seller not collecting payment

[jubillee1]

Purchased an item 5 days ago and made immediate payment. The seller has not claimed the money(paypal) or replied to my emails. Am wondering what step to take now.

@Austream.....Whats with that comment? Makes no difference to what has happened here, I didn't need the wifi for my purpose so it didn't matter to me.

Sorry I just assumed that if someone was buying a tablet they would want to be able to connect to the internet.   Since this was the wi-fi version (not the 3G version) and the seller said she couldn't connect then for most people this device would be useless.  However, if you don't need internet access then I guess it might actually be worth $100 to you.  My mistake. I'm such an internet junkie I can't imagine a tablet that didn't have internet access.  I won't even buy a wi-fi one myself, it has to have 3G so I can use it while on the road, but even then I use the wifi when I do the software updates.  Sorry but my friendly advice is if you buy a tablet it would be wise to have working wifi at the very least 🙂

So tragic.

As Jen suggested contact ebay to have the feedback removed.

Maybe send a message on the account with condolences, suggesting you understand if they don't want to continue with the transaction.

I was buying it for my 8 yr old grandson to play android games on. I planned on downloading them and putting them on through usb. I did not want him to have any access to the internet as he has been caught on sites he had no business being on:)

Don't you have net nanny software on your computer? My grandchildren are allowed free use of their laptops at age 4 and 10 because their Mum has them so locked down that they can only access suitable sites.

Well perhaps It is just as well I wasn't able to purchase as it was obviously a bad decision anyway?:|
