    I ordered a USB to Serial converter to use to transfer files between my modern laptop and my Tandy 200 a week ago on eBay, and the seller hasn't shipped it yet. It was supposed to be delivered by April 4th, but it hasn't left the seller's warehouse yet. I can't cancel my order as the seller already printed the shipping label, and I don't want to return it because I'll have to pay a $3 return fee on a $5 item. I tried to contact the seller multiple times and got no replies. Just gave him some negative feedback.

      The thing is, I don't have any way to cancel the order.

      Also, I do have a null modem cable. I'm using(or at least planning to use) a db25 to db9 null modem cable, then would use a db9 to usb converter since my laptop doesn't have a serial port.

      That should work perfect.  Many don't realize they need a null cable or adapter.  As I'm typing this, my Model III is hooked to my desktop using the 25 pin ribbon cable, 25 to 9 adapter, null modem adapter and then the USB to serial.  It works flawless.  It also works perfect with my Atari 130XE SIO2PC adapter and APE software. No longer need to drag out the old PC with real RS232 ports.

      I try to do my research before doing stuff. Mostly back in the day when I wanted the Apple II Super Serial Card to use ADTpro(which I will be using the cables for in the future if I ever get a SSC) but anyways, that's only if the seller ever decides to ship the serial to usb adapter:)
