How long to wait?

Post by Glytch »

I'm starting to get doubts about a recent trade of mine. Payment has already been made, the trader said he shipped on 01/22/03 (no tracking # - sent media mail). It only has to go from NY to OH, but am I jumping the gun here? Thx in advance for advice :) .

Yeah, I think you should be ok.. Media mail is just slow as hell.. I ordered a DVD on December 03, 2002 and didn't get it until December 26, 2002.. So yeah, it's prolly just taking it's time.. lol.. Hope all turns out well.. eGo

Thanks for the reply, it's reassuring to hear Media Mail is "slow as hell" :) . If anyone else reading this has had much experience with Media Mail, I'd like to hear your opinion as well. Thx again.

Ok then, on to the next question. How many days is too many days? And what should my next step of action be if it doesn't show up?

It took 20 days for my DVD don't know if it can take longer, but I wouldn't expect it any sooner.. After that, send the guy and email and let him know you didn't get it.. See what he says. eGo
