My house
Well, I bought some items on aquabid and sent off a money order via express mail on friday morning. I still have not recived a package back in the mail. I have tried to get in touch with this vendor via multiple emails but have received no word back. I am starting to get worried that this person might not send me anything regardless of all the positive feedback up on his page.

Should I be worried at this point?

How long does it usually take to get plants from aquabid sellers?

it could take a week for them toput the package in the mail. the money still couldnt have reached him, so he could be waiting on the money. wait 2 weeks then freak out.

Sent the money express and I checked the verification code online. It said that it was received at 12:37pm Saturday.

I understand that shipping takes time but without any attempt to contact me it makes me a bit on the uncomfortable side.
 
IF he uses USPS Priority mail and IF he shipped on Monday (earliest day he could ship if he only received the money order on Saturday afternoon) then you may get the package Friday at this time of the year.
Where is the seller based and where are you (I've bought and sold a lot of stuff on Ebay and Priority mail going right across the country would usually take 5 days)?
 
Wait, you sent off a money order like western union? He would not accept paypal? Most positive reviews aren't a reliable gauge of reliability on aquabid because there are a lot of fake ones where they get their friends to write them repeatedly. I hope this was not a scam, but you should consider that a real possibility
 
I'd be concerned, but I wouldn't give up hope till January. It seems like a lot of the folks on Aquabid have notes saying that they'll ship then. An email back would certainly be nice, do they have a phone#?
 
How much did you spend? I hope you get it sorted out.
 
I made the purchase using a money order by my own choice becuase i don't use anything that tracks my money. I know that probably sounds strange to most.

To answer the other question: i didn't spend much. To be honest the express envelope i used cost me more than what i sent.
