eBay update: Sent an eBay message to the seller asking if they received my payment and if the item was shipped and would he send along a tracking notice. (notice all items requested, received money, shipped... etc)
He wrote back saying my item was shipped on Tuesday because Monday was a holiday.
As usual, they neglected the other half of my message. This person has a 100% positive feedback rating on eBay. How the hell does that happen. I'm considering not giving feedback at all, or neutral, or maybe negative.
