Have I been scammed?

Bought a pushchair from this ebay seller
http://myworld.ebay.co.uk/lisaof

I sent a postal order as I dont use paypal. I sent this on the 23rd of June 2007. I have not heard nothing back from the seller. I have requested her contact info from eBay and her mobile is constantly off.

I have emailed her a number of times but never any reply.

Strange thing is she has not left any feedback for anyone since the 21st. But she left me feedback before I even sent the cash.

She has no listings either but people are still leaving her feedback.

Opinions?

Re: Have I been scammed?

Did you send the postal order recorded delivery and keep the stubs from them?

Re: Have I been scammed?

How many emails have you sent her? Did you send them through eBay?

You might want to open a dispute, this will mean eBay gives her a warning and she should get her backside into gear http://feedback.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?InrCreateDispute

Having said that, the seller seems reliable and i wouldn't worry too much, as annoying as it is, i'm sure your money isn't lost (fingers crossed)

Re: Have I been scammed?

I've never used ebay, but if you bought the £19.99 pushchair a scam seems somewhat unlikely, simply because the item is not very expensive.

Harvington has a Worcester post code, which is flooded looking at the cricket ground.

Anyway why the concern, you sent to PO 5 working days ago, for the other person to have received it and sent the goods to you and to have receeived those within 5 working days would be good going, if not a miracle. IF you wanted it quicker you should use paypal.
