I think I just got scammed

So I don't use ebay very often, but trying to buy an expensive item, I looked in the sales history of what a good price is. When I saw a relatively good price, I pulled the trigger and paid.

 

To my horror, I realized the seller has 0 feedback.

Red flags I see so far:
1) Seller has 0 feedback
2) Estimated delivery was 7/19 Thursday, it is now 7/22, with status "In Transit to Next Facility" for the last two days

I almost never have a delivery this late. My prediction is that the seller is using some sort of delay tatic.
Let the carrier juggle the package with a bad address to stall me out of the buyer's protection window.

Any tips? I'm sweating pretty hard right now. I want to act fast while I still can.

i did not suggest to open a case on ebay and paypal at the same time. to be more clear, i suggested that he/she has right to open a case on ebay as well as on paypal.

Not in my neighborhood, they don't.

The only thing on a USPS vehicle here on Sunday is Amazon.
