I don't buy a lot of stuff off Ebay, maybe once a month, if that. Bought an item two weeks ago and it still hasn't arrived. I've sent a couple of emails to the seller but no reply and this guy is a power seller too. He says in the listing that delivery will take a couple of days. It only cost £3 but that's not the point and this is not the first time it's happened to me when buying on Ebay.

If I don't get a response by tomorrow, I think I'll leave some negative feedback. Really annoying when this happens! :cwm23:

Don't worry.... If you paid by PayPal you're covered. Give him a chance... maybe he's had some problems & can't answer you. I sell on ebay too, & sometimes it really isn't possible to get everyone's orders out as fast as expected. PayPal cover you for 45 days. If you paid by credit card you've got 4 months (by my banks rules). You won't lose!
Good luck!

It's possible he may have problems. I suppose it won't hurt if I wait a bit longer.

I got ripped off for £300 a few years ago, I was new there then and was daft enough to pay by Western Union:crazy:

I learnt from that and only pay through paypal now:xxgrinning--00xx3:

I've ordered and sold 100's of stuff, so know what it's like from both sides. Ebay resolve problems quickly now, and you're covered by Paypal.

I've had items from HK/China quicker than I've had from the UK, and Royal Mail do mess up a lot more than people think. I received a pen after 6 weeks!!!! And yet got a package from HK 3 days after ordering :Erm:

One week this year I ordered 3 things from seperate sellers and they all went missing :doh .... strange it happened to be the week my usual postman was on holiday and the replacement was a young lad!

If you take your dispute to Ebay, they deal with most of them in Makati, my Elaine worked at their call/chat centre for 3 years. Good luck anyway:xxgrinning--00xx3:
