My impression is that there are extremely few cases of fraud here on Audiogon. At Ebay there are always all kinds of scams going but I've been using Audiogon for 3 years and have never heard of someone getting chested outright on any forum thread.
On one of my first transactions through Audiogon, I nearly panicked when I didn't receive a set of expensive speaker wires for 4 weeks! UPS said my tracking number was not valid. I thought maybe the seller had pulled a fast one on me but in fact, it turned out that UPS had completely misplaced my package in the wrong state and had somehow deleted or never entered my tracking number into their computer system.
Has it been two weeks since you sent the maney order, or two weeks since the seller shipped the unit? My advice is be patient for a little while longer.
