I don't have much experience with eBay and I figured some of you probably do. I purchased an item and sent it back when I received it because it wasn't what the seller had described. He told me I'd get a full refund as soon as he got the shipment back. Fast forward to 2 days ago, USPS tried to deliver and the dude apparently wasn't home. Haven't heard anything since then. Payment went through PayPal, for the record.

Anyone know the best next move to get the refund? Should I try and bypass him or be patient?

I'd be patient if he just hasn't received it yet.

prepare thy anus.

visa would hook you up in a heartbeat with a refund and go after the seller.

paypal fricking sucks and you'll eventually give up trying to get your money back through them.

Give it a few days. Then work with PayPal. You will need to give them the tracking number.

E-Bay's got you covered with their buyer protection plan.

Payment through Paypal?

When you return anything, always go through the Ebay return process. It ensures that he stays on top of it. Even if he is communicating. He shouldn't take it as a slight.

Paypal is always on the buyers side, so you WILL get your money back. Even if you damaged the parts and it was wrong on your end.
Ebay always sides with the buyer.
