Happy Ending to this deal
Package resurfaced and got delivered in the UK, called Ebay to let them know that it was scanned as delivered on Jan 31st , they finally refunded me the money.
I had to escalate to the manager level with their customer service, I was not taking no for an answer , after I heard the rep saying " we are going to see what if anything can be done ...." I stopped him there and asked for his superior !
after waiting for 10 days for the refund, now they were going to see about maybe ....no no no !
I told him that and he placed me on hold, came back, telling me his boss had given him the ok to refund me
I told him I had already been told that before and he said this time it was going to be done for sure
he apologized for all the trouble and assured me all wil be ok for me to received that money back .
today I got my refund
Yay Pony Money !!:)
