Perspective

[special-K]

Burnsman had a part for sale and I jumped right on it,got the postal money order out the next morning.After a few weeks it hadn`t made it there,$85.He said he`s had funds take a month,so we gave more time.After 4-5 weeks we figure it`s not showing up.Now...he could think I was B.S. and I could wonder if he actually got it.I don`t want to give up the part.If it was lost in the mail he shouldn`t be inconvenienced while the post office investigates.I decided to trust him and lay out another $85 postal money order while the p.o. investigates.So,now I`m out $170+$2.10 for two money orders+$5.00 for them to investigate themselves+$.82 for two stamps=$177.92 for an $85 part with free shipping,until it get`s worked out.If someone forged and cashed the money order then I have that hole mess to deal with.
We should be grateful for every smooth transaction and not take them for granted.Alot can happen.
