    Sadly I don't think Potters Bar was affected by the weather last week, I would contact pay-pal but just refer to buying "an item" that has not appeared with all communication having ceased.

    I would expect them to ask for advert details but they may not if you give them enough about how many times you have sent messages and asked for tracking details etc making it clear you have tried your best to contact him.

    Probably coincidence but I had to get a refund off eblag that I think might have been Potters Bar, name of N Phillips ?

    You have been scammed!

    Did you not think to google such an unusual name?

    Did you fund the transaction via your credit card?

    If so you might be able to go through them rather than paypal.

    Seriously though, I can see how the OP might have got drawn into this sale; I like the look of the Black star myself and at a good price :-( The unusual name (or is it a username?) may or may not have deserved further investigation. I have been fortunate enough to have bought two items of G* from good sellers (though I also did some background searches). These freeads seem to attract the wrong sort.

    Hope you get a good resolution to this. But the zero Comms since payment does not bode well :-(
