I think that if you bought parts after you joined the forum,it is a bit early to be calling people out. This is a vacation holiday after all.
I sold all of my sweptline trucks,except the invisible one. I just couldn't stand to see it go!

I get what ur saying about how the holiday weekend.. but dude had constant communication before the sale..and as soon as I paid.. he went blank.. he replied once or twice..
Communication stopped when I asked for a tracking number... sent email, pm'd him with messenger and even emailed him... maybe I'm just paranoid.. but at the least when I have sold something..I made sure the purchaser recuerdo a tracking number... so I wouldn't have no bullshit.. ...but that's just me...

Yea that's him, paid him about 0400 on Thursday morning, he confirm2d reciepts of payment, he said he shipped it because I asked for a tracking number..he replied two days later saying he gave me one, that I should check my messages...I did that..and didn't have anything... I figured (if my purchaser can't find it, why not resend it)... I gave him email, cell number, this forum to contact me...

So 3 days after u paid Dan, u come here calling him a flake, a mofo and demand he give u your parts. And 2 of those days are holiday weekend days. That's :bs Chill out dude!
"constant communication before the sale..and as soon as I paid.. he went blank.. he replied once or twice..

You're nagging like an old hag!
I've done biz with and known Dan for 10 yrs. Sold him many parts and always got paid promptly. Never had any bad experiences.
It is absurd that u would immediately go off like this without cause. I've sold and shipped hundreds of parts to guys all over the country. Its a pain in the @#% to deal with the packing and hauling to the shipper and can take a few days to fit into life since it sure as hell isn't a money maker and interferes with paying work. If u had reacted like this to a deal with me, I would send your $ back and tell u what to do with them. If you're lucky, Dan won't do the same.

Well as a purchaser he sounds great... but as a seller I do have some reservations.... and yeah I'm gonna call him or anyone out that I'm MY OPINION seems shady... being green on t hi is page doesn't mean I should suck it up and take the bull... if that's how u act ... then that's u... and like I said before.. dude mentioned he sent a message with the info I asked... and I specifically said I didn't get anything..how conveniente that all of a sudden... there is no means of communication... yea..ok.

Sometimes it is better to be quiet and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt.
Hint... this is one of those times.

Man, can't a guy go camping on Labor Day weekend???

This is the seller, Not sure what this guys issue is. He paid by paypal on Sept 01, i shipped the parts on Sept 01 through FedEx and sent the guy the tracking number and PM'd here with the tracking information. Couple hours later he wanted an update which i ignored because i was camping. Then he sent me another PM and he seemed irritated so i replied via PM and let him know that i already sent him the tracking information and that he needs to read his messages. Fedex said your parts would take 3 days so they should arrive on tuesday.

caliswept, i sent you another PM with tracking information. I have also included the tracking information here so there will be no doubt that i actually sent you the package.

U stepped out of line the instant u made your first post, calling Dan a mofo, a flake and demanding he give u your parts.
There are numerous ways u could have worded your inquiry without disparaging a long time member here and making an @#% out of yourself. If u really want to own up, you'll apologize, examine your unfounded name-calling tactics and refrain from such in the future.
We'll wait, and as u said earlier today, "see where this goes".

This is an example of a reason why people refrain from selling to new members or selling at all. It appears that Moparbay did everything right and Caliswept had unreasonable expectations for Holiday weekend shipping scenario.

I'll lock and leave up for review but I'll consult and remove in order to leave Moparbay selling reputation where it should be (without negative feedback).

OK....
You're paranoid.
And "what not" ..... :shame

I'm with the others. You waltzed in here and landed
hard on a years long forum member. You chose not
to give him the benefit of the doubt over a holiday
weekend. You want instant service and response??
I'd suggest sticking to Amazon Prime. Most all of
us have full time jobs... or more...
