I don't know this "Jon" person. I do, however, do a fair amount of 
trading/selling over the internet, although I've not done any of this 
with ten-tec list members. I just like to read about Ten-Tec stuff, 
specifically when someone says something nice about the Corsair II (my 
rig! ;-) ).

I do know that it's -common- practice that if someone pays you with 
a personal check, then they should expect to wait 4-6 weeks for 
delivery. I usually ship on receipt of the check, which is considerably 
faster than what is common, accepted business practice. A money order 
should ship the same day (or within a week) because theoretically, 
that's the same as cash.

My suggestion, David, is that since you claim it's been only three
weeks, 
and you paid with a personal check, just sit back, grab a cold drink,
and 
enjoy the summer for a couple more weeks before getting too bent out of 
shape. If after three more weeks you still don't have your stuff- then 
contact the police dept. in Jon's area, and your local post office, and 
file mail fraud charges, because that's what it is.

Good luck! 73, -Web in Myrtle Beach, SC
