He "claims" we had no UPS agreement and that he got the "ground" quote from the US Post office at 7:30pm? To my knowledge Fedex and UPS are the only ones to offer "ground" service. The very word "ground" implies UPS or Fedex and he goes on to say in our dialogue that he normally uses FEDEX. To furthur this arguement his quote was for $31 shipping which I paid $16 of and his actual charges as he states was almost $40. This conflicting data leads me to believe he used a different shipper.
John, my statement about 10's of thousands of dollars spent here was neither pious or condescending. In fact it is closer to $100k when added up but was said so you would know in all the years I've done business here I have NEVER had an issue, both as buyer and/or seller, UNTIL NOW!
You need to admit you made a BIG mistake irresponsibly shipping that part and refund my money, period. IMO, insuring SOLD parts for the amount of the sale is common practice and should not have to be requested.
IF I take you to court I assure you it will cost you 10 times what you owe me. I will spend thousands to collect that money because you have pissed me off and now it is about principle.
Don't say I have not given you ample time either, my letter to you gave you 10 days and you still have not paid.

Wayne, I have no problem with bringing slander charges against you, along with a counter suit . I mailed YOUR property to YOU at YOUR risk not mine. Your original letter that came with your check had only a mailing address and no request for tracking or insurance. I have proof and witnesses, and now that it has gone this far, by you calling me a theif it will cost you a court filing fee to get anything else from me. I now think that you did get the parts and have come up with some sort of way to get me to to send your money so you come out with the converter at no cost to you. I think you got the parts and saw no tracking # and are now scamming me. The only thing I can say is that you have already agreed that there was no special shipping instructions because neither one of us had EVER had problems with shipments before. You ASKED about tracking way after it was shipped. You didnt ask WHAT the # was like if you were expecting me to have them, you asked me if I had one. YOU KNOW THERE WASNT ANY AGREEMENTS WITH ANY CARRIERS much less any insurance or tracking # agreements. You arent even sure what splines it was made for until after I got the check. So that being said I will not pay unless the post office refunds the amount I put on the domestic claims investigation form. You can get in touch with your local post master and ask them. They will find out the truth. They have seen all my proof and told me that 99% of the time the package was delivered to the destination and stolen from there, that is if you aren't a scam artist. It was very heavy, big, and red, and said HUGHES across it. It was sent in the origanal box that it came from Hughes. YOUR ISSUE IS WITH THE FEDS. NOT ME......FYI additional services purchased from any carrier doesn't mean that your mail is 100% guaranteed against incidents. I did send your converter, I did not intend for it to get lost, therefore you calling me a ripoff artist on the ad you posted is slander and if you take me to court, you can bet I will countersue for damages for that! any

If you read the email you can see that Wayne asked me about tracking #'s after package was already sent.
I have proof that I sent the package.....he claims he never received it - but how do I know Wayne King isn't ripping me off??....he says he bought/sold on the internet 10's of 1000's of dollars worth, I'm just trying to get rid of a few used parts - cheap!
I have filed a complaint with the post office, which I have proof of as well..and if the post office can verify it was never delivered to Wayne King or the address it was shipped to and they refund the money. I will forward it to Wayne King.

Ok, I see the proof that he paid for it to be mailed. But there is no proof that it was delivered. Delivery confirmation or insurance is the only was to prove it through the USPS. If you sell something through feebay, you have to have proof that it was recieved or you are still responsible. Seller responsiblity is looked at the same on pretty much every transaction everywhere else that I have seen. I sold a part earlier this year and just happened to insure it as the local postmaster boxed it for me and I wasn't sure of the packaging job. 90 days later, it still hasn't been located. The insurance paid me the money to refund the buyer, I'm still out my money and my part. As the seller, I feel that's not really fair same as the seller here, and I got the insurance. If you sell it and the buyer doesn't want insurance, spend the 90 cents and get the delivery confirmation. That way you can be sure if it is recieved or not. The delivery confirmation cannot be used as a tracking number, it's only scanned when it's delivered. But it can tell you whether or not it's been recieved. I'm not taking sides in this, looks like both parties are coming out ont he losing end. Hope it can be resolved guys...
