Coventry Military Surplus

[hairyyoda]

Some help needed if possible please.
Bought a item from Coventry Military Surplus on Ebay on the 17th March, had a email telling me that there had been a bereavement in their family, I emailed back and saying "sorry to hear that and that there is no rush", so far no parcel has arrived with me and my emails and phone calls are not being answered. Owners name is Mike I think surname could be Gardner, Bulwer Road, Coventry "Anyone know anything that could be of help ?"
Thanks all Phil

Update.
"managed to get a reply from a text to a mobile" all is not lost yet we live in hope Phil

IIRC you have 45 days to lodge a dispute with Ebay. Time is almost up, so do so. At least that way you can get your money back. It may be enough of a nudge to get your goods sent.

With you on that Radagast
Ebay has said that they will start a claim after May 2nd, but I would rather receive the item as it would suit me better. Thought I would just do some detective work with a few questions, just me fishing and wondering "why me again "
Me bad Phil

There used to be quite a good Army Surplus shop near Sarnau - is it still there I wonder. Anybody want to buy an South African Bergen thing - sort of rucksack. Never used, no frame. Used to be all the rage.

New owners in Sarnau a few years ago, gone upmarket a bit and their prices. Seven years ago bought Kite transport cases in vgc for £8.00 a piece. Phil
