What would you do?

Just wanted some opinions. I recently bought a Jato roller from a member of this site(Aug. 10). I paid paypal(also Aug 10) and he said it would ship as soon as he got the money. Well 5 days later (Aug 15) he said he sent it, and that he had been grounded from the computer, that's why he hadn't been in contact. Aug 17 I get a request from this kid for my address again, saying he had forgotten to send something, and didn't elaborate. Aug 20 he sent me a PM asking if I had received it yet, and of course I had not. This truck is coming from Ohio to Virginia Beach, a 3 day maximum trip. Contact with this kid has been hit or miss, and I only seem to get a reply when I send an email to the address where my money went(I am assuming it is his parents'). Am I being impatient? What would you guys do?

It took me almost 2 weeks to get something US Parcel Post , which is like the slowest ever, but Ground would only take 5 days if that to go from Florida to California.

I just waited 13 days on a used engine mount to go from NJ to me in Houston. That was 1st class USPS.

Ask how it was sent (first class, ground, 3rd class etc) using that email address you think is his parents. They may have sent it cheaply which means you may be OK, just need to wait a little more. It may not have been mailed until after 17th when he contacted you for your address again. Some people take their sweet time to send you your stuff.

Hope it all works out.
