Yup - had that happen on another site - said the MO was in the mail - this was about a year ago - still haven't got the MO or heard from the scammer - glad I didn't ship the item on his word.

Communication with each other is the key to a good sale or trade. I always let either my buyer or the seller know what I'm doing and what to expect. If I'm sending a bow, I let the other person know when it was shipped, when to expect delivery and give them a tracking number so they too will know and have confidence in the sale or trade. On the expected day of delivery, I can tell if the item was delivered and then send a note asking for confirmation from them regarding the delivery. Some folks think I may be a little anal about this, but it all comes down to confidence, assurance and trust with the person your have never met and are dealing with. A persons good name and reputation on this site is everything. Y'all take care now, ya' hear?

Sometimes it takes a while.  Two guys on here are waiting for money orders I sent on the 2nd.  Hope it was the holiday that slowed the delivery.

I have never had a problem sending a MO before.  Guess we will see.

There is a good lesson to be learned via this thread that needs to be well heeded by all.
