I was the high bidder on an auction ending 4-15-01. On 4-20, the seller finally sent me her mailing address and the final cost. On 4-22, I sent her a US Postal Money Order. I live in Michigan and she lives in Pennsylvania, so I would think that 3-4 days would be sufficient for the payment to arrive. I have heard nothing from her in regards to non payment, so apparently she has received the MO. She has not left me any feed back neither good or bad. Since April 15, she has left 53 feedback comments for other people. I emailed her on 5-01 to ask her the status of my item, she failed to respond. She has continued to list items and has several items ending in the next 24 hours. I have emailed her again today and I'm waiting for a reply. If she fails to respond, what should my next move be? Thanks in advance

Try emailing her through another auction, or send to a friend link.
Maybe your email is in outer space?
Best of luck!

Pull her contact info and give them a call. At a decent hour, I would hope.
If that doesn't work try the "send this to friend" email. Somtimes emails don't work.
My last resort would be to leave a neg, I have yet, not to get a response from the seller in each case that I have had to do that.

Is she using a free email account, or are you?\
In that case she might not be getting your messages. I have a buyer I have been trying to contact and all mail is returned. Seems his isp has email.com blocked. I had to open another email account just to email him again.
Too bad you are not my buyer-- that would have been a relief.
sorry for typos-- holding daughter and doing this one handed.

For these emails, I have used Prodigy and Outlook Express. She uses AOL. I'm not a person with loads of computer knowledge. Should I try to contact her using my Yahoo email address?

Yes - try using your yahoo account. If no response, try the "email this auction to a friend" link on the auction page. Keep trying until you run out of email accounts to try from. Lastly, you can pull the contact info., and call. I leave that one until last as it does cost $$ to call long distance.
If he/she is still listing & leaving feedback, it does sound like a possible problem with AOL not getting your emails. AOL is notorious for this. I run into probs. with AOL'ers not getting my emails on occasion, and try different accounts until one works.
