Regardless of him having 100+ heat, an agree to cross-ship is an agreement nonetheless.

He broke the agreement.

If he wasn't comfortable shipping first, he shouldn't have done the deal.

As I always say... a neutral is NOT BAD. It's not good, but it's surely not a mark of shame like a negative is.

I wouldn't buy the "drives were missed by USPS" bullcrap, either. It's amazing how many times things get "lost" or "stolen" or "sent back" when you don't have an excuse for shipping late.... HMMMM.

I once had a guy that agreed to cross ship an item to me... sent me my item in the exact same box I sent his to him in, flipped inside out. I could even see my handwriting on the inside of the box. I should have left a neutral, but it wasn't a big deal because I wasn't in a rush to get the item.

Indeed you do.

Profile and valid email (non-free) must be displayed.

Shame on you, OP, but it's beside the point.

Granted, the deal was a month ago. He could've disabled it after the deal was done.

I believe I did, at the time. I have nothing for sale currently, and don't feel the need to have my info searchable by people outside AT

He should have communicated better, you did get your stuff, so really your not out anything except a small wait, I would note the concern though in the comments.

I say neutral or positive, cut the guy a little slack unless there are notes indicating similar problems.

Why not ship out the 18th?

Dec. 18 is a sunday, the post office is closed on sunday

Most POs have an automated system you can use.

Also, the other trader said it was shipped out on the 17th. Why lie about that?

No offense, but if people took your approach, there would be no notes indicating similar problems.

The other trader broke his word. I would want to know about that if I was dealing with him.
