Yeah, what Skonnie said or air it out in the bad sellers if a decent amount of time has passed (I say, a few weeks of trying to resolve the matter).
Then blast away if you have tried numerous attempts to resolve and they just are not responding or resolving.

I think the opposite is true of paypal, if you use a checking account it is supposedly instantaneous, a credit card can take a while to process. Paypal is jerking me around right now for a feebay fork brace that was faulty and told me it could take a month to get my money back from them to my debit card.

Just a +1 for Bill though he obviously needs no more backing up. He always responded to my requests and sent multiple pics in what I always felt like was a timely manner and I was just a tire kicker.

I really am sorry to everyone on this site!!! The main point was just dropping me a line to say what we should do next. The E-mail I sent you Bill was what address you gave me. Gmail tried 3 times to contact you, but was refused. If you gave me the wrong E-mail address ,how do I know? I wasn't worried about the time, but as a seller I wanted you to have your money as fast as possible. What confused me even more, was when I went to PayPal.com and the payment was posted, but unclaimed. Then in one of the post you asked me if I still wanted the air box. If your sending the air box , then please tell me how to pay for it. It was never about the money or your reputation. I some time's do jump the gun, part of being OCD.

Again I apologize to all the members on this site, and won't bother you any more.


To all how have not made mistakes in their lives. 
Thanks again for info on my restoration.   Bob

I bet this whole ordeal was caused by dude typing the email address wrong.

Well, the site has been moved recently and that caused a lot of email problems. I think an appology to Bill was in order. It was given. Thats all a person can do at this point. No need to leave the site forever though Bob. people get pissy here all the time. Terry will usually come along and line them out. ;)

I am sorry for any and all problems I've caused. I wholeheartedly apologize to Bill for any misunderstanding. The emails I sent you through Gmail were refused three times. Without you contacting me in some way, I had no idea why there was a problem. I had no problem with time, I understand it takes time when selling things. I sent the money to the E-mail address you gave me. Unless your bell south email address is wrong. When you asked me if I still wanted the air box, and it was ready to ship, I overreacted. Comes with OCD. I wanted you to follow-up with me so I could make sure you got your money. Sometimes people like me #$%*-up. I know I'm not perfect.

I ordered from you because of reputation.
So you have my apology ,  Bob




















































If you would email me at bobpapin@Gmail.com , and give your address to me, I'll mail you a check to cover cost. When check arrives , then send box.  Thanks Bob. I found out today that my debit card was hacked.

Welcome to the human race! In order for me to completely avoid making mistakes I would not be allowed to get out of bed in the morning... which would be a mistake in itself since I wouldn't be going to work (THAT would suck) so the bills wouldn't get paid, and I'd end up living on the street.  :(

So I get up every day and just try not to make to big a fool of myself!  ;) 8)

Stick around and enjoy the fun Bob. Yeah you jumped the gun on someone in an open forum but the key thing is that once things got sorted out you apologized on that same open forum. Like madmtnmotors said, welcome to the human race.

The next thing is I hope you get paypal sorted out. The reason I say that is because once I sent money to someone via paypal and right after I hit the enter key I realized I mistyped that persons email and promptly cancelled that payment. Luckily that misspelled email wasn't registered with paypal so no none actually got it however it still took about a week for paypal to put the $ back into my account.
