Well... my last email to him was a good 2 weeks ago and I told him (paraphrase): Look, obviously something is going on with you personally. You've always been a real ebay pro in the past. Just let me know what is going on with my auction and send it out when you can.
Anyhow after several emails..and maybe because I had yet to post negative feedback (simply forgot :-) ) He decided to make good on the deal. But yet still no email or note in box explaining why. I'm assuming he is playing catch-up and is firing out stuff to customers. I gotta tell ya guys..just like red said, he is very professional and easy to talk to usually..very strange.
