To be crystal clear if any of the last few comments were in reference to my comments:  the stated delivery time was 4 to 13 days via usps.  Its PA to NC.  the dude shipped on Day 11.  Am I going to ---smurfette--- if the board arrives as advertised but a few days late?  No.  Is he an ---uvula--- who should ship more timely?  Yes.

I'm not a complainer.  I'm more peeved about large retailers like marco slipping on their shipping turnaround. I give them some benefit of the doubt because I know it's pinball show season and I'm sure they're busy travelling.   I'm spoiled by industry pro's like McMaster, Mouser and digikey and ultimarc.  If I order from divemaster I know it will take up to a week to ship, no big deal, He's low overhead.  but If I'm paying for big overhead, I like to get big overhead style service.

I think Ebay is making far more money from the oodles of folks who are full-timing it. And whenever rules change, let alone get [more] complicated, it's because the institution is ensuring they will make [more] money.

I buy a fair amount of things online, more than half of it Ebay. Occasionally, I take a chance on a seller who's less than 99 percent. Once or twice in several years have I needed to file a complaint. Most of the time I get prompt, regular correspondence from sellers.

I won't for the life of me sell anything on there anymore.
