hello ladies and gentlemen, i have a question to put forth to all of you. about 2 weeks ago i sent $15 u.s (i am in canada) to gil for some cd's he had advertised here. (as an aside, i sent some money to another person on the same day, it was received in less than a week) i e-mailed him yesterday asking if he had received my money and i got a 'it's been lost in the mail' reply. he went on to say that he has horrid luck with the USPS and that he constantly loses stuff at the hands of the USPS. i called the USPS and posed this scenario to them. the man i spoke to laughed out loud and said that on occaision the USPS loses mail but never to the same address multiple times inside of a month. my question to all of you is this: in your dealings with the USPS and/or gil gershmann, is it likely that my letter (and money) has been lost in the mail or am i being taken for a ride? judging from what i have read here in the past i have my own ideas but i thought i'd like to get some input from people who know what's up. i sent cash because in my 4+ years of dealing on the net i haven't been burned. i guess there is a first time for everything but i'd like to get the opinions of the people who really know. all of you. my apologies to those of you who either aren't in the u.s. or could care less about my problem. sorry for the use of bandwidth. replies via e-mail please. later, peace, love and ambience. d... d@techno.ca orbital@clo.com http://www.clo.com/~orbital
