Ok so awhile back I made a purchase from this guy, sent him the money via pay-pal didn't use my cc wich I kinda thought I should have but wanted to make it easier for us both, and he says he shipped it. No tacking nothing and he says it was going to take awhile because the deal he gave me was a pretty good one and he wanted to save a few bucks on the shiopping cost. Wich had I known he was that worried about it I would have sent more money but it was already too late. {that whole thing seemed a bit odd to me}
Well the item never arrives, so I email him. He's kept really good contact and emailed me several times and always responds to my emails and he emails me back and says well it should have been there by now but that he's never lost anything in the mail. So I say ok I'll give it a few more days and see. Another week goes by and nothing. So I email him again and told him that it never arrives and that I think something fishy is going on here.
His response is do whatever you want but I'm not sending your money back cause I'm out the item and not going to be out the money. He says take it up with pay-pal. We'll the guy lives in canada the email I sent the money too was a verified account, he had no refferences but had no bad heatware or nothing I could find that states he's a bad trader. I kinda feel like I'm getting cheated but I don't really see a bad trader being willing to keep good contact. Its not that much money and I could care less about the moeny but its the principle.
what do you guys think???

scammed or not? leave a nad heatware and post him as a bad trader or what?
