Angry Bad guy: gotrx8

I purchased that triangular plastic cover that goes over the seatbelt bolt.

I paid on June 3rd.
June 11th he tells me the part has been shipped.I know that USPS can sometimes take 2-3 weeks to make it to Canada, so I waited.
On July 7th,I emailed him asking for a tracking number,he replied the same day saying that he would look into his files.He never replied.
On August 1st, I sent another email requesting a tracking number.He then replied that he needed my name and address to track down the package in his files.I provided him the info, he once again never got back to me.
September 11th, I emailed him again and he said that he would ship me another one.Being a nice guy I offered to pay for the shipping costs once I received the item (I did not want to get ripped off again)
September 12th, he tells me that he'll ship it out the next day.
September 23rd, I ask if he shipped it.
September 24th, he replies that he did.
September 30th, I ask for the tracking number to see where it was at. No reply.
October 20th, I ask for the tracking number again. Still no reply.

Hard to believe that 2 packages with tracking got lost. Feels more like they were never sent.

What bothers me right now is not the amount, but the fact that he got back to me as if nothing had happened and the fact that he might scam others for far bigger amounts since he's parting a whole car.

wow, that's pretty lame. Fortunately it wasn't an expensive item but it always sucks to have something like this happen.
how did you pay?
Think it's time to file a claim.

Definitely weak sauce. He felt that 10$ was an amount worthy of destroying an already tarnished reputation.
