It appears to me that the issue is not the method of shipping but the seller not completing his end of the transaction after he has received payment for an item. Mr. Wilson I hope you can help him get his shipping orders complete before more ugly post about him are made here on FTE.

Hi John - Just to clarify, CS65 may be the nicest guy in the world and I dont begrudge the person, only his sense of business professionalism. My posts are not directed at the person and are being posted to let other members know of an issue with a seller / entity using FTE as a selling platform. Thanks for your support.

Eureka...

Update: FINALLY received a tracking number. Package shipped late last night according to the nice woman at Grehound in Olympia WA that I had to call to find out and then moments later Don texted me with the tracking number. Man that was easy....I'll post again when I get the package.

I think it will be much harder to find parts

I sold a 65' grill and lower apron I told the buyer I would not ship because of possible damage, the buyer gave the cash 3-4 months ago and just now picked them up I guess some people are in a hurry and some are not

Wow...really? I think some people do what they say they will do and some dont. I did what I said I would do on my end. BTW - Im not in a "hurry" but arrangements are required on my end to receive the shipment and I dont inconvenience those that help me out. Doubt it will be hard for me to buy parts from people that conduct business professionally. I've had several transactions with several folks on here in the past, no issue at all.

Running into the same issue.... he has had my money for almost 4 weeks now i believe... and hasnt been in contact for 2 weeks or so. I understand stuff happens, but you would think a simple text would be easy enough. Guess not
