I just need to know if he's combined them or not, because if he has then he has gone against the correct address and posted them all to the wrong one.

He said in a previous message for me to speak to the courier but he hasn't given me a tracking number to use or a courier name.

All my stuff with him has some via the Royal Mail for the uk bit. He tends to combine postage but eBay seems to have changed it's system which used to let you request a total for multiple items.

Should I put a complaint in to eBay if he is not responding or giving me despatch or tracking details?

And the fact that he won't confirm or deny combining them into one package is disturbing me as it could all go to the wrong address.

Even if you've already put one in; make another one. That way when the package shows up at the building site; they'll know where to redirect it.
That's a good point! Just make sure the Royal Mail don't try and sucker you with there mail forwarding service, it's extortionately expensive!


Alpha you actually got a reply off him?!
YUP ... is it an occasion if you do? :haha: ....His replies are generally very vague...Cracks me up everytime :haha:

The way the complaint system is set up on EBAY.... once you start anything... it automatically joins the complaint with Paypal... So jumping back to what Tom said about J banning you....the risk is there

Sorry Merlin! I made my comments about putting in a change of address with the Post Office because when I saw that you are listed in being in Lincoln, I assumed it was Nebraska, not England. I'm glad that Tom caught the fact that you would be dealing with the ROYAL Mail, NOT the US Mail! -Mike

Ebay started taking a percentage from postage... Blame it on the Chinese lol....they used to sell stuff for like a dollar...and charge 400.00 dollars for shipping :haha:

In a way it's better now that they do take a percentage from the shipping..more sellers are posting more fare rates... rather than exaggerated ;)

Unfortunately I have now had to involve eBay to try and get contact from Jason's store.

The only thing I have managed to get out of him is parcel force, but no tracking number.
When I've contacted parcel force, they inform me that neither address is registering on there system and that no parcel is destined for me.
The plot thickens, as I am now concerned that I may have paid for a part that didn't exist, double that with the severe lack of comms from Jason or refusal to give a tracking number leaves me with serious concerns.

I didn't want to go down this route however I am left with no other choice.
