<p>[QUOTE="David Kaufman, post: 1843925, member: 64505"]If you"live in the sticks" as we say in "the sticks", things might move slowly but tax returns seem to make it in on time. Shipping and handling time estimates are as simple as the plan to sell the item. The USPS may have its issues but they are professionals and only want your packages to arrive safely. The seller knows where he lives and how long it will take to "handle and ship" the item. If the seller has neglected to list the item correctly or has failed to comply with the shipping policy that they themselves set, they are liable. Not the buyer. If I purchase something and money has changed hands, I expect it in my hands within the stated time. </p><p> Suppose a 100 oz. silver bar was to arrive on Tuesday with the silver spot price of 25 and it hasn't even shipped. It shows up three weeks after promised delivery and the price has dropped to 15. The money changed hands weeks ago and yet..... The point is that the seller and the buyer have obligations. The listing is a "contract" that both the seller and the buyer are agreeing to. Both need to fulfill their obligations. One of which, for the seller, is to ship within a stated time frame. </p><p> Three weeks is a decade in the Ebay market. </p><p>IMHO[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
