I'm just a newbie here, and I can certainly understand the forum not wanting folks to post bad air, but fair is fair, and from what I read, the man who was selling the saw seems to not be good for his word. I personally cannot think of any excuse valid enough to warrant a transaction to take 3 months to complete. I will give people the benefit of the doubt until proven otherwise to me, but I also am cautious and cynical, so I approach everything carefully. If there is a bad apple in the barrel, I for one would appreciate knowing about it so I may exercise additional caution. I certainly hope this matter gets resolved in a speedy manner.
Don't think I could have been that patient if this happened to me...We have all had many positive experiences on AS-Sorry this has happened to you wi50modifiedmark put it well
I kept quiet for a long time, hopeing that there was a mistake, but with the lack of the goods and the lack of response, lack of communication with pinesfarm, I feel that I've been took.
I hope the saw arrives in the mail, I will not appoligize to anyone though as I have not been out of line after 3 months. It's not like I got excited after things takeing an extra week, than another, and another, etc. I've been put off, kept in the dark or just plain outright screwed. We'll see but if and when it arrives, I'll be sure to post that it did.
I've had nothing but great luck on here, weather I needed a part, information or anything. I've gave away and paid shipping on a fair number of items to members who needed them more than I did. I'll keep ondoing things the same way also as I hope most of you do. have done or have intentions of.
He's on right now......

Well before the others come along chastising your for airing this in public, let me say that I for one are not against you airing it here since you did it in a fair fashion.
If what your saying is true then the no replys and this much time makes it hard for me to think of a excuse that would be valid.
I have had dealings with lots of folks here and all seem to have been straight up and good, but if there is a louse here, I for one would like to know who it is so I don't end up in the same boat with you.
I purchased a Stihl MS 650 from the member here, Pinesfarm back in January. He had it advertised here as siezed, needing work, etc. best offer. I wanted one for a project and sent him a PM, we talked on the phone and he had been offered $250, me to get it and get it shipped here we agreed on $300. I sent the postal money order on 1-12-10. He recieved it. We've exchanged a few PM's on the deal and he has promised me a tracking number when he ships it.
As of now, I've sent many PM's, over the last several weeks. I see he's been on the site but seldom bothers to reply to any of my pm's.
Now for those of you who feel that I am the bad guy or that I am picking on someone, I have a pile of PM's to foreward to those who wish to read them, the money order recipt, and you'll see I've been nothing but patient and nice about the deal, at first after some excuses on his part I was all for good honest mistakes. About a week agoe I sent a message stateing that I wanted my money back, or the saw and to be quick about it. Still no reply, no promise of shipping, no tracking number and no good excuese. I check his profile often to be certain that he has been online here, I'm pretty certain that he has seen the messages as I see he's online here about every day and sometimes more often.
I'm not picking on anyone, or trying to. I just want the money back or the saw. After about 3 months I feel that this is a reasonable request on my part.
At this point is it has not been shipped, never was, or he was out to take someone for some money, and that was me. So maybe this post will stirr things up a little, maybe someone who knows him can apply a little pressure, but most likely I'm out $300, maybe tomorrow the thing will arrive or at least he will ship it if he is going to bother but after a few months now I'm not holding my breath.
What you do not want to say is
"I am going to report you for mail fraud unless you..."
DO NOT SAY THAT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES!!!
What you do want to say is
". Perhaps it would be easiest for both of us if you were to send me the saw, or a cashier's check by next MM DD YY. If MM DD YY passes and this is not resolved I will exercise every legal means to collect that which I am legally entitled to.
Please be careful to govern yourself accordingly."
Although Thall is giving you good advice, I personally would never attend in person as it opens you up to trouble and accusations.
