Alan,

If an eBay purchase does not show up it hardly ever is a question of a 
dishonest seller, the parcel can be underway for months or very rarely 
can get lost. In such a case it is usual to contact the seller first 
_/*before*/_ giving him a bad rating, so the seller can resend the 
article or give you a full refund which would deserve a positive rating!!

Especially if you buy from Hong Kong or China (dirt cheap and often free 
shipping) it may take days or a few months before the item shows up at 
its destination. I always got a full refund if an item did not show up 
after a few months. However the item always showed up some time later so 
I paid the seller back again.
