    Yes, I am sure - because I've dealt with sellers like this before, and have got results (and then some).

    Again, if anyone can PM me this guy's address (+ any contact details), I'll get this sorted.

    Ta.

    By taking swift and decisive action.

    You need to be extremely forward and pressuring in these situations to ensure good results. An odd email or phone call is just not enough.

    As I said, I've had the unfortunate pleasure of being scammed before, and it was only due to persistence that I managed to get the issue resolved.

    Thanks to the people who provided the necessary details. Hope to report on progress soon.

    Should you need his home address, I hope to have this very soon as I have contacted many of the Ebayers that 'xcitetravel' had previously purchased from. NB, David Hunt from Camden Trading Standards is currently investigating these Companies if this helps.

    If you don't manage to get his home address from any Ebayers you may well get it from any Annual Returns he has filed at the Companies House.
