I bidded on an item on ebay wich i have finally won(Voodoo 5 5500 PCI MAC)
The seller contacted me and told me i must pay in 3 working days.I told him i didnt see that and if he couldent wait for the money then he most sell it too the bidder under me.And cos i was out the country i couldent pay him within 3 days.I told him that,then he asked me when i was able too pay,i told him begin February.So i paid him on 07/02/2010.Now since the payment hes not responding too my questions :(

so it was finished 16/01/2010.

Should i wait more or should i take actions??And what actions can i take?I hope this is not a rip off...i paid a lot for it..

you better aks befor bidding if you want to pay 3weeks later ::)

what ebay was it
com, de, nl, what ever?

mm it was ebay.uk i think.
I told him if he couldent wait for the money he could sell it too the other bidder under me.
but actually it doesnt matter,i paid him....there is no reason too not reacting on my mails...its suspicious...
And the question was..should i wait more days for a respond or should i take actions?And wich actions,

Usually I wont bid on something unless Ill be able to pay in a few days. But, you told him to go ahead and sell it to the next highest bidder. So it shouldnt even have been a problem for the seller. He should have atleast let you know after you paid. If he had already sold it before you paid him, then he should just refund the money back at the very least.

Id start a dispute with the seller. All he has to do is refund the money if hes already sold the card.    ;)

mm okay...but what happens if he doesnt answers?

Your best bet is to read up on ebay and Paypal's options for filing a dispute.  There are certain time restrictions you need to be aware of so you don't get screwed.  The help page on Paypal is fairly easy to navigate and get your answers.

PayPal-claims moeten binnen 45 dagen na de datum van betaling ingediend worden.

It says paypal claims most within 45 days after payment.
So i paid the 07/02/2010
Its just...i know he had too wait a certain time for his money...but after all i payed for it.Maybe hes doing this on purpose cos i letted him wait(but i told him)
Its just,when they not replying on my mails its a strange feeling..

Please note that you have up to 20 days from the date you filed a dispute to escalate it to a claim.

The tutorial looks good:  https://www.paypal.com/ca/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=xpt/CaseManagement/customerservice/EducationIdentifyIssue

"Open dispute right away"

Okay...here is what i did :)
I asked on ebay the contact info of the seller wich i received.So i did a phonecall too UK :o
I had his mom on the line(lol)And she told me that he has posted smt like a graphic card ^^
And if there was any problem i dont have too hestiate too phone again !!

So lets wait some

Lets hope he posted it to you and not someone else!

As long as the seller responds to the dispute, there won't be any chargeback done, but such cases can last for weeks, which is a pain

Any updates on this???

Update !!

Item received :)

I don't know where you live, but if you are anywhere in North America, and it was sent by sea mail rather than air mail, you'll wait quite a while.  It could take 2 weeks, 3 weeks, IDK really to cross the ocean, then spean a good quarrentined in customs, all before it gets sent to the land mail service.
