I recently bought a throw thats been on my grail list for a while(on a popular bst). Im not going to mention what i purchased or who i purchased it from, but here’s the issue. This individual had somewhere around a dozen throws for sale. I paid handsomely for what i wanted. He told me he wanted to wait for some more to sell so he could ship all at once. I understand that and his original esimste was that weekend. That time frame tranlates to 4 days or so. Here we are at 12 days since i sent my funds and it hasnt been sent. He has been in contact and is fairly involved in the community so i dont think he is a scammer. I am a bit upset. What do y’all think? How would you handle it? ---

IMO he’s at fault. His reasoning would stand for like a week at max, but after that period he should’ve gone ahead and shipped your purchase. Personally, I ship either same or next day, and if I can’t, I’ll make it clear to the buyer when exactly I’ll be able to ship before the purchase is made. ---

I’m spoiled by folks getting packages out the door + tracking info back to me within a day or two. I wouldn’t put up with a 12 day delay unless I had specifically agreed to that ahead of time because someone was going on vacation for a bit. And by “not put up with” I’d ask for a refund. You can always buy it later when they’re actually willing to ship it. ---

Sounds like crap to me. Why on earth would he have to wait to ship at once? There is no savings. I’d ask to have my item shipped immediately or refund my money. ---

Almost 2 weeks since payment with no shipment is far far too long IMO. Hope this transactions is resolved with a positive outcome. ---

> [@Jedillama](#): > > More than that from what i gather. The other person that reached out bought 3. With my purchase that makes a minimum of 4. Id figure more than that Get on top of it now. Contact the seller and if they don’t provide actual provable tracking, contact your CC company. This looks like you’re being scammed. ---

Hope it works out for you. 12 days is far too long. When I sell items on eBay and such, I always ship next business day. Making it clear that if the item is purchased on a weekend it will be shipped Monday. ---

The only way this would remotely be acceptable is if the person said “hey I gotta go on vacation but I will ship your stuff out right after that”. 12 days to ship? No way. 2-3 _MAX_. ---

Same here. Its just common courtesy and a responsibility you take on when you put things up for sale. ---
