To me this is like selling items (I sell on amazon and eBay) if something is sold, they pretty much expect their product. He is a business who has taken in and probably sold our product, he has benefited. The markup is probably pretty nice, I know I'm taking 1/4 to 1/2 loss by sending items in. But it's a service he is marketing and being compinsated for. So yes I do expect to be paid. Do I pay my bills with it, no. Do I use the money to take family trips, buy my wife's birthday present, things of that nature, yes. What made me upset is to find out it wasn't public knowledge multiple people were not being paid. It was hidden. As a buyer being transparent is important. If your unable to pay for goods then I'm sorry but I'm not going to send my items in. If I go to the local scrap yard yes steel might drop a penny overnight, it sucks but I'm being paid market not what I hoped for. The thing is I'm being paid none the less. If you want to be a business you have to scale up proportionally, you have to cover your obligations. Your main concern should be taking care of the people (us) that SELL you the material for your business to succeed. I'm sorry for his misfortune yes, but I'm still expecting payment. This isn't a deal breaker with me using him as a buyer, but I won't send more items until he is in fact paying for said items.
