Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

It did not sit for hours. How would the seller even know that? He also tried to blame me for killing it as I was gently flipping it around in a video to show it was dead.

I think you should initiate a BOI thread, with names and evidence. His point of view of the issue is different than yours.

I don't believe I have any solid proof to argue against him at this point, and I don't really want to waste anymore time over shipping charges. Unfortunately, there was a 2 hr delay from the time I sent him the video and the package being delivered which is why he is probably saying it sat out for hours. I had to wait for my wife to bring it from our house to my facility which is why there was a delay in me contacting him. She was home to receive it though. I didn't take the video until 11:52am according to the time stamp, and it was delivered around 9:40.

That’s a tough call. I probably would have rolled the dice and stood by the guarantee. Next day delivery is usually reliable enough that I won’t think twice about it. But i’ve gotten burned before on similar situations. Best you can do is mark the package with enough “live product” stickers that the carrier gets the idea that this package should not be stored in excessively cold or hot areas.

I believe it is a better than even chance that this is just a spammer trying to establish a toehold before launching the spam attack. It is pretty common for them to post in really old threads. I guess perhaps they believe such threads are not being monitored and they can skate in under the radar.
IP address points to Canada from a hosting company I have seen LOTS of spammers use.
Sometimes I give them the benefit of the doubt. Sometimes I don't.

Yep it was a spambot that just grabs content from other users and reposts it. Have seen similar activity on other forums.

That is not what I was saying Scott. My point about not having time was it was not worth my time to argue over $50 or whatever shipping was at the time.
So I didn't want to get involved in a long thread about this. I simply wanted opinions. This was probably 4 years ago and at this point I couldn't even tell you who the seller was.
