I'd like to mention that it appears he is a very active DX contester and with Field Day this past weekend, he (like me) might have been VERY busy last week preparing... just a thought.

Lets see if it does not show up in a couple of days. East coast to the west coast 7 days would not be all that long if it was sent Via post office. If he sent it UPS or FedX ground then 4-5 day's would be normal and that is counting working days. So i'll bet you have in the next couple of day's.......

I sent Jay a paypal for $200 for an FT-7800 almost a month ago. I finally heard from him on 8th August saying that he was out of town and would ship straight away, fair enough.
Over a week later numerous emails for an update and nothing heard.
Finally disputed this with Paypal, was told that the radio was damaged during packing and that a refund would be forthcoming.
Again numerous emails to ascertain when and how this would be made, nothing.
Finally decided to escalate this to paypal for them to decide. I am also considering filing a fraud complaint with the local PD.
If any one knows Jay, please get him to contact me about this I want to resolve this as soon as possible.

I have a refund pending. So I am Happy, thank you Jay.
No Harm No foul.
This could have been avoided with better communication.
