[quote name='thebeat' post='464993' date='Apr 17 2009, 01:38 PM']Bought a Sandberg Basic 4 using buy it now and Paypal on the 7th of this month from a seller on Ebay going by the username of chylamariusz88 and have yet to receive any response to my messages... or the bass. Now i realise that the seller may have gone on holiday or be ill but i'm really beginning to get f***ed off by his lack of response. If he has gone on holiday, which i hope he's bloody enjoying if he has, he might have stated as such in his ad...of course it may be that he's ripped me off or had his account hijacked in which case i can only wait on Paypal giving me refund...i've opened a dispute but have yet to escalate. Has anyone else had to wait this long for a reply from a seller? Or am i up sh*t creek without a bass?

I once had a 4 week wait from a guy I bought some gear from in France. I did the same as you and raised a dispute with PayPal but it turned out OK. Some people on EBay, I have found, just take their time and are not concerned with the other party involved with the transaction. Generally I have had good experiences on EBay, but getting a little bored with it now. I am sure you will be fine and obviously paying by PayPal will protect you no end. It is just a pain for you though. Good luck.
