get lost on the way, the buyer shouldn't complain, too.
