In mid-June, I responded to a post by one Jeffrey Eustis, of Conway, AR,
regarding some laserdiscs he had for sale. We made a deal and I sent the
$75 we agreed upon, which was deposited on July 12. I was told that the
discs were shipping, but they have not arrived yet.
I've e-mailed several times to at least find out how they were shipped,
but so far I've not received any responses since July 12.
From what I've researched, it seems from past listings that this Eustis
was a stand-up guy... is there anyone in this forum who has dealt with
him before?
