Hey everyone,
I'm interested in hearing what you think of the following situation:
I recently iniatiated a trade with a trader I've dealt with before. The individual is bit flakey - slow to communicate, and disappears for days at a time - but has always come through in the end.
This deal, however, has developed and oder.
His MO hasn't changed - slow to communicate, takes days to return PMs, several promises to ship followed a few days later by a 'sorry I haven't shipped yet'.
I sent my end. I've dealt with this guy before, he's always come through.
But...
When I tracked the package it says it was 'undeliverable' at that address, and was forwarded to another address. I checked the address again, and it's the one he gave me just 3 days before I shipped.
I've sent a few unanswered PM's since shipping. He's read them, and he's been on the site since then without responding.
What do you think? Shenanigans?
Sean

Trust, but verify.

Paypal fees and delivery confirmation are the cost of doing business. I will never require a buyer to cover these costs.
