I was following up on about 6 auctions I'd won a couple of weeks ago. Nothing big, $15-$30 items. I sent the sellers an email asking for a status. All responded and 5 of them said they had a death in the family and would ship soon. I'm patient and sure things happen and come up sometimes but this seems a bit strange. Does anyone else hear this a lot?

Death in the family....yes, I have heard that on more than one occasion.
I also get the "my computer was broken and am just back up running now" pretty frequently. But ironically, most of the sellers seem to have no trouble listing new items for sale while they ignore me for a few weeks.
I set my standards pretty low so as long as I receive the item in a reasonable period of time and the item was received undamaged, I don't complain.
