Didn't the auction state, prior to bidding, the type of payment that would be acceptable?
I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment
<< <i>... they made me pay with a money order and claim to have sent my coin via insured USPS two weeks ago. However, I still have received no coin. From now on it is paypal only for me ... period. >>
Ask for a tracking number. If they hem and haw instead of providing it, then I would worry.
<< <i>They state that the shipping includes insurance, so you should be covered. Tell(ask) them to refund and file the insurance you paid for. >>
That's what I would do, I had a coin get lost (I was the seller). Waited 30 days and refunded the buyers money and filed the claim with the PO. If they never shipped the coin, well then you are screwed.
experiences? it is like you are looking for something to good to be
true and get caught into these situations...
No PayPal was annoying, but the coin arrived safely, and I was pleased with it. No worries...

no valid tracking number?
AND your giving them two more weeks...
Come on Fletch, is it reall you at the keyboard
p.s.
why did they MAKE you pay with a money order?
<< <i>maybe you need to stop using ebay altogether based on your
experiences? it is like you are looking for something to good to be
true and get caught into these situations... >>
"Too good to be true?" Ummm ... no, I just want to receive what I paid for. And, if it isn't delivered, I want my money back after a reasonable period of time. That is all ... it still may happen. I have happily agreed to two more weeks before we discuss the issue again. I am sending positive vibes into the ether. We are allowed to do that here ... after all, it is California
and now they won't refund- as some folks told me in my thread the other day- I should just chill wait for the coin to show up.
NOT!! if you have waited this long and have transpired talks regarding this- I (IMO) would no longer 'ask' for the refund- but demand it or send proof that coin was actually shipped.
Thew world is getting full of thieves these days - I truly hate hearing this.

Sorry I should have read the entire thread before responding my bad. I would ask for a corrected insurance number. If he is unable to provide it I would light his butt up on May 4th.

Frankly, I find paypal to be another way for ebay to clip their users for another couple percent. On the other hand, I've resorted to sending my money orders by certified mail, or at least getting a proof of delivery, depending on the amount of money involved.
Sorry for your troubles.
Edited - Whoops! I see that they claim to have already mailed it insured. Eventually, they will have to file a claim, but the Post Office won't even do that until a certain time has elapsed, and I don't remember how long that is.
I knew it would happen.
