IKZ a bad seller. Please help
Well i really don't know how to go about this or what i can do?
I bought a NOS system off this guy i sent him a money order that he got over 3 weeks ago, he said he shipped it Monday April 5th he gave me no tracking number. I have still yet to see the package, and to make matters worse i have called him many times left messages, and the last time i talked to him on the phone was around April 2nd. i have e-mailed him he hasn't responded.
The problem i have is that i have no clue if he sent it, i don't understand why he won't return my phone calls and i don't know what to do
Any help would be nice, i go to school and can barely afford my car, i took it off the road for 2 extra months just so i could buy this.
Please Help
Thanks, Patrick

post his info and stuff here... someone might know him, it will scare him into giving you your money back, or it can serve as a warning for the rest of us

I have his address and phone number, I just wish he would call me, cause i would hate to put his address up here and find out that he really did ship it even though it should have been here a while ago.
My family Lawyer phoned him and left a message to call me and he didn't.

Now I have "heard" that shipments to Canada from the US take weeks, even months to clear through customs AND that there possibly could be additional customs fees tacked on to your package before you can pick it up. I learned this through shipping UPS, USPS, and FedEx through our company. May be worth looking into. As far as him not responding to email, he could of at least done that.
Here is some interesting links...

Keep in mind that this incident alone may be enough to discourage some of us from buyng things from this person. At the BARE MINIMUM, some of us may not want to wait 3+ weeks for parts, so for no other reason, please post his information so we can know to steer clear of this guy. The bottom line between a buyer and a seller (long distance transactions) is that communication needs to be consistently occurring until the transaction is complete and both parties are satisified.

Thats not true unless the package description doesn't match up to whats being shipped. I've ordered many things from the US and it takes 1 day max to go through customs.
