Yes I do have a tracking # now. I am expecting devivery tommorow at three. I want to let you know I was very patient. mike Dillon said he was shipping the next day and 2 weeks later I still could not get a response or traching # He did not ship and he didnot respond for 2 weeks. I sent a phone # and told him to call. Nothing happened till I posted Mike

Hey fellas, this is not the place to bring your fight, but if I'm buying from a seller from ebay, and they say cashiers check or money order and item will be shiupped faster, they should have it ready to ship even before the auction , so you both lose, good luck next time.

FYI: The base was listed as the correct one. However, those curb signs always used those monster socony bases.

Ok everyone. The money did arrive today. I now have a refund and this mess is over as far as I am concerned.As for using this site . that post was the only thing that got him to e-mail me, this man has great feedback so Im sure he doen't treat everyone this way.So I consider the matter closed .
Thanks for helping me get my money back Mike Burnett

dr dent,i apologize for the inconvienence i caused you.Even thou i was on vacation til the 31st i should have stopped and crated up the sign and sent it right when i returned.when i returned i left again thinking i would still get it out to you on time.I could have taken your # and called but i didnt.Hope you except my apology, M Dillon.

It looks like this thing has been settled. I'll delete the other thread on this matter as requested.
To summarize, Mr. Burnett bought a sign that did not make it's eBay reserve from Mr. Dillon of Las Cruces, New Mexico. Payment was sent, but Mr. Dillon went on vacation as he advised Mr. Burnett. When he returned from his trip, Mr. Dillon chose to not ship the sign and went on another trip. Mr Burnett sent many emails and attempted phone calls with no response. After the situation was put on this forum, Mr. Dillon was motivated to reconcile the complaint of an undelivered sign. He has refunded the payment and apologized.

A couple of lessons for everyone:
In this Internet age, it seems like most people want everything right now. An answer to an email or a purchased product shipped right now. All of us, including me, need to respond in a prompt manner to those who are doing business with us. Unanswered email and dodged phone calls cause suspicion and panic. Items should be ready to ship when they are offered for auction or for sale.
On the other side, patience is often sacrificed in the expectation of Internet speed. Remember that even honest people don't always respond to email right away and that circumstances may slow the shipping of items from time to time.

The Golden Rule applies here. Put yourself in the other guy's shoes. How would you feel then?
