Am I being unreasonable?

Opening a dispute was the right move. However you shouldn't of gone along with leaving feedback for an unreceived item. By paying through paypal, you have satisfied your end of the transaction until the item is in your hands.

I am currently in a dispute with a seller who I bought a Euro Overlord from but has stopped all contact. It's been a month and there is no item so I have opened a dispute.

The seller has very good feedback but looking deep into it I found a negative for a none arriving Overlord to another buyer. Was that you? The seller's name is eazy-lderzweite

Cant really remember the seller's name... I used my other Ebay account back then 4 years ago- different name. I stopped using that one when I got gipped of that Overlord and Ebay kept freezing my account for some reason and I wasnt able to bid on several TFs which made me miss a lot of items Im after. hence I made this one and stuck by it. The picture this seller used for Overlord had some SD gundams displayed with it. Bastard never communicated , but I was very new to ebay then so I didnt know of dodgy sellers. Thanks for the feedback/input guys. I at least know that I did the right thing.... As of now if he backs out on the deal, Im fine with it I just want my money back.

Yes liege I too know your pain, unfortunately I left it too late to file a dispute with paypal and there was nothing I could do. The really annoying thing is that the item was only supposed to come from Nowra which is a 45 minute drive from where I live.

You've definitely done the right thing though and hopefully the seller in question is just really slow at sending things.

That's what I kept telling myself, 4 years later and Astrotrain still hasn't arrived... guessing he's somewhere around Jupiter?

hi here

1, I had "paypal withholding payment" thing once or twice I can't remember. This can be found in your paypal transaction details and further explanation can be given if you send email to paypal support.

2, no item, no feedback. If I were you, I would tell him "hey I have been working hard to get your payment arrive..blur blur blur" but don't mention giving him feedback before settle down.

3, One way to pushing seller to send item quickly that I usually do is, "Have you sent yet, coz according to ebay, you didn't mark it as POSTED". Use ebay practice against them.

4, （optional）, have some conversation with ebay support about your concern about not receiving the item via email or online. create a "case number" for this issue, get some advice and leave some record in ebay system.

5, the last resort, in paypal, use refund function don't even bother talk to seller. just say "I didn't receive the item, please provide track number or other evidence of posting". So you forward the hot potato to seller. If he can't provide a link to a track number that saying something like "delivery to destination...", then paypal would favour you.

6, the seller did say "I will always reply the same day." on the description. and if he didn't do that all the time, use this against him.

hope it 'll help.

It sounds dodgy to me. Nobody legitimate has any right or reason to ask you to post positive feedback before you've received the item. Do whatever you can to get the item or your money back.

Nobody legitimate has any right or reason to ask you to post positive feedback before you've received the item.

Can you imagine if that happened anywhere else?

e.g.:
+ A restauranteer asking "How's your meal?" before it's been served to you
+ A teacher asking students what they thought of the lesson before teaching it
+ A poll asking what you thought of a politician's performance before they were sworn into office
etc.
