I paid on Jan 02

We've been communicating since Jan 03, then suddenly I lost contact with him, are you murdered? Hello?

I've been waitng for 3 days, nothing, I've sent him emails, but no returns after Jan 03, no tracking numbers of any sort, I'm going to wait 1 more day, then it's a phone call to CC company and filing claim with Paypal and ur heatware is gonna take it hard too pal

I'm sorry, but I've had a busy week and I haven't been able to ship it yet. I a set a time to ship it tomorrow so it should be at the post office no later than noon. I'll be on the road for four hours after I drop it off and once I get to my destination (Baton Rouge) I'll send you the tracking number. I'm very sorry about the delay.

y? It's probably not his real name if he's a real Troll

And if he's not?

Edit: I don't think he's trolling. According to his heat, he has done business with a member here and he even shipped first. Maybe he had an emergency of some sort?
 
You lost contact 3 days ago, and he did mentioned he was leaving out of town. I would give him a couple of more days at least. He is probably out of town with no internet access.

Edit: Looking at his heat, I wouldve asked for a 50/50 deal, half payment now, half payment once the card arrives. San Fran to Baton Rouge is a bit of a trip, so hopefully its just a no internet access where he can give you an update situation.
