Good Question..

and the answer is NEVER ... unless it become a trade dispute and the agreement is breached.

Protect yourself.. get full information about the person you are trading with , and call them to discuss the deal ..

make an agreement regarding payment and shipping date. and then confirm it by e-mail.

If you are comfortable at that point , send the money , and then shut the fuck up and wait .. If you don't have a tracking number 2 days after the agreed shipping date.

Send an e-mail requesting the tracking number . A day after that if nothing.. then Call and ask for the tracking number.
2 days after that , if nothing , send an e-mail requesting your money back as at that point the seller is in breach of your agreement.

If you do not immediately receive a tracking number indicating the item is shipped ( and check and make sure it's not a bogus # ) or a refund..

call the police as you have just been scammed

Once you have called the police , then post on here the issue with the seller .. stating that the police have been called , and leave negative feedback indicating that the seller breached your agreement and scammed you.

Doing anything else is akin to pissing into a headwind... you will get pissed on
