Question of "Who's at fault"

I bought two tickets to the Falcons Rams game for this Sunday 09/19 on Tuesday afternoon 09/14 off eBay. The guy lives close to me but wanted to ship them so I paid $8 for 2nd day FedEx. They were supposed to arrive this morning by 10am. They never came in. I'm hoping they come in tomorrow, but if they don't who is at fault? Assuming that they were actually mailed, do I request that PayPal refund my money due to non-reciept. This could be a problem if they come in later though. Should I go directly to my credit card and explain the problem? Also even if I get my money will FedEx refund the guys money because they screwed up the shipment.

Thanks for the help,
Brian

    Not much Steve, I've got to that stage on my '65's where they are tougher to get - about 75% done. Nice pickup on Santo and Richardson! Santo in an 8 was a really good deal.

    I emailed him eariler - I'm waiting for a response. If no response I'll get his contact info. Like I said, they may still come in tomorrow so I still have hope. If they don't, I'd have to pay probably a lot more for the tickets on the street so it's pretty frustrating.

    if they don't show, they are no longer "as purchased" and you can/should dispute them and/or return them for a refund.

    Also, if the package arrives after tomorrow, do not sign for receiving it.

    Hi Brian
    Did he give you a tracking number?
    I bet they come this afternoon.
    Good luck!
    You are at 75%? What's holding you back!LOL

    Brian - I'm not 100% sure of this but I don't think FedX 2nd day air delivers on Saturdays. I believe it is for weekdays only. Also many times 2nd day air just means delivery sometime on the second day, not necessarily before 10:00am. Good idea was posted to get the tracking number. Good luck!

    If the tickets don't come in time for the game don't sign for them. If the credit card company does not do you justice then do a Charge Back to your Credit Card. That works wonders. I have done a Charge Back a few times myself. Good Luck!

    Stone, Merchants HATE Chargebacks because the onus is put back on them. Cornholio, don't sweat it if you used plastic, even through PayPal.

    Yeah, I forgot to post earlier - I got them this morning! I'll be at the game, and I'll be loud enough to cause a few Ram's false starts!

    Thanks for the help guys,
