    Of course the seller actually 'exists' 

     

    But it doesn't mean it isn't a scammer seller

     

    You as the buyer have the power to open and follow through with an item not received dispute to get your money back

     

    Especially if it is from one of the seller who have garbage feedback

    I don't know if the seller is a scammer or if it is a hijacked account.

    But regardless of the seller's record, if you don't receive your item by the expected delivery date range, immediately open an ebay claim, as casey outlined.

     

    Don't hesitate, don't bother contacting the seller again & if by chance they do contact you after a claim is opened, just continue with the claim, no matter what they say.

    A seller who fails to respond to any messages and doesn't post off your item in 10 days is doing a bad job, whether they are a scammer or not.

    You have 30 days after the last estimated delivery date to open an 'item not received' claim through eBay's Money Back Guarantee

     

    https://www.ebay.com.au/help/policies/ebay-money-back-guarantee-policy/ebay-money-back-guarantee-policy?id=4210

     

    What is the item number  ? - Don't give the seller's name
