Reasons are liegitimate things that happen to stop us from doing something. "I didn't get your stuff shipped this week because there was a bad snow storm and I was shut up in the house." can be a reason.
"I didn't get the stuff shipped I have been not bothering to send for over a month becuase..." is the start of an excuse.
Once you have to use more than one reason for not doing what you should have, then you are just making excuses.
"I don't have the money to ship"
Really?
When you owe me a couple loose figures you can ship them in a bubble mailer for less than 3 bucks. So that excuse doesn't fly.
A family member died.
Okay, that can delay things for a week maybe. But a month? Bullspit!
"I've been busy."
Unless you have been in a foreign country for a month this one is garbage too. And even if you were actually "out of town" for a long time, it's still crap because if you knew you were going you should have let the other guy know about it so he would understand the delay.
All this stuff become double dogpoo when ya log into the tank every few days and ignore the gentle reminders from guys you owe stuff too.
