    So what's the proper amount of time and/or process for a missing trader?

    The box I shipped landed on Tuesday (5/13), and I haven't heard from them since last Wednesday (5/7) and that was when they gave me their address. I gave them the tracking number on Thursday (5/15) and it seems that they haven't been back on the forums since Friday (5/16)

    His last message did say "sorry for the delay man, been having some major issues at work." So I gave him some time, but now that he already received the package I sent him and he hasn't responded, I'm starting to get worried.

    What's the proper etiquette on moving forward with this? I've sent him 4 separate PM's after his last communication.

    seriously though - assuming you actually meant you provided tracking last Thursday (5/8) and he was last in the forums Friday (5/9) - yeah, give the guy a call and a chance to explain himself, hope you get everything figure out - good luck!

    Sorry, I forgot how to use a calendar. :wink: I gave tracking on 5/8 and last login was 5/9

    I guess I'll give him a call and see what happens. Thanks for the advice. I'll keep you guys updated.
