ggggrrrrrrr.........
I am really hating EBAY right now!!! -- ok maybe that's a little harsh, but a seller on ebay.
Its been over a month since we paid, and no item, no returned emails, no phone calls back after messages left. I had to take up a dispute with paypal!!!

the seller has like 4000 feedbacks with a 99.7% positive feedback.....
DH and I have purchased over 900 items on ebay (mostly automotive) but this is the first time we have gotten STUCK on something!!!
I hope the paypal distute process works.
sorry, I needed to vent.
