Contacted this seller through craigslist and made an attractive offer on this mandolin,which was accepted-I'm in Va,seller is in CT...Emailed back and forth about secure packing,shipping rates,etc. and overnighted a USPS money order to him..All seemed up and up-emails answered promptly..Promised to ship same day as funds were received..2nd day after payment,got email stating he never got MO..I went to the PO and got a photocopy of the acceptance signature and confronted him with this..Story changed,he got it and all is well,shipping that day..Inquired on 3rd day email I hadn't received tracking info and answer back was car accident,sob story,bad day/week, etc, promised to ship next day...Now no response at all..Been through the proper postal channels,money order inquiry and so forth and have been to see local law enforcement to see what if anything can be done as well as filed a complaint with the US postal inspectors office..Anyone else had this problem and if so was there any resolution? I'm sick to think I flushed nearly 6 bills down the drain and have no recourse..I'm about mad enough to ride to CT and do a face to face..Here is the listing so no one else gets duped..
