    Dispute it through Paypal and just provide anything they ask you for.

      Contact him to make sure the parts were shipped, check the shipping service if he says yes, if not, contact paypal.

        how long ago did you pay for the parts?
        has he been in contact with you, or is he not replying emails or phone calls?

          I've got one of these as well. Paypal won't do shit they suck ass. If you can find out or know where the guy lives you can call the local PD.

                It's only been like 6 days and sometimes it takes a while for the money to transfer into the bank account of the seller, so he might only ship it out after the money clears. then you have to wait for it to actually come to your house.
                send him an email and see if he can provide you some tracking information

                wait another 2 weeks at the very least before starting to worry

                      uh remind me to never buy anything from you lol...if I send a stranger money over the internet and don't hear anything for a week I'm disputing that shit. That's just rude and lazy and retarded and unprofessional. But then, I'd be getting ignored after contacting him repeatedly...have you done that? What's the story here?

                        +1 common courtesy. If you receive payment get off you ass and ship them their shizz! Send people their stuff in a timely manner or let them know up front.

                          This fucktard is on the east coast, if something he bought was on the west coast it would take at LEAST a week to arrive even if it was shipped the same minute the money arrived. There is not enough information to pass judgment on the seller, only to know that they buyer is an impatient whiner and should be avoided in the future.

                            I have a similar issue, except the seller said he'd be shipping 3-day air from UPS, and I've been waiting 2 and a half weeks!
                            Not only that, he says UPS is supposed to email me a tracking #.
                            He keeps telling me that its coming and it's probably stuck at customs (I'm in Canada, he shipped from California).

                            I think it's ridiculous, I ordered something from Germany and the package shipped with DHL and came here in a week, flat.

                              This is something I would be getting worried about, not what the OP is whining about.

                              But I agree with selling stuff promptly when payment arrives. I don't understand how people can just sit on items and not ship them. It's beyond me.
