Richard,

Just file a claim with PayPal and eBay. You should have the item number
in your email communications with the seller.

Subject: [NTLK] (OT) Datarover

Hello list, just wanted to let you guys know how my ebay purchase of a
datarover went. I'm not sure if the dates are exact because it has been
a few months and all traces of my purchase have vanished from Ebay I was
under the mistaken impression that they auctions were kept for 90 days
and it turns out it was only 60. On December 23,2004 i used the buy it
now to purchase a new Datarover from Hiddentreasure4u or something like
that, I sent payment immediately via paypal , and was contacted that i
needed to add more for shipping which i did instantly via paypal, after
about a week i sent an email asking if the unit had been sent so i could
have an idea when it would arrive, i was informed that they were sorry
but hadn't sent it out yet but would do it the same day. I also
contacted another person that is on this list that bought one from them
and they said it arrived like described (brand new). So i figured all
was well and i sat back and waited considering this package was coming
from the States to Italy I knew on rare occasions it could take quite a
while. Since i have lived in Italy i have received about 120 packages
from the States via regular surface mail and the longest wait was 1month
16 days, but packages usually arrive within 2 weeks. Well it is now
March 16, 2005 and the package never arrived, I did contact the seller a
2 times during the wait and they said to be patient it was coming, after
the 60 days were up the item was no longer in my ebay so i couldn't even
leave feedback, I tried to contact the seller after the item was no
longer on Ebay but of course the seller never replied.

I have no idea if the package was sent and lost or stolen in the mail or
if it wasn't sent at all (in fact my feedback would have stated package
not received most likely lost in mail) but what really pisses me off is
that the seller would not reply to my emails. Anyway just a heads up to
everyone on my experience with this particular ebayer.

Richard
