Default eBay Issue!!! Need Help!!!

Hey guys,

Anyone in here ever buy stuff on eBay and the seller doesn't deliver the item to you? I bought the lip spoiler on eBay from an individual seller...and his feedback is 100% out of 42....i got it for a really good deal!!!...anywayzzz i paid for the item 4/22....email the guy since...still no response....i don't know what's going on. What should I do? Should I report it to eBay? or PayPal? I know there is a protection thing with PapPay if you paid the item through them which I did. Any advice? thanks guys

It's been 5 days, sometimes shipping can take a while depending on what courier he used.

I'd wait till the end of this week before I take action through ebay or paypal but find out if there is a deadline or something that you can complain to ebay/paypal and get reimbursed

Definitely be a little more patient. Ya, it sucks when a seller isn't very good at communicating, but given the weekend, he may just be moving a little slow.

A lot of seller's don't really respond to emails once the item is sold. Sucks, but its how some of them do business. x2 on waiting a bit longer. 5 days really isn't that long...

wait longer, assuming they don't ship weekends, you only waited 3 days, you are over reacting too quickly... is this your first purchase on ebay?

where is it shipping from?

Gotta factor in a lot of things, but that doesnt make up for the emails..

Best of Luck to you..I doubt a seller like that would screw u over..I love the ones that try to get you to send a money order to an offshore account...

If you ever see those, pm me the link and i will take care of them for you!!

just don't wait too long... i've had my buddy buy a record from egay and paid for it. He waited 2 weeks for the record and it never came. He then file his claim and won the dispute but the response was You have won your dispute but there is no funds left to be returned to you.

if the seller has money in his paypal account they can easily deduct that, if not, good luck!!

I'm not worry about when I will get the spoiler....i'm just worried about him not responding to me after i purchased the item and disappear all of a sudden.

I guess I have to wait until the end of the week to take any further action.

Thanks alot for the guys above.
