Finding eBay sellers phone number... is it posible?

[markbigears]

Hi all, paid for an item over a week ago, seller responded to messages, then didn't to the last one in sent. He's got 100% feedback and has a gallery on Jersey, so he might just be busy. Instead of just sending messages, i'd like to just do the old fashion method and call him to see what the deal is.
For the life of me i can't find his phone number anywhere on the ebay pages. In know they try to make it as hard as possible these days. I've googled, youtubed, but nothing, which bi thought odd. I know buyers can get vhold of your number as i had a call from a buyer only last week on an item i'd sold him.
If anyone can give me a clear instructions on where to find phone number it would be greatly appreciated. All the best, Mark

Do we know the name of this gallery?

If he has a gallery with absolutely no online footprint the conclusion seems obvious - he's set out to con you/other people. That would be an issue to raise with ebay

Business seller or private?

Just report it via ebay and get your money back?

Thanks all, i've been trying to find the shop online in Jersey, He said his name was Neil, but at the moment have no luck. I spoke to ebay, they said just to cancel the order. I've messaged again but I think he must have sold it on for more money. Oh well. Strange, he has 122 pos feedback, only one neg.

Raise that with your card company and stick a negative review on him?

Just open an item not received case, unless he responds with tracking showing as delivered to your house, you'll get a refund.

It would be worth checking but i think it goes against eBay's rules if you go outside of their messaging system. you could loose your buyer protection.

If you've bought and paid, give Ebay a call and ask whether they have a number for him. They only get arsy about direct contact when they haven't been paid.

Already have, they don’t have a phone number for him. I’ve messaged him again. I’ll give it a couple of days then cancel the order. Thanks all
