Ok, I know everyone's going to hate me for my opinion, but here's what I think. I think Dion did send the money and that Adol (Andre Hodos) did get the money and send the game off to Dion.
Now, having done business with Adol once before, I know what it's like. About a year ago, I bought a UK Clamshell copy of Evolution on NGPC from him for $90. It normally takes about a week to send cash off to France where Adol lives. So, about a week and a half pass and I hear nothing. No big deal..just I think I should have heard SOMETHING. So, I emailed him..just to see if he got my money. I can quote EXACTLY what he replied to my question:
"YES! AND IT IS SENT!!"
Hm, I guess I must have pissed him off or something. I didn't reply to that email. So, about another two weeks pass and I FINALLY get my game. Yeah, it's in good condition, works, nothing wrong with it. My problem with the deal was this:
It took WAAAAAAY too long!! Damn near a month. I think that if you ship something international, you ought to at least get Global Priority...a measly $10 which I would have gladly paid. If you did this with all your customers, you wouldn't have your unsatisfactory feedback profile with over 50 negatives...no doubt most of them dealing with items getting lost in the mail. I hardly doubt EVERYONE on your feedback profile was telling the complete truth. But, c'mon! Over 50 (!!!) negatives!!!!? I don't think you could possibly explain that away, Andre.
Sure, you're a decent seller. My only problem with you is the way you ship your items. I could say a lot more about you (information acquired from my very good ebay friend Yawara) but, I won't.
As far as Dion goes...I actually bet he DID NOT get the game. It's probably still in the mail collecting dust in the unregistered mail section. Maybe, in a couple of weeks, it may arrive at his door. You never know.
