I'm in for about $18 on the shipping so it isn't that big a deal.

Done it plenty of times. First time burned. It's a forum similar to this one and the material was basically scrap metal.

btw, if it was anything worth real value I would have waited for payment.
So you lost $18 and what you have called scrap metal, and you want to harass a guy for that?
Well if you want to waste the effort, here's what I'd do:
Contact the guy to see if he actually ever sent the payment; things do get lost in the mail/errors can be made when e paying. Give him the opportunity to make it right. If not, then make sure you post something on the forum advising all that this guy will not/has not paid. I don't think the ramifications of sending a bag of poo or e-harassing someone is worth $18. But that's just me.
ETA This is similar to CADnumbersX bitching about amazon on a bad purchase he made, for $9.

I have bought stuff from here, all went well.
always face to face transactions though.
Smallest was a lawnmower, largest was a car.
I have sold tickets on TE as well.

It is not $18. $18 is his cost. The value is $100. Which is why the guy did not pay. If you steal from a high end store, they go with the value of the good not what it cost them to buy it.

Damn, I didn't know it sounded that bad. Now I feel like a bitch and I was just trying to have fun.
