AngryI've been waiting patiently for two weeks for an order from E-Bay to arrive. It was outside my usual cut off but I really liked the Great American series so I ordered an almost complete set from an E-Bay seller and ended up getting the Transportation series this morning. I know mistakes happen so I sent him a message and am holding back on feedback for a little while. I imagine I'll end up with a refund when what I really want is the series of stamps.
EDIT: five minutes after I sent the message I got the following back!!

"Take my advice, don't get old!!! You can keep the transpo, my apologies, and I am sending out your great americans today.... Mike"


I was going to delete this post but I decided to let it stand. I'm not angry any more!! Mike handled the problem very well. By the way, my message to him in the first case was not confrontational - it really doesn't pay to be nasty!

re: really ticked off!!

I know the feeling, i was supposed to receive an Italian stamp that I need it to complete a page somewhere between 8/8 and 8/13 and here we are and no stamp yet.
This is the message I sent:

" As of today, this stamp has not arrived.
"



and this is the reply I received:

"It went out on the 5th, so it's slow. Please let me know if it still hasn't arrived by this time next week."



The problem now is that we are leaving on vacation overseas for a month and there would be no way for me to
tell weather the stamp arrived or not, by then the return privilege, if need it, would have expired.

Actually, getting the wrong series was a benefit to me. I found three versions of the transportation series that I didn't have. Sometimes good things can actually pop out of mistakes. I'll make sure I buy from this person again!!

re: really ticked off!!

This happened to me, Ebay sent me the wrong lot of stamps. I was contacted and they wanted me to return the stamps. I asked about the stamp I ordered.
They said they didn't know where it was. I pointed out they had a no return policy. I told them I'll keep what they sent me unless I get my order, then I'd send the wrong lot back. About a week or two later I got the lot I ordered, and returned the their lot.
