I tend to agree. it actually was a shipment of a couple items, but under 3lbs. I mean, he could charge $8 and have USPS deliver in a flat-rate box for half the time. I especially love how shipping goes up with price of purchase, as opposed to weight. Nice little gig he has for himself.
Looking over the Paypal receipt and the invoice he finally sent - order placed sunday AM (yeah, I know, a weekend), but UPS picked up on Tuesday. From then it took a full week to deliver.
Still, a confirmation of payment would be nice (aka, a "reciept"). And when I finally got the receipt after sending an email, "oops, sorry" would have been sufficient, rather than just a blank email with shipping info - no receipt with that either, interestingly.
