At the beginning of August I sold some furniture to a very sweet lady on a FB Exchange. She asked if I was willing to hold it until her husband came home from being deployed at the end of August. I was fine with that. End of August came and went without hearing from her. I figured they were probably busy with their family and would give it a few days. I know she was eager to get the stuff.
So about a week or so ago I messaged her. After not hearing from her I both called her and texted. No answer. I've posted on the exchange (only giving where she is from and a first name). No one so far knows her.
We are moving from the area in about a month. I'm concerned that something's happened to her or a family member and feel terrible that she doesn't have the things she paid for. I know there's not a whole lot I can do but thought I'd check here to see if there's something I haven't thought of.
EDITED: Timing is everything!!! She just contacted me. Had been out of the country!

Maybe contact admin of the FB Exchange and see if they can help?

I don't think it would help to contact the base unless you are in a small area. They won't give out info and I can't think of who would know everyone on base.
Really, I'd give her to the end of the week to respond. And message her saying that and that you are moving. After that, list the furniture again. If she ever contacts you, you can refund her the money. You'd be within your right to keep the money, but I'd never feel right about doing that.

Yes, I certainly don't want to collect twice on the furniture! I'll try sending her another message about having to relist it. Good idea
We are in a large area so I don't think contacting the base would do any good.
I will contact the admin of the FB group. Thanks!
Anyone else?

Have you googled her or looked for her on facebook?

I have both googled her and looked at her FB but there's been no activity since last year and those were just pics. No friends listed. Thanks.
