I will have to add to this:
http://blockchain.info/address/1CdESARQzo3q5s22f6icA8E6fZysEcEgX6Sent him 6.1 BTC on 12/30 for 2 antminers. No escrow done seeing as he had trust and feedback with the community.
His response on December 30, 2013, 08:52:05 PM (after payment):
Ok will have the tracking for you in a few hours
Money looks to have been moved out of that wallet about an hour afterwards.
No tracking info given, no package received, will give him the benefit of the doubt for a few more days seeing as his last online time was right around when that message was sent. (Plus it's the holidays.)
Not posting negative trust on his profile just yet, he may must be busy.
