    Have you tried contacting the seller first to sort out any issues? sorry to ask if you already have.
    If so, after logging in, on your account page ,look across the top towards the right-Resolution Centre. Click on that and click dispute transaction, input or choose transaction id and state reason.

    Yes i have sent about 5 messages he is just ignoring me he still as items for sale so he cannot be not receiving them or seeing them when i sent him messages before he answered straight away so his messages go to his phone
    he advertised curtains which i bought at £65 and they are no where near the size he advertised he answered my first message and said he was sorry but do they still fit when i told him no they were to small since then he is not replying
    i dont want to report it but have no choice or i could send him a message saying im going to take it further
  • As has been said, it is not clear if you sent the payment as a gift. If you did, you will not be able to do a chargeback.

    On your other thread, I suggested you ring eBay and explain that the seller told you to send the money before the listing ended. Have you spoken with them?

    Log into your paypal account > click on top where it says resolution centre > top left hand there is a box that says

    Report a problem
    • Didn't receive your item?
    • Received the wrong item?
    • Don't recognise a payment?


    Click on that and you get the choice of disputes, choose the first one which is either INR or SNAD and then it asks for the tranasaction number. Put that in and open your dispute.

    So technically you have bought the curtains outside of ebay?

    It doesn't matter as buyers still have full paypal protection as long as they bought 'goods' and didn't send the money as a gift.

    I can't see why you don't just try a chargeback before you run out of time? Paypal have a horrible habit of telling you exactly what you want to hear on the phone just to get you to go away and their 'advice' should never be relied on.

    However it is your choice, but personally I would be going for theguaranteed route.
