Paypal for Zip Drives

ShamusMcConnelly was the Seller on February 11, 2003 AnandTech

We agreed on a deal and I paid via Paypal immediately, expecting prompt shipment.
That was 1/11. I sent an email within the next few days to check on shipping status, no reply.
- 1/20 I sent another email regarding shipping status,
- 1/21 he replied back saying he had not shipped yet due to family issues. That was fine by me, an understandable delay.
- 1/31 again I contacted him about the package, with no reply from him.
- 2/4 I sent my first angry email regarding this issue, asking for better communication.
- 2/5 He replied back saying it was shipped, but immediately offered a refund. Saying he was busy with work.
- I accepted the offer of a refund via Paypal on 2/6.
As of this writing 2/12 I have no refund and he has ignored PM's asking about the status if that refund.
He is actively posting/selling (during this whole timeline) so I know he has made a decision to put off this issue.
I do not think he is a troll but he has very poor communication/trading ethics. If I were to deal with him again it would be on a ship first basis only. Personally if I had another persons money for well over a month, and that person had not received what was due him. I would make every effort to properly communicate. If you have the time to post at the forums you can surly find the time to write a quick PM. If he did not have the cash to pay me back a simple PM would go a long way! That is why this is a Negative eval.
The first I have given out in 200+ deals.

I purchased 4 Compaq HDs. I shipped first.

Shamus had multiple problems trying to get the HDs shipped to me. It took ~3 weeks to get the drives, and he shipped overnight, instead of ground, as compensation. Communications were ok, he was having ISP issues. I would deal with him again, but I would ask him to ship first on the next deal.

I bought a Compaq laptop from Shamus.

GREAT seller! Shipped right away, and it arrived in great condition. The board had one stubborn mounting screw/bolt stuck in it, and didn't come with any cables (I don't think I asked) but it works flawlessly, and the cosmetic problem is fine. A++ product from a great guy! I wouldn't hesitate to buy from him again.
