Havent received an item I ordered from a ASC member, in 3 weeks, CP error or I did I get scammed?

[Gunny_McSmith]

Hi,

I never thought I would have to do this, but here it is :
So, 3 weeks ago, I ordered a Pantac Larue replica case for my gbbr from a guy on ASC called Inops, real name is Thomas Szuba, and he's the admin of a Paintball team called "Inops Suspicio".

Transaction went smoothly, we agreed on shipping price, and all, then I EMT'ed him, he accepted the EMT and promised to ship the Item the next day during a break at his work.

here are the PMs we exchanged:

Let me know if that works for you or not?

What type of payment works for you? I would prefer EMT if possible.

If I receive payment tonight, I will ship the case out tomorrow during my lunch break.


On a side note, any chance you are related to a Mike Nguyen in Toronto?

Thanks,

Thanks again!

Paul

PS: Could I have a tracking number once it will be shipped?

I know how nerve wrecking it can be sometimes not knowing where your package is lol

Thanks again man

Paul

2 Days later, september 23rd, still no tracking number, so I sent him a PM just to remind him....

He replies only 5 days later, the 28th.... saying this :

------------------------------------------------------

After that, I’ve never heard back from him......

It’s been 4 weeks now, and still no packages, and it’s only coming from the Toronto area, and I live 500km away, in Ottawa....

Meanwhile I’ve had packages come from Los Angeles, and from Hongkong....

What should/can I do now?

Thanks for helping

Could any Admin move this to the appropriate section please?

Thanks

Update... :

It's been 4 weeks now, still no package, and I'm seriously starting to think that THOMAS SZUBA (aka Inops) never even shipped it.....

Should I publish his email on here so that someone else can try to contact him? (just in case he tries to ignore my PMs?

[Gunny_McSmith]

Update....

aHA! I knew he was a great man! Turns out it was a Canada Post error, iten has been sitting in the post office for a month now....

It will be here tomorrow
