Default Paid for wheels, no communication!

Need some help. I sent a cashiers check to a forum member over 2 weeks ago for some chrome wagon wheels. The seller was ordering new wheels from House of Wheels and was going to ship the wagons as soon as his new ones came in. We have been in contact up until last Thursday when he sent me an e-mail asking me to call him. I have called and left multiple messages, e-mailed, and sent a pm. No response. I don't want to post his name since I don't know his situation and am sensitive to unexpected things in life. I just want the wheels or my money back so I can hunt for another set! What do you guys think?

Bryan

How long are you willing to wait is the question. I would start to worry if someone had my money and didn't return my calls. Give it a few days and post who he is if you still don't hear from him.

I'd wait a day then post his name if he hasn't contacted you. Give him a chance to respond.

Luckily not the same guy. I hope I get the wheels I paid for or at least get my money back. In all my dealings on the forum, I have had nothing but perfect transactions so far!

Give him a week total time since you last heard from him (that would be until Thursday). If no response either through E-mail or phone, then post away. That should be long enough to respond. Good luck getting this resolved.

Well...it's not hard to figure out who it is considering you posted in his sale thread this morning and it's a dozen or so down!

That was the plan. The last I heard from him he sent me the tracking number for his new wheels. Then he told me to call him. So I did...many times along with e-mail and pm. No response. Maybe they will just show up at my door one day soon....

The wheels were supposed to ship last Thursday--the day he disappeared. I will give it until this Thursday at which time I will post the name and location of the seller. Thanks for all the help everyone!

dndrsn, you and Joe Diver must have graduated at the top of your class! I deleted my remarks from the seller's original post to give him a fair chance to respond.
