Ebay problems - suggestions anyone?

I sold some furniture on eBay, the auction listing ended on Thursday night and the buyer payed me immediately via Paypal, but now he isn't responding to any emails asking him to let me know when he wants to come & collect the furniture.

I clearly stated on the listing and in an email I sent after he paid that I ideally wanted it collecting over the bank holiday weekend and I've also told the guy in another email yesterday that I'm moving house next Saturday so he has until then to come & get it but he hasn't been in contact at all since sending the payment.

Anyone know if there's any way I can get the phone number he registered with ebay so I can try & ring him?

If he doesnt come & collect it before I move house what do i do? The whole reason I was selling it was that I don't have room for the stuff at the new house so I don't want to have to take it with me and it'd probably mean hiring a van as well which will probably cost as much as I sold the sodding stuff for in the first place!

Link for getting buyers phone number is...

You'll need the buyers user ID and the transaction number.

The buyer will also recieve your number as well.

HTH.

If you can start a paypal dispute as a seller I probably would look into that.

Message him through paypal or ebay saying if he doesn't come and get it you'll leave it outside the house or dispose of it when you move.

Perhaps the buyer is away for the weekend?

Thanks MB I searched and serached ebay but didnt find that page somehow, doh!

YC I thought about just leaving it and it's his tough s*** if he doesnt collect it, but he can apparently chargeback my Paypal account for the amount he paid if he doesnt collect/receive the items

Yeah I guess he might be but he still could have just sent me a quick note to say that instead of just leaving me to guess.
