so i bought and paid for this http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=713465577, xfire is their username, its been over a week (paid on the 6th april) and items have not turned up and I'm not getting anything from the seller (emails). Profile has the Name: Allan, and from Location: Christchurch City. A little bit of searching and i think a profile here, http://www.geekzone.co.nz/user_public.asp?user_id=37877 is the same person, cause of the first name being the same and some of there post saY they live in christchurch, so I'm going with the same person, and i have found this http://www.linkedin.com/pub/allan-mcclure/3/6a8/684. Wondering if anyone here has had any dealings with him.

Have reported this to trade me, and have to wait 5 days to hear back. Also i paid though credit card can i get the bank to reverse it.

also email address is allan@am.geek.nz

Balm its gone!

I can't give you much information on the person except to say this user hasn't logged in a few years...

Yes, you should be able to reverse the credit card charges but wouldn't be good to wait ten days? One week is barely enough time for post to cross country at cheapest prices.

If you can track the items try it (obvious is obvious) but yes, after waiting this long you can start making waves around the credit card...
