I need a little advice. I entered into a deal with a user here on the May 12th. He agreed to buy some Cisco switches I had for sale. He has great heatware and I have dealt with him before. We exchanged info and I sent out the swatches first as I don't have any heatware.
The switches where sent out May 13th. He received them May 16th. I sent a PM asking if he received them. I got a response on May 19th that he had and would test them the next day. On the 20th he sends me another PM saying he can't test them until Thursday. Ok fine whatever. I don't hear back from him until May 26th saying he needed one more day. At this point I am a little a annoyed but again whatever. On the 27th He says the check is in the mail. (Yes he sent me a check. Which was fine cause I have dealt with him before and has 160+ heat.)
On the 30th he sends me a PM saying one of the switches is bad and not to cash the check. I did test both switches and they were fine when sent. I agreed and he also put a stop payment on it. I asked him to ship it back. He agreed. In the time since this deal has been going on I signed up with a Google checkout. I asked if he could please pay via Google check out. He said that would not be a problem. I don't hear from him all weekend until the morning of the 2nd. Saying he will pay me when he sends the "drive" back. I PM'ed him again asking if he could please pay me now. This time I don't hear from him until tonight saying he is paying right now. Well it's been 3 hours and I still don't have money for the good switch.
I have done everything I can to keep good communications open. I feel the communication is slowly dropping off on his end now that he has my switches. This deal was for a lot of money over $2000. Am I being to paranoid or are my fears founded?
Sorry for the long post.
