Is there a confirmation shipping number? If not, she is responsible. And you don't have to wait if she can't prove she shipped it.

Only one time did I not receive something that I had paid for on ebay. The seller refunded my money without a problem. I certainly understand your frustration, though.

Have you tried opening a complaint with Paypal? I am assuming you paid through PayPal.

Here are the timelines eBay uses for complaints:

Timelines

If you haven't received an item, you can open a case after the estimated delivery date (if available) or 7 days after making payment (if no estimated delivery date was provided).

Good luck. Maybe it is hung up in the mail. Our mail is a couple days behind due to the holidays.

I live in canada, and sell on Ebay, could it be coming from Canada, if you're in US?? Some can take a LONG time, also we have less PO days (no saturdays) and with the holidays??
Some sellers also only post once or twice a week, so if it was me, I think I'd wait a few more days.

I'm pretty sure she's still responsible. I think ebay changed its rules to require sellers to either buy insurance or proof of delivery. You may have to wait a few weeks, but if you paid through PayPal, you can dispute through PP and you will get a refund. Then you can leave neg feedback. Good Luck.

How was it shipped? If priority mail, you should have it already. If parcel post...who knows. I've seen things take nearly 2 weeks to get from one of our suppliers on the south side of Dallas to here...less than an hour's drive.
