This has been going on for nearly 3 months now.
Item ordered never arrived - only worth a small amount of money but that is not the point.
Seller doesn't respond to messages.
Ebay closed the case without getting me the item I'd paid for or a refund - all very unsatisfactory.
Automated system I'm left with just goes round in circles getting nowhere.
I doubt there is anything I can do but this is not an acceptable situation.
