I agree, take his personal info out the thread! cause at this point it has no relevance to your claim.
how was a partial payment sent? how much was not sent?
anyhow, when I sell something I make it a point to remain in constant communication with the buyer, because I have purchased items before (after days of good communication) then as soon as the payment was sent, seller stopped communicating as well, just nerve wrecking, so as far as taking a few days to respond, i can understand ones frustration with that. If I pay for something, I do expect the seller to ship it as fast as possible, or at least tell me when it will ship... anyone i have sold anything to online, can confirm this, I always ship fast! thats the worst feeling in the world (with bad communication). as soon as he sent payment did you inform him that it wasnt the full amount? cause if you are talking about paypal fees and such, some people dont understand how that works
as far paypal, did you ship the items? cause if you provide the tracking numbers, then you should be fine... youve been having some bad luck selling stuff lately?
not that Im taking sides, I just want to understand. i dont understand how you were scammed???
I'm buying a cam from a guy out in BC and he works in mine out of town so there almost no way to get in touch with him...he's got my money and with luck he'll have it sent out tomorrow. I'm not losing any sleep over it and I knew his schedule before I sent the money. I don't deal with paypal either and I never send more than my mind can afford to lose...and I have not had any problems

is this the thread in question... because your first post would scare me, although you do have some clean parts... some people buy things and do expect for the item to be shipped in a reasonable amount of time... to me a week or longer is not reasonable, but sometimes may be necessary (depending on the circumstances)...
just my opinion... it seems as though you are saying you only ship on Saturdays, then you say if you cant, you will ship the following Sat or if not, at your earliest convenience... i know you may have posted that out of frustration, but i think people just want to be given a specific date as to when you can ship an item...

Screenshots is your friend that way people can't manipulate anything as far as communication on transactions is concerned. I keep screenshots of ALL my transactions from people I buy from on this site and other sites that way I know what I have is concrete.
this is not the first time 88hurstolds has cried "scam"
business is business, you have rude people, stupid people, slow people, etc...
internet attacks are not constructive. Yes, it's important to inform others if "scams" are happening, but you could have handled it with more tact.
I'm not saying Sh1ft is in the right, but I'm not saying he's in the wrong either. Doesn't justify advertising his information
I'm saying it's a 2way street...
pretty soon, crying "scam" every time a deal doesn't go your way, is just gonna get old.

If only partial payment was sent find the reason, if he doesnt wanna send the rest send his monies back, dont ship the part, relist it and move on

Well its nice for all of you to chime in on something not having all the facts or even getting the ones presented straight either.
It was 24 hours and not 3 days if you read the initial post that I didn't reply because I was busy with life.
Get your facts straight before throwing in your 2 cents people.
I consider it a scam the moment my PayPal account goes negative, weather it gets resolved later on or not a potential scam is still a scam to me and if I can catch it before stuff leaves my hands then good. The fact that I have to deal with the situation in the first place is a scam to me...
I've sold to over 40 people this year alone and not one of them was rude or even asked where their stuff was like I was ripping them off, I usually run into one or two a year like this and feel that others should know who they are.
I was nice about it to him and didn't care about the short payment until he felt the need to pull some big head frat boy attitude on me and be disrespectful towards me, call me names and tell me how to run my life.
And now Im the bad guy??? WTF
And I could give two sh*ts if no one wants to buy from me because they don't want to wait patiently, saves me the bullshit and your probably just like this guy.
The parts sell themselves, I don't do this for a living and like to help others out but when crap like this happens it starts to ruien it for not just me but others as well.
