Waiting for a parcel from the States for which I paid by paypal via credit card ( it was bought outside ebay) but as a seller the guy has 100% feedback for 500+ items.

He was supposed to send registered airmail but says he has misplaced the tracking number.

It's just over 3 weeks since I paid - am I getting paranoid about not receiving yet ( I know there has been some correspondence on here about late parcels from the States) and I have today received a couple posted only last week!

Is there a time limit on putting a claim in or should I hang on? ( not saying the seller is dodgy, just need to know my rights.

Any help greatly appreciated.

TIA

Julian

this is from the paypal site:

Here's how it works:

• Visit the Resolution Center and open a dispute within 45 days from the date you sent payment

Thanks - why didn't I think of that!
