Paypal for Zip Drives

ShamusMcConnelly was the Seller on February 11, 2003 AnandTech

We agreed on a deal and I paid via Paypal immediately, expecting prompt shipment.
That was 1/11. I sent an email within the next few days to check on shipping status, no reply.
- 1/20 I sent another email regarding shipping status,
- 1/21 he replied back saying he had not shipped yet due to family issues. That was fine by me, an understandable delay.
- 1/31 again I contacted him about the package, with no reply from him.
- 2/4 I sent my first angry email regarding this issue, asking for better communication.
- 2/5 He replied back saying it was shipped, but immediately offered a refund. Saying he was busy with work.
- I accepted the offer of a refund via Paypal on 2/6.
As of this writing 2/12 I have no refund and he has ignored PM's asking about the status if that refund.
He is actively posting/selling (during this whole timeline) so I know he has made a decision to put off this issue.
I do not think he is a troll but he has very poor communication/trading ethics. If I were to deal with him again it would be on a ship first basis only. Personally if I had another persons money for well over a month, and that person had not received what was due him. I would make every effort to properly communicate. If you have the time to post at the forums you can surly find the time to write a quick PM. If he did not have the cash to pay me back a simple PM would go a long way! That is why this is a Negative eval.
The first I have given out in 200+ deals.

I purchased 4 Compaq HDs. I shipped first.

Shamus had multiple problems trying to get the HDs shipped to me. It took ~3 weeks to get the drives, and he shipped overnight, instead of ground, as compensation. Communications were ok, he was having ISP issues. I would deal with him again, but I would ask him to ship first on the next deal.

We discussed the trade via email then I called and we talked on the phone. I got a feeling that I could trust Jake with my stuff and shipped. He found everything in working order and shipped me the laptop. Communication was key to this deal and I'd do business with Jake again any time. Thanks Bro*****
