    I had a situation similar to RoryRory except that I was the buyer. I bought a wardrobe for DS's room on ebay and kept emailing the seller with no response. I even wrote in the final email that if there was no contact in the next couple of days I would leave negative feedback. Then I found somewhere on ebay that you could actually get the sellers contact details which included a contact telephone number. My DH rang them for me and the sellers husband answered the phone. Turned out that the womans brother had just died in a car accident. I felt terrible that I had been mean in the email. We told them not to worry about it, and worked out how to cancel the auction with them.

    I bought W a video camera from o/s on ebay....the discription said it would be here in 15 days...BEAUTY in time for his birthday.......15 days came and went....20.....25...30...day 32 I reported through ebay that the item was never recieved and I had NEVER recieved an email from the seller.
    The Seller is hounding me to take my action on ebay down as 'he did send it' and his paypal account has been frozen pending outcome.
    I simply told him that maybe he should have emailed me back at least or emailed me to let me know the camera was sent...which he didnt like but yet again demanded that I take down my report.

    BUGGER OFF!!!!!!

    This is the second time in a month that Ive been burnt like this.....first time was an over locker that still hasnt turned up...hmmmm but thank god for paypal is all I gotta say.

    Rayray hon...totally understand when you dont want to get on due to what you went through and any seller/buyer would understand fully the reason why. Its those who do it to rip people off that need to have a 2x4 piece of wood clocked on their heads

    Like Rory mentioned i do take into consideration something may have sadly happened to the Seller/Buyer ... for example last year i didn't receive a top i purchased off OZtion for my DD, then about 2mths later i got an email from the Seller madly apologising that she & her DD had been placed in a refuge and therefore she wasn't able to make contact let alone post the goods ... i think from some emails you can tell who is genuine or not, ... it's the Sellers who make threats that make my blood boil
