Here we go again. (And it's not Larry Block.)
On January 15, I bought eBay item 220069780497, a PSA 8 Johnny Orsino from 1967. I paid via Paypal immediately.
On February 5, I asked the seller if everything was okay with the deal, as I had not yet received the card. No response...no card.
On March 7, I asked him again, very nicely, where the card was. Heck, the guy has great feedback, so I'll give him the benefit of the doubt. Response? Nothing. And still no card.
My next move is to email him, and voice my displeasure with his lack of follow-through and communication, and give him until March 15 to deliver the card to my mailbox, or I will post a neg (can I still do that 60 days later??).
I will hold off emailing him until I hear any better ideas from the gallery.
Thanks, guys!

You've got a legitimate beef. hope you get the card. Good luck.

I filed a complaint with eBay, and the seller responded (in a nasty manner) that, too bad, he mailed it, and I'm out of luck. Ebay will not back me (item costs too little) and PayPal won't either (too small for them to bother).
If I leave a neg for this clown (id: imperialcruiser), I'm sure I'll get a retaliatory. Guess it's not worth it.
Sad part is, I was on the other end of similar a loss in December. Buyer (id: wowocards) claimed they never received my cards, and I got stuck for that one as well. (I saw similar cards in a Beckett holder for sale on their site a few weeks later.)
I posted the id's for your reference.
Rats!

also, feedback can be left for up to 90 days. Sometimes longer.
I know that 45 days has passed in this case but it was posted that 30 days was the protocol.
Paypal and ebay do not care how much is involved as long as youfollow the protocols.
Sorry this happened to you.

Sorry to hear this. You were more than patient. Ebay and paypal suck. I would email the seller and ask why he didn't respond to your previous inquires. Poor business practices on his part.
As a good buddy of mine calls it, I would give the seller a 'stick of dynamite' (meaning a NEG.). That is of course if you don't mind putting yourself at risk for a retaliatory neg. from him.
Other buyers need to be made aware at the lack of professionalism
this seller has displayed in basically blowing off your loss and not responding to your requests on the item. He could have at least offered to split the difference with you on the loss. That would be fair.

imperialcruiser huh, yeah that guy owes me $260. I purchased a raw Ernie Banks rookie from him last year sometime and I sent it in to be graded by PSA and it came back trimmed. I politely emailed him and told him the situation and that I would return the card and I would like my money back. He tells me, it came from his own collection and this is a mistake but he says he will refund my money. Anyways I send the card with delivery conf. and even though it states that he received he claims he did not receive it. By this time claim time from Paypal has passed and I paid with an instant transfer from checking acct. so credit card dispute is out of the question.
Anyways, I have only bought PSA, BGS, or SGC graded cards since, nothing raw. I am out $260 bucks, but I learned a valuable lesson. So to sum up up this post, avoid this schmuck like the plague.
I feel better already!
