What do I do?!?!!?
Ok heres the deal. As some of you know I bought a 6-speed for $750. Well I sent the check on Monday (NC to MD), so I'm assuming it got there Wed. Tues night I emailed Dan (dan666man@aol.com) and asked if he'd got it yet. No response. Thursday I emailed him again, and asked him to email me telling me what's going on, if he got the check etc. Now it's friday night, still no response. Do I just wait? I work p/t making 6.5/hr so $750 is like 8 months of saving up. HELP

call 20 times a day every day? As long as they havent cashed it yet then dont start freaking they dont usually do that until they ship the stuff out at most places so if its not cashed they probably havent gotten to it yet.

Chill out for a couple days. He might be out of town for the 4th or something. I usually give people a week of leeway from the day I expect the payment to get there before I start getting suspicious, and usually more around a holiday.

Also if you sent a regular check (instead of money order or certified check) most people won't ship until the check clears. That way THEY don't get scammed by somebody writing a bad check. I always send a money order when I don't use PayPal.
