Don't purchase items from Ebay.

I purchased an item online in June 2018 expecting it by August 2018 and I did not receive it. The seller insisted that he would send another or refund me and till date I have not received both. After contacting eBay for a refund I was informed that they could not assist me as the term has passed. Which is complete bull****. It's their SELLER. I was asked to contact PayPal for a refund and that has ventured into nothing as well as they have been unable to assist me as well. I would not recommend to purchase anything from ebay.
