NEVER order anything from someone who lives in Guam and sends the item Parcel Post. He's had my money 3 weeks for a beach scoop I purchased immediately with Paypal and I may have to wait up till 3 weeks more until it finally gets here! Summer will be over by the time I get it! Live and learn....never again! Consider yourself warned. HH George Fatizzi
 
Your right takes a long time for things outside the US to get shipped here and alot of overseas places shipping is sky high . Last year I traded some extra items I had for a detector and send my items to a address that was in Miami Florida turned out the Florida address was just a mail forwarding address . The items he sent me were mailed out right away but were coming from Costa Rica which I didn't know before I made the deal so took a long time for both trades to get to there destination It cost him a lot more than me as I only had to pay shipping to Florida and he had to pay the shipping from florida to Costa Rica and also shipping for the items from him to me which was about 50 bucks one way .But it took a long time to complete the deal which I would not have done had I known ahead of time so make sure you know where your items are going and coming from before agreeing to a deal . My friend in Costa Rica wanted to buy something from me later and I told him I didn't want to do anymore out of US deals even though all the risk was on him and I think it made him mad but it just wasn't worth the long time it takes to do the deal when I could do it closer to me at a shorter time with less risk . I hated it made him mad but I wasn't limited on the deals and length of transactions available to me as he was. Hang in there it will work out in 2 or 3 weeks but takes a while .

Hopefully you at least get it, would be much worse if you were scammed completely. Good luck!
