The item was bought and paid for April 8th the item has not arrived and it is scheduled to arrive Friday that is is 1 day shy of 3 weeks.. He did not ship priority and took a week and a half before he shipped it.. If he would have shipped priority I would have got it in time even if he took a week and a half to ship.

Doesn't matter at this point, and for what its worth the odds are even if he used parcel select he paid way more to ship it to you then you paid for shipping anyway, due to actual weight and distance. He could have requested more to cover shipping cost, or backed out of the sale due to shipping quote error and ate the negative feedback you'd have left him, but he didn't.
And it seems you knew he was a member here. After no contact within 24 hours you could have contacted him here as well to let him know you were under a deadline, then he could explain he would not be able to meet said dead line, and you could be refunded.
At this point this is your option, when it arrives you can choose to keep said item, mod and resell it on ebay, or return it to Bernie. Whatever feedback you choose to leave is up to you. Either way you are ignoring the fact that on anything you purchase, if you need it for a dead line you need to contact the seller prior to purchasing it to make sure they can deliver in your required time frame.
Most modders and computer system builders know this by heart, that it is a must to do this when they have a project dead line. Feigning ignorance to that fact alone is going to earn you a ignore and a spot on a black list from modders and sellers here on this forum.
And also, Bernie, please give me this guys ebay id, via here or pm, so I can add him to my black list. Thanks in advance (You are allowed to share his ebay id publicly on forums, it wont violate ebay seller policy, you just cant post his name and address).
