My experience wasn't as good. I paid him literally within two minutes of getting his PayPal address, and after a week went by with no response I asked for tracking information.
After awhile, I got a song and dance about how he'd been "super busy" and thought he'd shipped it. He promised to ship it "first thing next morning." Well, another 5 days went by before the package hit the mail system.
I'm more than willing to be patient if someone is honest with me, but don't tell me you're going to ship the next day (after a week had gone by already) and then blow me off another 5 days!
