@jimmydre

How did you pay for the item, what option did you use?

How did you fund the payment?

question answerd!!

You can't file a PayPal dispute base on what someone was supposed to do.

You can only dispute a transaction that happened and you have a choice of item not received, item not as described, or payment not authorized.

So, what are the details of the one transaction you want to dispute. 

[jimmydre]

choice of item not recieved i guess. this was more of a personal trade.

[DPCreations]

Personal trad is not a transaction.

Specifically, what are the details of the PayPal transaction?  Was it a payment or a gift?  Look at the transaction on you computer for information.

[jimmydre]

it was gift i belive

If the payment was made as family/friends/gift, then you have no recourse through PayPal.

In future don't use family/friends for purchases.

the payment was by gifting and he was trustworthy before.and  I would want to dispute for item not recieved.

@jimmydre

Can't be that trustworthy if he has scammed you and if you paid using the family / friends option then you CANNOT open a dispute for non receipt of item.
