Beware of

I bought 2 DVDs from this seller on the same day recently. Both DVDs were posted to me the next day (according to the seller's notifications). One DVD arrived quite promptly. I never received the 2-nd one. My e-mails to the seller did not get any response. This was my first bad experience on eBay.

you cannot bad mouth sellers on the forums you will get in trouble yourself doing that.

If you paid by paypal open a item not received dispute.

You only bought them on the 27th January...you have plenty of time to open a paypal dispute for Item Not Received.

Why did you leave feedback before exploring every avenue to get your money back?

I cannot "badmouth" ?

I can and i will if i have to. They cannot take my money and not fulfil their duties. They don't even have decency to reply honestly.

In purchase history go to the right of the item, there is more actions, click that, then click on resolve a problem, that will take you to the Resolutions Centre. If you paid with Paypal just follow the steps from there.

If you continue with that attitude you will find yourself banned from the boards. You must follow posting rules if you want to use the boards.

As for "if I have to".....there was no need to Name and Shame before opening a dispute. It is pretty safe to say that posting on the boards will NOT get you a refund, but a dispute will.

The seller's items are located in the US - they are almost certainly sourced from various suppliers after purchase, hence they will often ship separately from different locations. It's great when international purchases arrive quickly, but it is very common for items to arrive 4-5 weeks after purchase.

I have purchased many times from this seller over the last year with no problems at all until I bought two items (individually) last November. One of them arrived very quickly (within 10 days) but the other one didn't get to me till nearly 5 weeks later! They had been posted on the same date so the only explanation was that it was somehow held up in the postal system. You'll probably find that this is what's happened to your order.

It's not fair to leave a neg for the seller just because the postage is delayed - especially for items coming from overseas. Sellers have no control over postal service - neither in this country nor anywhere else.

Got to remember they are having and have been having blizzards across USA and no post was making out of the country for about 2 weeks. Some items may have been luckily enough to get the last plane out before they grounded flights.

I am not sure what I have said to get onto your special list but you need not worry...you are not selling anything that I am looking to buy.

not you Lyndal. The one with the attitude!

Thanks for that....I could not work out what I might have said, but you did reply to my post.

I have had sellers ban me for less....just because they do not like me I guess.

Well, I must admit, that there are really some very good sellers to deal with on eBay ! Recently I received absolutely fantastic service from a Chineese seller (Whensoever) - I bought a dress from them which I had to exchange due to the wrong size. But, what a quick and excellent service that was ! It is an absolute pleasure to deal with that seller ! I was getting responses to all my e-mails to them promptly, within half hour me posting them.

Unlike the one who was the reason for me creating this topic...

To all, who attacked me here : - still did not receive the item from them ! Looks like I have to go into PayPal dispute with them after all...
