<p>[QUOTE="Troodon, post: 404193, member: 4626"]I can hope. They claimed they sent a replacement... likely they forgot (or didn't bother) to send the first one and only sent a second shipment after being prompted, a scenario that looks like it played out with other buyers before. I noticed that in their repsone to my PayPal dispute they sent the tracking info for the "second" shipment but none for the first they claimed. Sounds like a scam to at very least improve their cashflow and take the chance the buyer will forget about the item after so long a wait and not have to give anything up for what they were paid... (Also likely a delaying tactic to ensure that the time runs out for opening up an eBay/PayPal dispute while the buyer is still waiting for his item to show up.)</p><p><br /></p><p>At any rate even if they really sent it at this point I would refuse the shipment and demand a refund out of principle.</p><p><br /></p><p>At least I don't have to be worried about being scammed by them again, now that they've done me the favor of blocking me from their auctions (I love how people who do this think it's a punishment lol).
