Default Still waiting on delivery/refund from Sparco_Tom

In regards to Sparco_Tom'sfor sale thread way back in september, I am still waiting to know what is happening regards delivery/refund.

Basically the story goes;

Sept 15th - bits for sale
Oct 3rd - paypal payment sent, tom said he'd post on monday 5th
Oct 31st - I enquired about delivery as nothing had arrived. Tom replied saying he'd post asap
Dec 2nd - I enquired again about them. Tom replied saying they were parcelled up and would post them that week
Jan 6th - I ask for refund, Tom replies saying they're in the post
Jan 23rd - I pm him again asking when they were posted and by who. Tom said he'd find the receipt and it was by royal mail
Jan 29th - Tom replied saying he'd photograph the receipt for me to prove postage
Feb 1st - Pm Tom again asking about the receipt
Feb 2nd - Reply from tom saying he couldnt get a photo and that now the receipt had been posted off with a claim form. He was expecting a "very soon" about the claim...

3 weeks on im still £90 down and getting no further towards a resolution it seems

Thanks James for bringing it to my attention. I am currently using the girlfriends iPhone so when I get home to the laptop I will be in touch. A claim has been made and when it has been processed all moneys will be returned. Rather than making a thread please pm me next time. I shall chase up the claim tomorrow morning and be in touch

Not the case, all Pm's have been responded to. I do admit i haven't been able to get a copy of postage receipt to him due to no camera/camera phone or scanner.
I have also stated across the forum for about 2-3 months about my lack of phone camera and scanning facilities so it is not a ploy to make myself look better.

Royal mail are dealing with my claim request i have given all my details and that of mtpagey to them. The item does have a send to and return to address on it which i have stated in the claim.
Either item delivered or refund will be sorted according to royal mail cooperation.
I am not a thief and have and will continue to get this sorted asap.

cheers for the support guys. Please now continue to keep this thread clear for me and relevant parties to resolve this issue.
No further comments from 3rd parties are required. My feedback speaks for itself.
All comments are appreciated but now unnecessary.
Regards
Tom

Doesn't quite make sense.

Just my 2 cents.

I've been waiting 15 days for parts from Sparco_Tom...

Hasn't replied to my PM's, he said he posted them on the 11th, but who knows.

How did he get such a high/positive iTrader score?
