you need to name and shame...others may have had the same problem with them, may know them personally to give them a nudge to hurry up.

maybe the person has had an accident - and a friend on here knows so could tell you.
blah blah blah.

As said, people need to know who it is..so that they may be able to help you.
otherwise this is a pointless thread.

You put the money in his bank? Seriously? Surely your only route now would be police, as you have no protection what so ever... Threaten him with police action IMO.

If you don't receive any contact what so ever off him, then I'd just message him saying he's got a few days to contact you and you will get the police involved after a set date. If he's online and not responding, it doesn't look good.

Hang on, doesn't look like you've waited very long, you only asked him how the packaging was going yesterday!
