I normally respond to the buyer withing 12 hours, that allows for times when
I'm on an onsite job or my alloted 4 hours for sleep. I always try to stay
on top of the auctions but I've had sellers repsond to me as buyer as late
as 5 days but they did have a good explanation (in the hospital or moving).
I have had only one little "dork" (for lack of a better word) as a buyer
post negative on me that he got junk when I actually sent him a better unit
than was posted. I've heard he's done this to others too and we've all come
to the conclusion that he's got junk around and buys good units cheap, then
wants a refund on a phoney charge that it's not "as advertised" and he
sends
the crappy one he had before the auction back to the buyer. I didn't go for
it as I openly post "sales final" on my auctions as I'm not a friggin'
retail store. Even at that this "polbit" character posts negative but with
over 155 excellent posts I don' think one will hurt, especially since it's
already buried deep in the rest of the feedback. He posted "buyer beware"
when it's actually "seller beware of buyer". All in a lifetime I guess.

Relax... Not everyone is on their system 24/7.
I've done business
MacVizion and they are a reputable seller. e-bay sellers typically take
up to three BUSINESS days to respond. Also, the note they sent you
appears to answer your question...
"Shipping cost will be $6.00 in the continental US Via US
Postal
Service"
Psst.
1. I'm in Canada.
2. Mike Ford, that auction ended on *thursday night of 19th*,
friday was 20th.
That seller should have put a notice stating "shipping in States
only". Fact is, he didn't say this limitation and ebay is open to
whole world. Ebay always says to sellers and buyers to please
contact each other asap after the conclusion of this auction.
Only that, seller isn't responding in reasonably manner so I'm
waiting for his last chance on Monday.
Milt sells lot of bunch and he always keep interested buyers up and
up if he is busy or whatever.
Cheers,
Wizard
