And Rhoni's a lovely lady, who I'm sure wouldn't have posted this without concern and good reason.

6 weeks is a bit much without any communication, unless she's been ill (I'd still have gotten somebody to send an email for me).

Hope all is well.

some people have lives above and beyond internet forums and deem some things more important. I know some find this hard to comprehend. My comment wasnt aimed at the op, she was just after someone who can get in touch with han for her, my comment was aimed at the other lad who came out with the forum buzz word 'scammer'

Same here... I contacted Han but didn't post as it wasn't my business until 'scammer' started getting thrown around.... Han has said she will deal with it, the first thing she did was tell me it was her fault... she's not the sort of person to hide behind excuses!!

I have no problem with the original poster, she posted asking for someone to contact Han - I did that!

I'm not saying 6 weeks is acceptable, just that Han has her reasons and will sort it with the OP without people saying she's a scammer!

This is what makes me sick about this site. Someone can take 6 weeks to be bothered to post an item, Buyer has to to log in and ask someone to contact the seller which has and now they'll 'sort it out.'
Regardless of how lovely the seller is perhaps they should have 'sorted it out' as soon as they had the buyers cash..

He did only say that it could have been a scam. I dont think there was any harm meant. I hope the seller is ok and it is good to know these things can be easily resolved with the help of other members.

While I understand what you're saying, and the word 'scammer' always seems to cause trouble- the start of that post is ridiculous. I have more important things in life than the web and forums myself, that's not what was being questioned.

While there may be things 'more important' than internet forums, I don't think thats what people are saying IS important, more the fact that a seller has not contacted a buyer for a long time - I would say that's pretty important. I think you'd be pretty upset/angered if someone did it to you?

If the seller has held their hands up then fair enough, but whether forums are important or not doesn't matter- to me PEOPLE are, and that's the issue at hand.

yeh that first part does sound hipocritical because obviously the person was on here in first place to sell the item and took the persons money but then it takes them a further 6 weeks to sort something out. i think i would be a little more than annoyed if i was in same boots as OP.

I think that people have no need to comment if it doesnt concern them.

Its getting sorted out now hopefully so why doesnt everyone just butt out of it?
