I gotta throw my two cents in......
I think the INSTANT you receive someones money, the item you sold becomes THEIRS. Only in situations where the money is NOT guaranteed funds (personal check) should THEIR parts be held for more than one day. If you do not have time to ship it immediately after the payment is received, then wait until you HAVE time to ship it BEFORE you advertise it. I would not consider you a scammer for a delay, but I certainly believe it is a reflection upon the way you conduct your business. I am amazed at the folks that put the money in their pocket and wait to ship a mans stuff! The item in question should be packaged/crated and ready for delivery even BEFORE you sell it. You know you have to ship it, why not have it ready? Lastly, someone would be foolish, or very, very cheap to not use a tracking number and insurance. A simple form of protection for both parties, not to mention it shows your intent in satisfying the buyer. I have never been a believer in not shipping right away. I do not care if it is the holidays, your birthday or anything short of a family emergency. You ACCEPTED THE CASH, now it is time to send the man his parts.
I do not believe this particular item was shipped simply due to the evasive tactics in giving up the tracking/shipping number when asked MANY times. We would have NEVER seen this thread if a tracking number had been used.
