Re: problem with ebay purchase of stones tickets- please help

Brewcrew, it is still 16 days until the concert and only 12 days after you paid for the tickets. Ticketmaster shipping screwups do occur, so that alone is not a reason to feel the seller is not honest. The fact that a week has gone by and you have not heard from the seller does not mean he is screwing you over. If he is honest, he probably has not contacted you yet because he has not received the tickets from Ticketmaster, thus he has no update to contact you about.
Why would you ever accept that you are out your money? You are reacting too quickly and not very rationally. Ebay and Paypal will protect you if the seller turns out to be dishonest, but as you have plenty of time til the concert, relax and be patient. By the way, how does the seller's Ebay feedback look? That itself can tell you whether the seller is likely to be trustworthy. I have sold and bought a lot of tickets on Ebay and have never been screwed over.
