This was not a pretty deal! I sent a money order to the seller in Colorado, which is the state right next door to me. After two WEEKS, I got an email saying he didn't have my address (even though I had PM'd it and sent it with the money order envelope).
I took quite a few unfruitful trips to my post office box to pick the rack up, because the seller wouldn't acknowledge my requests for when he was going to ship. I guess the reason he never answered my emails was that the rack had gotten crushed in his shipping department somewhere along the line. I found this out just short of a month into this deal.
He just sent me my own money order (which was still made out to him) with a PM note saying "sorry, the rack got crushed and I'm sure you don't want that". I sent him a note asking him to at least have the money order reissued to me (as I've never had someone send a M/O back to me with their name on it - actually, it was no problem cashing it, as the sender or the receiver either one can cash it). I never got any response to this or a few other notes I sent him.
I know things can happen with deals, but I feel I should have either had the rack prior to the problem, or I should have been made aware of the problem as soon as it happened. I don't think the seller did anything devious like most of the bad deals we're seeing on the boards these days. I just don't think he did good business, and won't be wasting my time with anything else he has for sale. Sorry for the "venting", but I bought the rack on the forum and I think the forum members should know when sellers don't follow through with their deals...
