I've had exactly the same problem! I ordered 2pairs from this seller on the 27th of last month, listing said delivery on or before the 31st. I emailed them and didn't get a response till the 5th, and they just asked me to check with my local post office if they'd been left there as they couldn't deliver! Which is crap because I know my post man and I know all the girls in our local post office very well as I'm in the 3times a week. Problem is I'm on my hols now

Think ill open a dispute when I get back.

i had that reply about the post office too, just seems like automated responses

1st one - confirm my address
2nd - check with post office
3rd - possibly send replacement
4th - confirm my address
5th - possibly send replacement

then i lost it and sent him a blunt email with my thoughts in it. he has said he'll send some more

He said he'd posted a replacement on the 14th, on monday i was going to message him, but i got an email saying he had refunded me

why say he had posted some more, then give me a refund the week after what a time waster
