I know that I'm fairly new to the board and I don't post much but I find that there are a large number of posts about mail-order.
If they were short posts for instance just asking - hey is this guy legit - that's fine, then you can go on your merry way and do what you want with the information provided. These type of posts may slip under the radar (if that is any concern at all).
However, for people to go rambling back and forth about when they mailed, how long they've been waiting, who's not replying to their e-mails, who mails to the US (yeah that's a good one!) - gets a bit much.
Don't these people realize that they are not the only ones waiting and possible the "mailer" might actually have a job other than putting your little packages together. Maybe they only check their mail at night - or whatever.
I have to avail myself of these services and yes sometimes it is hard to wait and not wonder that your money got lost or the guys ignoring you - but I have the realization that I'm NOT THE ONLY PERSON ON THE PLANET!
I'm not surprised that the turnaround for this business is high if these are the kind of idiots they're dealing with. If you can't be patient or you get too paranoid over the whole thing - then don't use mail order and leave it for the rest of us so that we have a viable source.
thanks for letting me rant - does anyone agree?
