I won an auction, sent payment, still not accepted and no response to messages. How long do I have to wait to cancel?

I have been waiting over a week already and there has not been one single response from the seller. The auction ended on Nov. 20 and I made payment on the 21st.

I have sent 2 messages to him and have been checking to see if he has accepted payment but nothing as of yet.

I just want to know how I will be able to get out of this transaction. I went with this seller because I like to support the independents rather than the bulk sellers but I can get what I want for the same price from a seller that I KNOW will ship immediately. If this is the service I get from an independent, I will go with the bulk seller in the future.

Its up to you but a week+ with no communication is long enough in my opinion. I would cancel the payment.

Its a $10. item and seller may just write the sale off.  No communication is most frustrating and if you do get a response can simply ask seller to cancel.
