Sent a cashiers check on July 8th for the oil temp gauge he has in the classifieds. He hasn't replied to emails or phone calls since.
Not a happy customer at the moment.

wow, unbeleivable.
he asked me to keep the gauge for him because he need a week or so to get paid , as i had other buyer and i accepted because i owed him a favor (he found me some okrasa heads a few years back) i told him that i would keep the gauge for him and to not worry about it and that he could take his time on payment.
i had a small surf trip coming up so i went to post office 4 days after he sent the check and nothing, the small surf trip was out of email zone that i just came back today to find this.
i never seen such of a anxious customer, if he wanted express shipping i would advise to use paypal but he decided to send a cashiers check without a tracking number so i figure he wasnt too hurry, i am not a business owner, just a guy with a few parts for sale, sometimes patience is in order and i would hope that it goes both ways specially when the customer ask to hold without deposit and use the mail service for payment.

sorry for the stress. wasnt my intention.

Anxious?
Here are the facts.
He sent an email July 7th with an address to send the check.
I dropped it in the mail the next day and asked to let me know when he got it.
Then nothing......no emails, just voicemail when I called. Silence.
Finally got an email on Sun July 20th.
That is 13 days of no contact what so ever.

It baffles me that Louis finds this so strange that I thought he was trying to rip me off.

Also, I never asked to hold it without a deposit.
I said I was interested, and would purchase it in a week if it was still available.
The damn ad was still up until Everett pulled it!



I would suggest better communication in the future. A simple email stating you were going out of town for a couple weeks would have avoided all of this.
