I purchased some gear here and sent the payment ($450.00) 7 days ago and the seller still have the gear, no tracking number, no replies since last friday.

Should I contact Paypal or should I wait a bit longer?

Well, did you send payment as a Gift? Or, did you send a payment that has a credit card to back it up? Have you attempted to contact him here via PM? If you want to flush the guy out, advise him or her that, unless you get an immediate response to your PM, you WILL post his/her name here in the clear by posting a link to the FS ad to which you responded. You can bring the weight of FM on this seller if you need to. It'd be a cold day in hell before I went 7 days with no response from a Seller.

Thank you, I paid with my credit card but via Paypal as a gift since I agreed with him because he did gave me a good price for the gear. He is a member since 2008, I have all his contact info from his website.
I will send another pm to him now, if I dont get a response, I will provide his info. I did sent him few pm over the weekend but never got a reply form him.

Well, let's hope that his account was not hijacked by somebody. Having used you CC to pay for the gear may afford you some protection. Even so... there are some threads here about how using Gift as the payment option makes it far more complicated to retrieve your money. Good luck

Thank you Devil Dog, I do understand the risk of doing so, but sometimes I think of others like I do of myself, a honest person.

I just sent the msg to him, he did mentioned last thursday that he had lots of work, hopefully thats the case, still not right but that way I dont have to contact my credit card and bring his name out.

Using Paypal gift with a credit card as a funding source doesn't make a lot of sense to me since the buyer is charged an approx. 3% fee. If you're going to pay that fee, you should just go ahead and send Paypal payment for goods and services in that same amount to net the seller his desired price. That way, you at least have Paypal's buyer protection.

Hi mitesh,

yes, it was a very stupid move from me, I realized that after the fact.

Contact Fred, ask if he's had any suspicious activity on his account.

Looks like it is shipping from Canada if it is the PWs you purchased. Customs delays and the hassle with fees? Good luck and hope it gets resolved quickly for you.
