sold an item. buyer in Canada opted for the cheapest shipping to save $6.00. (note to myself - only quote Airmail prices from now on...)
so the buyer "thought" he was getting 4-6 days shipment but in reality was 4-6 WEEKS and he's been emailing me every few days saying "where is my package"?
I finally turned on my return receipt requested to see if he was even reading my email and I happened to see this one today after he read the email....

fortunately he left me positive feedback when he paid for the item.
bless his heart...........
(mumbling "cheapskate" under my breath)
honest - I heard it when I was preparing the package for shipment - that small voice that said to spring for the extra $6.00 and ship it airmail. But I figured....no, he didn't pay for airmail.
I learned MY lesson a long time ago when I didn't fork over the $1.30 for insurance and the seller said "oh well......."

4 to 6 weeks can also be a joke. I have had international package take up to 8 or 9 weeks. I would start telling him that right now if I were you.
The one good thing about surface is it takes too long to get there so they can't do a paypal charge back against you.
