My Tale of the $7.45 Gameboy Bart and the Beanstalk Boxed

So I look on Ebay every day for Gameboy games. About a month ago I come across this:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=110699369941&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT

Yep, pissed a little in my pants. Needless to say I clicked "buy it now" and paid in seconds. I just knew someone would snake me, so I waited for the "Someone offered me more money" refund. The next day, to my surprise, I get the "Your item just shipped" email with a tracking number!! I think no way, I am the luckiest guy around.

Well to make a long story short, it never came The tracking number has said the same thing:
"Origin Post is Preparing Shipment"

I have contacted the seller and no response. I then opened a claim and they sent the same worthless tracking number. I replied the tracking number was worthless and they now are offering a full refund. They still claim they sent it (I know it takes less than a month to get items from Florida).

So if you snaked me on this, just let me know some how. I am not mad (all is fair in love and video game collecting). I just want to stop standing by my mail box every day hoping against hope.

Thank you for your time.

    The seller put Expedited Shipping as the shipping type too, so it should have been there in 2-3 days after shipment. Bogus man. Well hopefully now that you have the refund it will show up!

    That stinks. I completely feel your pain. You're cautiously optimistic about getting a game for such a good price and then.... someone pulls the rug out from under you!
