eBay usually will provide contact information about the
other party involved in a sale. In addition to the
email address, it will include their mailing address
and phone number. It would be a good idea to try all
avenues before leaving negative feedback. This is
particularly true during the holidays when persons
may be away from their email for a couple of weeks.
The first deadline to worry about is the 30-day limit
for filing a deadbeat complaint with eBay.
Good luck.
