i called, and left a message. I have a UPS tracking number, but it hasnt been picked up yet. and, he is no longer a ebay user... now what do i do?
maybe i am over reacting? |

you have got it surprisingly cheap tho, in the uk you would be spending at least 700 on something of that spec

you'll have a hard time getting your money back seeing as he's not a registered user anymore. probably had all the money withdrawn from his paypal account as well. you'll get $175 back after a week or so, i think. and then the rest you'll have to wait a couple of months... that's if you never get your stuff. |

Thanks for your help all.
i just got this email from them.
" I apologize, there seems to have been an error in shipping. I have talked to the guys there and a new shipment should be sent soon. I've kept the same tracking number to make things a little bit easier.
Thank you very much for your support, and please let us know if you have any further questions. "
so hopefully i will see it soon. |
