I got in touch with him thanks to you guys! It seems he's been really busy with work lately, if you notice the last ebay transaction is the same date he stopped coming here, so I guess he's really not been on the internets much. Anyway, I caught him at work, so he said he will check into things when he gets home from his job tonight at about 4AM BST and for me to call him back, he gave me a home number to reach him on so hopefully things will be on track from now on. He says the item should have gone out like he said via courier, the way he said it made me think perhaps another person in his household was responsible for passing it to the courier since he is a night shift worker. Anyway, he said he has a tracking number and that he will give it to me when I call him tonight. I'm happy that things seem to be on track now and it's all thanks to you Merlin and whoever else was responsible for finding him! **big hugs** TO everyone else, thanks for all your support! You guys have been amazing. You have cemented my faith in this community!!
