Seller doesn's ship item.... What can I do, as Ebay tells me to email the seller

[nederland1han]

On Thursday 06.25.2015 I purchased a item. Shortly after that (same evening) I paid for the item and received a email from the seller thanking me for my purchase and later on even offered to meet on Friday to hand deliver the item to me. That was the last time I heard from him.

I know that he marked the item as "shipped" on Ebay on 06.25.2015 at 8:46pm (PST)

But USPS (Priority Mail) tracking shows: Pre-Shipment. A shipping label has been prepared for your item at 8:48pm on June 25, 2015 in Olympia, WA98516

Strange thing is, the seller has registered under Federal Wa, and i live in Lacey, which is about 5 miles away from where the Pre-Shipping label was created.

I attempted to start a case/report with Ebay, but it states to give the seller more time to make things right. I emailed the seller on Friday, Sunday and now this morning. This morning I gave him the choice to make things right and if he failed to do so, I would start a claim with Ebay for him, the seller not following true with the sale as he already has the money since June 25, 2015.


Thank you all for your advise.
