Good stuff @sherpa_man how is it?

sherpa_man

How did you pay? @sherpa_man

sherpa_man

paypal

hoping it turns up as i want the guitar. 

Adam_MD

Proper PayPal or ppg?

sherpa_man

yeah proper paypal

Trotter

Blimey! Hope this works out for you @sherpa_man , pitchforks at the ready.

xmrchi

With proper PayPal you shouldn't have too much of an issue, how long ago did you buy it?

McToot

Me too.  I got the feeling that @leerocker either knows the geezer or has crossed paths with him.  Maybe he can help?

sherpa_man

I paid last week, its not so much the guitar isn't here yet, i know its been a bank holiday etc etc, he is reading my text messages and not replying to simple questions, he is also cutting my calls. It maybe nothing but when i sell guitars and amps, i feels communication with the buyer is so important.

Maybe thats just my line of work, I'm sure it will turn up.

No - I don't think it's just you.  Sounds odd.  Have you got a tracking number or anything?

sherpa_man

nothing no,

Adam_MD

Message them again to ask for an update and inform them if you receive no reply you will escalate to PayPal.

sherpa_man

already done that and nothing, i may just open it through paypal anyway, just to get a reply from him.

Adam_MD

I would if I was in your shoes.

I've been looking on HotUKDeals and there is a great deal on pitchforks if you buy them in bulk at the moment. Does anybody want in?

Hope you get this sorted @sherpa_man!

sherpa_man

I'm sure i will, 

I'm just used to people being in contact when i buy things,

The last guitar I bought off eBay took 3 very polite messages and 5 days before I got a reply. I was on the brink of opening a case but it turned out the seller was just a grumpy old man who probably wasn't a very good communicator. All worked out well in the end, hope it's the same for you.
