Potential here. We'll see how it shakes out. Wondering how long I should give him to respond or start the dispute process. I had an issue with PayPal that took me several days to sort out before I could make payment. He PM'd me every single day to ask status of payment. Then after I made payment, I had to bug him for confirmation and shipment info. He confirmed receipt and said would send tracking info later in the day - that was Tuesday (17th) and it's been radio silence since.

Ecutek Cable with Dongle

UPDATE: received PM from the seller on 1/24 with tracking info. Package is coming from APO in Germany and is still in transit (since 1/19). Looks like an auto email with shipping confirmation from PayPal went missing.

UPDATE: received package yesterday. USPS didn't bother to update any of the tracking info until after I already had the package in hand. Once the tracking info updated several hours later, it says the package took less than 12 hours from being dropped off at the carrier in Germany to arrive at and depart from a transfer facility in Chicago. Then it it took 10 days to get to Austin
