"Bglad" responded to a WTB ad I had posted for a small case LSD unit. He was forthcoming with the details/pictures of the differential, and honest about it's condition. Unfortunately, for various reasons (scheduling, sickness, etc), the differential was never shipped. He offered a refund after ~23 days, or said he would send it the next day. I opted for him to still ship the unit, but 3 days later, it was still not ready to be sent. Bglad refunded the purchase, which took another 5 days to clear.
I do believe the transaction was just handled poorly, and not malicious intent. He never failed to respond to my messages, and didn't seem to make absurd excuses. That said, I gave up a month of time for a differential that never arrived, and "loaned" a couple hundred dollars out for that duration. I'm not angry, and ultimately I only lost time in the process, but thought I should mention it, just in case it became a trend. Hopefully, it was just an isolated case of poor timing.
