Y'know, it seems to me that people who are the recipients of others money or goods in sale/trade deals would know enough to keep the others informed. It's a bit of a pain to have sent out whatever in faith and then have to sit and wait for the recipient to get off of his/her duff and at least inform the sending party that they have whatever was sent and will be sending whatever out whenever, don'tcha think? Sometimes it's really not worth the frustration - the frustration and guessing is much more *expensive* than the cost of what you're dealing for, usually. Get a clue, people - be ethical and timely when doing deals over the net. (ambles down from soapbox, looks about sheepishly and hobbles off "...with wandering steps and slow...") jeff
