So really .... I'm screwed !?! 30 days?

So really  ...... I'm hooped?

I sent yet another request to the seller to send me back my money.  Still nothing, so I went to open a buyer protection thing only to see this:

" Unfortunately, your purchase is no longer eligible for eBay Buyer Protection since 30 days have passed since the estimated delivery date of the item but we encourage you to contact the seller to work things out. Most sellers want their buyers to be satisfied and will work with you. ......"

I didn't know that, so I guess I'm screwed ..... I'm glad this was only for $12 bucks or I'd be really **bleep**.  I think Ebay should make that 30 DAY rule better known .... this sucks.  Has ebay ever thought that shipping from China might take close to 30 days?

I also can't leave feedback so I can tell others that these guys hosed me ..... because it says:

We are unable to add your feedback for 1 transaction

Here's why:
Item was not found because:
This item number does not exist
Or you have already left feedback.

THIS SUCKS ...... I haven't left feedback because that's the tool, I like to use to make sure I get my stuff .....

I guess I'm screwed huh kids.  Too bad but it is the first time I ever got hosed so - oh well .....

Can you guys think of anything I can do?

Cheers'

If the item was not as described, you should still be able to return the item. Try making a return request. If you suddenly decided you did not want the item, you are in the 30 day thing. You are lucky the seller even offers 30 day returns...most sellers offer no or 14 day returns.

Hi XE,

No,

They claimed they shipped it and kept saying just wait, so I did. I've already asked for my money back twice but no answer ..... so today I sent the request again and then went to use my ebay money back guarantee but then saw all this after 30 days BS. I had NO clue that was a thing with ebay ....

Again for stuff that's from overseas it'll take at least 30 days sometimes ..... I'm pretty sure I'm screwed and they haven't bothered to reply to me for a while so they probably knew about the ebay 30 days deal and just convinced me to wait ....

I'm still lucky that it was only $12 bucks so that make's it a bit better .... from now on if I don't get my stuff in 30 days from now on going forward I'll be instantly launching ebay's money back guarantee no matter what. I'm also choked that I can't tell others to avoid this seller .....

Thanks for the note - BTW!

Cheers'

So, the item has not arrived yet? If it had not, you should be able to get your money back with the eBay money back guarantee. What is the estimated delivery date of the item? If the estimated delivery date has not passed, the item will probably arrive.
