TheForce Pillar of the Community United States 4870 Posts	Posted 04/27/2007 11:32 am I ordered the 2007 Charleton Guide to Canadian Coins on ebay on April 11th. Book was shipped April 13th via usps media mail. I e-mailed seller April 24th checking on this. Never received a response. Here it is April 27th. The item shipped from CT. Is it normal for such slow shipping from CT? I checked the track and confirm and it has said the same thing, not changing at all. I understand snail mail can take time but I won some coins that shipped from western Canada at the same time and those arrived last week. Report this Post to the Staff

TheForce Pillar of the Community United States 4870 Posts	Posted 04/27/2007 6:20 pm Should I just keep waiting or try and contact the seller again? It does bother me that I don't get a response. This seller has left positive feedback for me. Shipping was $5.00 and I know media mail for a single book doesn't cost that much. If I asked for first class, they may have asked for a higher fee when $5.00 is more than enough. I am kinda frustrated because I need this book before making anymore purchases of Canadian coins.

bobby131313 Forum Dad United States 24165 Posts	Posted 04/27/2007 6:37 pm I would try to contact the seller again. The limit for first class is 13 ounces ($3.27, not dirt cheap anyway) so it was probably too heavy. Next choice would have been Priority which could be as high as $8 and change depending on weight and zones. Media mail probably cost him around $3, maybe more depending on the weight of the book, plus there are no free boxes for MM, so $5 is not an outrageous price. I think Susan does actual postage plus $1 for our MM shipments. Shop CCF Members on eBay. Report this Post to the Staff
TheForce Pillar of the Community United States 4870 Posts	Posted 04/30/2007 11:00 am Still haven't got a response from the seller. If the book doesn't arrive today, I will e-mail the seller again. Report this Post to the Staff
TheForce Pillar of the Community United States 4870 Posts	Posted 04/30/2007 9:41 pm I didn't receive my package today so I just sent another e-mail. I'm not convinced I will get a response to this one since I didn't get a response on my e-mail I sent on April 24th. I told the seller I was losing my patience and suggested that the package could have been lost in the mail. I am not a happy camper. I am perplexed as to the type of feedback I leave this seller when the time comes. Would a neutral be appropriate? Report this Post to the Staff
