Dealing with unscrupulous eBayers across the border

...both publicly and privately.

I get the feeling the guy I'm dealing with is jerking me around, but I'll eventually lose my temper and a little hair, and get my item anyway.

Here's what he wrote today (finally -- note we're pushing two months after he acknowledged receipt of payment)

Hi Jeff,

I just returned home after being out of town for 2 weeks to find this email and also a torn up dinged box with your [item] in it. It liked like it had went through a warzone. Thankfully the cards were not harmed. The portion of the box with your address on it was somehow ripped off but my return address was still intact in the corner.

This is now the third time that I have had a package returned to me like this from WI.

What I'm going to do is courier ship these so I know exactly where they are and that the delivers' are reliable.

I'll try to get them out today.

Sheesh.
