Maybe he found a hot babe, and they eloped to Vegas to tie the knot.
Let the guy have a peaceful honeymoon.
Don’t badger the guy too bad, or he might just send two “used” prophylactics on the scope as lens covers.

As Tom said ... some of us have perpetually flashing envelopes. Hope this worked out.

Well he’s made contact and said estimated delivery date Friday. Well it’s Friday and it’s not here. He lives 3hrs from my house. Hard to believe it wouldn’t show up. I have guns shipped across the US in 3 days.

Safe to assume payment was via gift so a hold can't be put on the funds?

I am waiting for an order from Pittsburgh, Pa 1.5 hours from my house. It went to Zelienople, Pa on 11/11, then Grove City, Oh, then to Clinton, Pa, now to West Sunbury, Pa post office this morning. SHOULD be at my house tomorrow. 5 days, hundreds of miles..... Be patient man, I'd be hesitant to sell to anyone so anxious and quick to call someone out.

Hello folks,
Unfortunately at times, my career path takes me on unforeseen travel, the kind where I don’t have days, but hours to get to my departing flight, and my wife mailed the product for me. This is no excuse, I should have relayed the information and kept communication flowing. That said, truthfully it slipped my mind, period- and that’s on me.
I am just seeing this thread now, and realistically am absolutely dumbfounded by it. The sent correspondence from the buyer was never seen, what prompted me to look was an email stating I had a message, plain and simple. If anyone believes a 2-7 VX- Freedom Worth $140 would ruin my buy/sell reputation they have simply lost their marbles. Plain and simple- put your hand on your ass, the products on its way.

Oh, and by the way. Before it is said by the op, the scope did not arrive yesterday. I would bet the farm though, it’s at his doorstep today. Just wanted to raise awareness before the National Guard is called.

Some of you guys kill me sometimes with your defense of regulars when a deal looks like it might go sideways.
I guess if it was your dough floating in the wind and the seller had gone silent for days after lots of communication up front, you'd just not worry. Whatever.
I don't do business the way the seller has here no matter which side of the transaction I'm on. I have always found that things go much smoother when you keep in touch. Yeah, chit happens sometimes but around here your word is your reputation. So if there is a delay, wouldn't you let the other party know? I'm glad the seller finally chimed in and I hope this deal is fine but for fooks sake, for some of us a couple hundred bucks is still a lot of dough and words not kept meaningful.
Flame away if you want but I can speak from experience, Winchester88 is a good guy. And I'd bet a bunch of people reading this thread have had good deals with him too.

The fact is, I completely understand Winchester’s frustration. I chimed in as soon as I could, and told him the scenario. I accept responsibility of lack of communication- no more, no less and realize the frustration.. I can’t blame the fellow, it’s on me. Scope was mailed, and I offered to refund his money until arrival.
