e-bay question!

[KingT]

Wasnt sure which board to post this at, wasnt selling anything so im sure this topic is allowed i hope... anyway on to my question!

I recently bought a game off of e-bay and had sent my money order to the guy about a week ago, i was wondering what can i do if i dont hear from him and he keeps my money order or cashes it in....

Is there anything i can do beside leave negative feedback? kind of worried cause i left the guy emails and no reply yet... Thanks alot

That "E" word you used is kinda-semi-banned-unbanned but disliked by most....

If the guy takes your money and doesn't send the goods to you, there's not a whole lot you can do unless he's doing it to a lot of people and ya'll complain. Then he could be investigated and so on....

Ah hope i dont get in too much trouble for using the word ... thanks for the help Mikal!

with postal money order I think you can file for mail fraud on the guy. but don't quote me on that.

If the guy does a lot of auctions, he may not email people when he gets payments for small items. (I dont email people for stuff under $10, I just send it out). You should give 2 weeks+2 days (1 week for your payment to get there, 2 days for him to ship it, 1 week for your item to get to you) to arrive. If it doesnt arrive by then, email him and ask what happened.
